Lily of the Valley MUST grow in Heaven...

I hope you ladies don't mind if I test out my new blog with a LITTLE something special to me... I've been trying to get organized to start interacting in ALL THIS FUN and I want to test a few pictures to see if they go through... I'll keep my fingers crossed and HERE WE GO......and of course, WHO could not love a paper thin "Shelley Cup & Saucer"... I happened on a set of 8 of these at a consignment shop and only paid $10... I RAN home and pinched myself ALL the way to see if I was Dreaming! I wasn't BUT this gorgeous set is definitely a "Dream"

Donna@Conghaile Cottage said...: "Thank you Lovely Ladies"... This is FUN and FRUSTRATING all in one step. It's challenging at first, especially when "we are all perfectionists at what we do"..."UGH"... I CAN'T get the FONT correct and it's driving me CRAZY...
AND YES Ceekay, I KNOW there is shrimp in Heaven too!!! Wow what a combo, "Lily of the Valley & Shrimp"!!! Can we put that into a table scape???; July 20, 2010 at 11:11 AM
