"Spring" by Nancy Thomas
A whimsical piece that hangs in our upstairs sunroom.
Spring in central Texas has taken
its time, but I think it has finally arrived.
As our days are longer and warmer,
I find myself out in the garden.
Bird songs echo from trees above
as birds call out in search of a mate.
In honor of Cuisine Kathleen's April Challenge
~ Birds ~ Eggs ~ Nests ~
I took my table-setting out
to the garden among the flowers.
This cute little bird on a cage
is meant to hold a votive.
I repurposed it as a vase and filled it
with hydrangea blooms for the garden tray.
With the nesting theme in mind,
I pulled out a set of plates with a twiggy border.
The plates are by Jeremie.
They are oval shape with a textured twig border.

These spring time napkins were a thrifty find
at Tuesday Morning. I bought a dozen for
less than the original price of a set of four.
Vintage napkin ring
with a sterling "B" for bird
and silver mother of pearl flatware.
Couldn't resist this cute little dish.
It's perfect for serving
savory flakes of Lemon Sea Salt.
