With the arrival of March, I was
excited to reset the dining area table
with the green transferware that I
have been collecting.
This is actually a Battenberg
bed cover I am using for a table
cloth which explains the deeper
drop on the sides. The topper is linen
with brighter green cutwork embroidery.
I have two sizes of tablecloths that
my Grandmother embroidered for me shortly after I was married
56 years ago. There are 2 sets of
embroidered napkins too.
I used some of the stained
napkins to make
a tea cozy years ago.
I find green transferware hard to find
and especially this Johnson Brothers
pattern called "The Florentine".
was my most
recent find:
We still had somesnow a few days
ago but we have
also enjoyed some
warmer days and
everyone is looking
forward to spring.
You are soooo ready for spring, Bernideen! And your gorgeous table does not *scream* green, it's a perfect balance, making the table look light and fresh. I think a lot of people would go out and buy green glasses and just overdo it.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful! You have such a talent for decorating and table setting! Your collections are always a treat to see! Thanks for sharing and come on Spring. Best, Virginia
