Spring Dining Room in Blue and White - dinner anyone?

One of my sisters encouraged me to enter some pics of our DR in a blog linky party.  I decided why the hell not.  So I set a Spring table, shoot some pics and then find out the super blogger is no longer taking pics of other's dining rooms - she had already received her mother load. 

Just as well, since I am not a super blogger and really only post for my girlfriends and 9 followers.  Big smile.That being said, I am happy that the room is finally finished and my table is now set.  I smell a dinner party!  Called, emailed and texted (everyone has their own preferred form of communication these days!) and will enjoy my DR every time I walk by it, until the guests get here this weekend.

So here's the Spring fever DR, spruced up with blue and white.



I love my flowers in the HomeGoods trophy vase and my archived Waterford glasses next to my Dollar store water goblets.  The Waterford was purchased more than 20 yrs ago, on a trip to England when the dollar was almost even to the pound.  Those really were the good old days.  I also love my blue/white Blue Willow plates found at a thrift store for $2 a plate.  In fact almost all the blue white dishware in the entire room was found for very little at Goodwill, SA, car boots and a favorite local consignment shop.
 
 

The wine is already in the wine cooler.  All's well that ends well.
