Happy Spring !!!


Not much needs to be said. The colors and the beauty of the roses speak for themselves.

I am so lucky to have found such pretty things on my antiquing jaunts (and at Target...) over the years and to be able to see such beauty everyday. It never fails to put a smile on my face.

I hope I've brought a little sunshine into your life and put a smile on your face today.

Happy Spring to you all !!!

    Hi Kim!

    What pretty plates! I have always wanted to take a china painting class; when my daughter gets old enough I am going to sign us up! I really can't get enough of looking at my plates that are similar to the ones you show here. It seems so mysterious the way a painter can make a few dabs with their brush and it looks like a real rose!

    Have a good day!
