Dining Room Fixed Up








After the failed attempt at reupholstering the wing chair I needed a pick-me-up so Mom helped me redo the dining room table. I bought this adorable metal teacup rack in Cape Cod last summer and I love it. I put some teacups on it and a teapot set Mom gave me. Then I put the not-to-eat cupcakes on a footed glass dish and walah! The dining room looks so nice and Spring-like, Easter-like.

I was thinking about hanging up some hearts for Valentine's and found some pink heart paper doilies. I put 3 together and stitched them down the middle. Then I pulled them apart. I left a long thread on them when I sewed them and hung them up from a grapevine I have hanging up between the dining room and the kitchen. (good example of a run-on sentence)

  1. The paper doillies are a huge hit with me...I can't wait to try that. I was thinking of asking for a tutorial but even I can handle this! Your table is beautiful...what is the china pattern...I absolutely love it...from one bird watcher to another. I couldn't get that link to work but I think my computer is just slow. That will be fun to follow.

    And your china is gorgeous. I just love how you have it displayed.

  3. It's not really a china set. I bought these pretty bird teacups several years ago at an antique shop.
