It has been a crazy week in Atlanta…iced in for several days, an earthquake and now temperatures in the 70s! Yes…you read that right…the 70s! :-) Gotta love winter in Georgia! And with the first sign of spring, my urge to decorate with even more blue and yellow comes out…such happy colors to me!
Sooo…I have created a new centerpiece for the breakfast room starring a two-tiered basket that I can’t wait to share! My friend Linda at Nina’s Nest and I had headed north to hit the outlet mall…Pottery Barn and Williams Sonoma in particular, but…horrors!…both stores were closed to take inventory! We stared through the window likes kids in a candy shop to no avail. 
But fortunately, Linda went back the next day and got that basket for me from Williams-Sonoma…at a fabulous bargain price! Gotta love good friends!
So I loaded it up with some of my favorite blue and white pieces…like this pitcher filled with faux daffodils…too early yet for the real ones.
And I added my Wedgwood Queen’s Shape sugar and creamer filled with some vintage silverplate in my favorite grapey patterns.
I stacked up a few of the matching cups on some blue and white Spode and vintage Wedgwood dessert plates…
…and finished it off with my little French jam jar…also a bargain find at Williams-Sonoma from last year.
Add in a few toile napkins, more vintage flatware and Spode salt and pepper shaker and…taaa daaa!…a little bit of spring has come to rest on my table! It makes me smile!
And speaking of resting…our Miss Isabella is stretched out as far as her little portly self can stretch to take advantage of every inch of sunshine that is streaming in! Now that is a very hopeful sign of spring!
