There's just something about cherries that make you want to smile.
Those bright red little orbs add such life and vibrancy to even the simplest of vignettes.
Wonder how they would look in my antique English ironstone tureen?
Hmmm...that looks nice. But I think I'll add a few more things.
I love the shape of my old English ironstone pitcher.
I think I'll add it as well.
Perhaps while I'm at it, I'll change out the vintage lace-trimmed napkin for a vintage white-on-white embroidered tablecloth.
These green glass candlesticks aren't very old, but they'll work to give me another pop of color.
And I think I'll add a couple of drippy candles to the mix, as well.
Perfect!
The vintage pie server–barely visible in the foreground–is the Yankee's reminder that I'm suppose to be making a pie with those cheery cherries, not decorating with them.
Oh, well. I'll enjoy them now as decoration...
and later as dessert.

ReplyDeleteThose are the most gorgeous cherries I have ever seen in a photo. Some great work here. Love the white ironstone. Our first granddaughter is getting married this weekend and I am giving her a piece of my stoneware as a wedding gift. I always served her favorite Orange salad in it when she came to visit. Thanks for stopping by. blessings
