I was excited to find just what I was looking for…<i>purple violas! </i>Are you familiar with them? They are little teensy-weensy pansies. In fact, they almost look like violets to me. I planted them in some simple white egg cups that I found at Ross (6 for<b> $4.00</b>) several months ago and had been saving to share with you! <i>Love them!</i> :-)<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUrIbwfgDvg6TkWJYFr1VkrtWJMA6TQpebbI151iJnitdWADY2hZvCQb24nYRjw1gwsbv_H8HtTbM3D5be2Lm3l0opKTqgxOv1fro427Er452cA-IXGEFQmiHOAInWKbPLoHKyDROYu0W0/s1600-h/CONFESSIONS%252520OF%252520A%252520PLATE%252520ADDICT%252520French%252520Spring%252520Vignette3%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img alt="CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Vintage French Spring Vignette" border="0" height="684" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3384hdFbDtjdntm_E75H7tktV3jY-jLF_DMuAK6Ai4Xan7fu8F3HYRj760fmV9q-Iw2q6QNNPuhl0rVwj37j7WaD42ZbwL_6mPVYtJvClzbhqGwq5gnEYhtYzjcwt7wlgvtI3Mtasqr8a/?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Vintage French Spring Vignette" width="625" /></a>I also love the new little<i> faux</i> chalkware lamb that I found at <a href="http://www.wisteria.com/Chalkware-Lamb/productinfo/T10693/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><i>Wisteria</i></a><i>.</i> Isn’t he adorable?
