Butterflies and a French Message Board

I love doing things "themed" with nature, especially in the Spring.

Little green shoots and buds have me all excited.

So when I was thinking about Debbie's Copy Cat Challenge,

I of course wanted it to be something that echoed the essence of Spring.

I keep this French Ribboned Message Board

on my computer desk with notes and photos and cards.

I had to edit it a little to make it photo-worthy,

then I added the little paper butterflies.

Just the right amount of Springy-ness.

My younger daughter loves to "embellish" and personalize her notes.

makes them more special...

Here is my inspiration,

Victoria Magazine, May 2001 cover.

Debbie's kicking off a week of Spring time fun.

Be sure and check out the other copy cats at the party.

Give Away with French Bleu Vintage

Dee and French Bleu Vintage need no introduction for many of us. But if you haven't had the pleasure of shopping her Online Store, I want to share a place where you can go to find "vintage" at it's finest. Dee stocks one-of-a-kind "found" antiques and collectibles that you won't see anywhere else, and she is also now carrying a line of wonderful home decor items with a Country French flair.

This French Country Footed Plate is my personal favorite.
Use it for special occasions where dessert needs to take center stage or
as a base for a cloche to show off treasures.

This Rustic Conservatory,

 perfect for tabletop display, is one of the items in her

New Spring 2012 Collection.

The design and script fabric on this gorgeous Crown motif pillow

would go perfectly on a linen sofa or chair.

Just imagine adding this American Beauty Collection Vintage China

to your existing floral dishes for a wonderful Spring tablescape.

And can you ever have too much ironstone?

 This Maddok Ironstone Pitcher would be perfect for holding

 a fresh Spring bouquet.

Dee is giving away a $25 Gift Certificate
