I always love kitchen cabinets where you can look at the plates.
I take great delight in looking at china.

Hey Harriet said...

These are lovely glimpses into your beautiful home. More please! Is your home always so neat & tidy? I'm thinking it probably is :)

What a happy home..I enjoy homes that show love and warmth..

Callooh Callay said...

This is wonderful--I've always wanted my house to look like it could be in a magazine (but not one of those sterile, Architectural Digest homes where no one really lives).

It is so true about our homes, our total nucleus...

Oh lovely! I really like the little vignette with the birdhouse! And I'm dying to know - did they bring in many props, or just rearrange what you already had? Or is your house always so cute? :)

Donna brought the flowers...some from the market, oodles of roses from her garden. The rest is all mine :-)
