vintage elegance
April 1, 2010 A very pretty Thursday place setting:





Unfortunately, these little treasures were a flea market find. Completely adorable vintage eggs. But these eggs from MS would make an amazing replacement. I set this up as a formal dinner, accenting the plates with a doily, colored saucer, and completing it with a messy raffia nest. What do you think? Does this win the prize, favorite of the week?

I love the way this looks! The colors and everything. Great flea market find! Kinda makes me wish I was hosting Easter this year...thanks for the post!
OH my goodness. This is my favorite. And it's not even Friday! This makes me want to do a nest-themed wedding like, tomorrow. Such a good idea with the raffia!
SO BEAUTIFUL! sigh...
this would be way cute with the egg from Tuesday too!
this is my fave of the week :) i really liked the stamped egg too...
Hey, I just stumbled onto your page and love it! You have some great post and have really provided me with some inspiration for the future. Thanks! :) I've definitely saved this journal for later. :)
You could replace the antique egg with a hand dyed boiled egg or a chocolate filled egg (something I have been wanting to try). Your idea for stamping names on eggs could also work here. There are so many possibilities! Love the nest!
