Before we can get to the table full of china, I have to tell you how we got there : ) We ordered this piece of artwork for the niche in our sitting room that has sat empty for far too long (four years to be exact). Josh hung it on Saturday and it is perfect! As we were appreciating it we couldn't help but say how nice it would look if we had a buffet in the niche under it. So on a whim today we went out to look at buffets just to get an idea, and we found "the one." Now I don't say that lightly because for the aforementioned four years I have been looking for a buffet that would work in that spot and have come up empty handed; because, although I could find some gorgeous stuff, I am not willing to spend $4,500 on a single piece of furniture. Our buffet will be delivered this week and I will post photos to show how spiffy the one we found is. It is (as Josh said) a grandma's buffet. Not because it is old fashioned or anything but because it has the neatest hidden drawers and compartments to hold silverware and stemware. Anyway, now that we finally have a place to put it all, I can get my china out!!! Yippee!! As you may already know I have a bit of an obsession with china and have two fab. sets one of which belonged to my grandmother.
This is a pattern I picked out, it is simple but very pretty
