Detail of Silver Bride's Basket
Saturday was the inaugural of Food for Thought, an exciting new blog launched by Jain @ Once in a Blue Moon. I found myself absorbed in creating a post to share about VAN GOGH'S TABLE AT THE AUBERGE RAVOUX and let time escape. Then I suddenly realized that it's once again time for Silver Sunday. As one who definitely likes silver, I have enjoyed visiting all the Silver Sunday posts of the past two weeks. Beth only plans to host this meme through February 7, and I didn't want to miss this week. I suddenly found myself polishing silver and thinking about what I might share. 
Silver Bride's Basket
Well, with time of the essence and Valentine's Day just a few weeks away, I decided to reach into my photo files for a bit of silver with a touch of Valentine's Day.
Collection of Heart Shaped Candy Boxes, Including Mary Engelbreit Designs
Silver Bride's Basket with Heart Shaped Candy Boxes
Click here to read my review about VAN GOGH'S TABLE AT THE AUBERGE RAVOUX if you are interested. I highly recommend this book for those who are lovers of art, food, and France. And I highly recommend a visit to Food for Thought where you will find delightfully "edible" book reviews.
Thanks to our delightful hostess Beth @ Gypsy Fish Journal. Click here to see a list of all who have a Silver Sunday post for this week.

Placing the heart shaped boxes in your siver dishes is one of those simple ideas that creates a such a pretty tabletop vignette and shows just how much style & panache you have.
ReplyDeleteI watch & learn, dear friend.
Have a great SS.
