A bright and breezy daffodil tea set!
Then I dug out a favourite table cloth beautifully embroidered with spring flowers..
(charity shop a few years ago which was under £4)
Then I got two pots of Tete a tete from the garden and squeezed placed them
in my 60p basket from a few weeks ago..
Added the tea/coffee pot I got the other week,
(£1.50 charity shop)
'found' some long forgotten lovely (hand emroidered with sweet spring flowers)
linen napkins
Ta-dah! A smiling Spring table :o)
Then, still being a little bored (!) I thought I'll re-dress the dresser
I haven't seen so little on it for at least a couple of years - other than on cleaning day ;o)
My tea set plus another favourite sandwich plate that I've had for
more years than I care to remember, purchased for about 50p
from a car boot sale.
(What makes you think I LOVE daffodils?)
I've had this 1940's Burlington vase for just as many years, I'm pretty sure it was
from a Car boot sale too...certainly not more than £1
There's always a drawback to moving stuff round though....
What on earth am I going to do with this lot now?
!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have a great week everyone
Best wishes to all

Pretty things can sure brighten a day!
Rose,
You've really done a splendid job on your table and dresser. I love all your beautiful dishes and the tea set is just lovely. I love all the linens you have that coordinate so well with each other. What a great way to brighten your day. Hope you feel better soon.
Thanks for your visit and sweet comments. Have a great "rest of the week"!

Thanks for popping over to my blog. Daffodils are such spectacular flowers. After the darkness of winter come these bright yellow trumpets - real eye-catchers. Spring has sprung in your household, obviously. The china is wonderful. xx
What a lovely Spring display! Your dishes are beautiful, the daffodils are so cheery. We love that tablecloth and those napkins! The embroidery is so pretty!

Your dishes are so cheerful and the hutch display looks wonderful. It really makes me yearn for Spring. It has been raining here all day and been dark and dismal.
I LOVE the tablecloth and napkins. That's one of the prettiest sets I've seen and it looks so nice with your dishes. I love the lower pics with the blue Calico pieces too.
I am sorry for not replying sooner to your email about my not posting for awhile. I am ok and so appreciate your thoughtfulness in checking in on me.

Hi Rose
thanks for visiting me - I really must make the efort now! I love your daffys - quite cheered me up on another depressing day. I'm going to take a leaf out of your book and make the house more springlike - a photo opportunity I think!
If it's not Spring outside, you can have it inside, love your Daffodil things.
