First off, thanks so much for your visit an...Libby,<br />First off, thanks so much for your visit and kind words. I am a Victorian soul and have had my "Good Stuff" out for years. I leanred a lesson from my mother who always saved things for "an Occasion". She received many beautiful night gowns and robes but saved them in case she would have to go to the hospital and be a patient. When she did end up in the hospital before she passed away, all she could wear was hospital gowns because she was so ill. So when she passed away, we were left with all the things that she had saved for a special occassion but never used and still had the tags on. <br />I swore that this would not be me. I use my china, my gold flatware and my crystal. After all, I have 2 sons so Lord knows where it all will go after I am gone. So I might as well enjoy it while I am still here!! <br />I do have a lot of antique pieces that are worth a few bucks and i don't want my sons to sell them at a yard sale for a quarter! I plan on putting the price that they are worth on a small sticky tag on the bottom of each piece so if and when something happens to me, they will at least be able to make a bit of money off my madness!! LOL!!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />DebDebbie-Dabble Blog and A Debbie-Dabble Christmashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09393980831584145593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7689804938550827918.post-25640953673400647952013-01-08T07:45:50.007-06:002013-01-08T07:45:50.007-06:00Personally I love the silver, and I'm a big fa...Personally I love the silver, and I'm a big fan of tea services in all styles, shapes, and design. It definitely injects a bit of shine into the dullness of winter.

Lemony and limey colours are just sooo very fresh looking...JJudithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16406164663751567997noreply@blogger.com
