I just love the French-ness of this flatware, and the charm of the fleur de lis at the ends.
Elegant with European rustic charm to it's relaxed timeless appeal.
"I love them tarnished"
Beautiful flatware, glassware, pottery and linens set to style with a distressed dusting of whites.
English sterling serving spoons add the right kind of rightness when it comes to entertaining
guest with European flea market style.
I was gifted the sterling silver serving spoons passed down to me from family, and they are treasured.
( Thank you M.H )
I find the most important things in my home are relaxed that suggest a casual restful feel like wrinkled linen lap napkins, a detail to a soulful rustic setting that nothing is meant to be that perfect...
(Except for the whipped cream)
Living and entertaining with whites, whitens the greyer days of winter.

You are so right--white does brighten grey winter days!
You have made such beautiful images of simple things. It's an art.
Oh ma chère amie,
je viens de découvrir le plaîsir d'avoir tels objets de beauté chez moi. J'ai acheté un plateau en argent sur lequel je place mes assiettes blanches, comme toi. Quelle joie, de se calmer dans un petit coin, avec une bonne tasse de thé ou de café et apprecier telles choses.
GROSSES BISES! Anita

So much beauty in the simple and everyday when we take the time to notice. Love the quote about gratitude!

My word for the year is 'let go',
I will be carrying your words around with it.....ahhhhhhh
Beautiful repose for any time of the year or day. Your photography is lovely with your new camera. I don't think I will ever have the money to invest in one. But I am happy with my canon power shot. It's simple and I can manage simple.
Absolutely beautiful Dore!! I have a collection of vintage silver that I've picked up here and there over the years, but how special it is to have some passed down to you!
Hope your doing well, and have a lovely day!
Sincerely,
Melinda
Beautiful post.. I love old silverware and have quite a collection going on... Have a great day!

I tried to return to your site taking notice that your site address email was not on your profile. See you soon!

So pretty Dore...I have some cherished silver pieces from my Mom and grandmothers and love to mix them with pieces I find treasure hunting.
Et comme j'adore ce billet, plein de gris, d'argent, de blanc. Ma chère amie, merci d'être venue sans mot dire; ça me convient très bien car le coeur n'a pas de paroles, mais des actions qui parlent plus fort.
BISOUS! Anita
Dore I love your sentiments towards the special items you have, what is meaningful to you.

Hi Dore,
I just love vintage silver pieces.
You are so fortunate to have those gorgeous family treasures.
Fresh white linens are so versatile, at once elegant and comforting. A white cloud on a gray day.
Hugs to you,

There is nothing better than white dishes and silver!! Beautiful post...I could dream for awhile, thank you!!!
Such a lovely vignette. Some people have the talent...dreamy too!
I just received the spring 2013 magazine Romantic Country for my store here in Berlin, Germany, we are a little bit behind the schedule regarding magazines releases from the US. But I just want to let you know that I adore the pictures of your beautiful home and of course late congrats :-) Best of luck, Carolina
Lovely photos and beautiful thoughts, Dore.
Perfect.
Such beautiful images and words to go with them! It's amazing and wonderful how such simple things can inspire us daily. Your linens, silver and ironstone are all beauties! I love your last words. So perfect and true!

Wonderful and beautiful!
Have a great day.
So inviting Dore :) I have both my mom's and my grandmother's old silver. Treasured items. A beautiful post!
Blessings,

There IS such beauty in the simplest pieces:) Sometimes designers take the simple, soft, "come sit here" feel out of a room by making it too precise and new looking. Your flatware is gorgeous and looks lovely against the white. I agree about the relaxed feel of a home:) ..except for whipped cream!

Good evening dear Dore,

Wishing you a joyful week ahead.
bisous!

Such an inspiring post Dore. So much beauty in simple things.
I LOVE tarnished silver too, shiny is beautiful, but tarnished is timeless!
Beautiful post filled with simple beauty...
