Yvie your China tea set is beautiful and so delicate it looks similar to a part one which I have .it is not marked but I think it's Victorian
Your style goes well , and the candles really do add to the eera ,just the right way to display.
Bekke, can't wait for the recipe. I know I may have to make double quantity one to eat now AND one for the freezer ! Things happen like that in our house !
Thanks for all you nice comments about the china, for years I tried to find a teapot that matched until I read that china made before a certain date never had teapots as you were expected to serve the tea from a silver teapot. La de da.
I used to go for very plain decor but now I do add a bit of colour. Only the chimney breast is wallpapered and the curtains match, the rest of the walls are in parchment a period ivory colour. Im a bit of a cushion freak so have quite a few that pick out the blue and the gold colour in the china.
Dont know how we got talking about this on Senior Moments thread, it belongs on the Shabby Chic thread really.
Sorry about your cancelled trip runnybeak and hope tomorrow goes ahead, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you
Yviestevie lovely china and if it wasn't for the lure of alcohol chat on this thread I would have missed it
Oh and cheesecake
Contrary to believe OL I have never tried any of those drinks, I was always harder than that I drank gin and tonic till it didn't work anymore than scotch and lemonade till my BF and I were barred!! OMG how bad is that, lead a much quieter life style now
I've knocked more than a few pounds off on occasion, I think of it as saving hubby the worry of realising how much I spend on the house. Runnybeak you should try Homesense if you have one by you, it's the home division of TK Maxx and they have some fabulous one offs.
