I haven't even worked up the courage to do a roast. you and R are inspiring me!!!Allahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01681196524762093142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6176678852780758737.post-66669791205295316952013-04-04T11:55:38.941-04:002013-04-04T11:55:38.941-04:00Thanks so much, AMB!

Ambiance all the way! ;) And, I love wee bud vases in little collections, that's a nice idea, too!<br /><br />Chargers are Sur La Table, but plates were purchased 8 years ago from Ross Simmons. They don't have them anymore, but if you search "Deruta dinnerware" on any other site (I'm sure Sur La Table, Macy's, etc. will have them), you'll find similar patterns. I love mine because they were painted in Italy, but fired in Portugal. :)J {*sparklingly}https://www.blogger.com/profile/01208546372229418080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6176678852780758737.post-69406336818048149942013-04-03T21:46:18.373-04:002013-04-03T21:46:18.373-04:00and just a big WELL DONE on pulling it all off! and just a big WELL DONE on pulling it all off!

I am totally the ambience maker as well so i totally get what you mean. I geek out about what guests see when they first walk in... (candles to draw them in of course! :) - Flowers in every nook and cranny... i have my special spots where i put bud vases so that they are small (dont need huge bouquets, but special enough for interesting small arrangements) ... flowers are like happy makers! I try go have fresh flowers every week in some capacity! - love your plates... sur la table?M @ LiveLikeYoureTraveling.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01064483992513616255noreply@blogger.com
