When words escape...

When words escape, flowers speak. ~ Bruce W. Currie

Talk to me! This weekend was just beautiful in South Louisiana; 77 degrees on Saturday! I had so much fun playing in the dirt! I have ambitious plans for the garden and started some seeds. I planted them in pots that can be transplanted when the ground warms up a little more. I'll let you know how it goes!
The fruit stand had the most beautiful strawberries! Had to snap a few shots. I had planned to make strawberry bread, but the berries never last long enough! Gotta buy more next time.

I won this pretty milk glass bowl at an estate auction recently! Love it. We're planning to attend another this weekend ~ looking forward to the excitement! I wonder what we'll find....
Take care,
Shelly

Be My Valentine

Chic and Shabby Home and Make Mine Pink is the place to find a fantastic Pink Friday shopping experience ~ Each week Chic and Shabby Home and the participating boutiques at Make Mine Pink will feature theme coordinated items ~ Shop from the comfort of home ~ Each Friday items to fit this week's theme will be added. This week's theme is Be My Valentine.

I have a special place in my heart for dresser boxes......they are beautiful and oh so girly! I especially love this porcelain box it has such a beautiful bouquet of roses.

Same box different vignette!

This silver dresser box was in the window of an antique shop - I had to have it!

I love the red velvet lining and especially the claw feet.
I found this 1940's dresser box at a flea market out of state on a trip! The portrait on the top is perfect for Valentines Day!

Hope you have a great weekend!
