Winter Cloche

I'm seeing all of ya'lls amazing cloche displays
and still no magic here...I'm still trying though.
Here's the 1st use of a jar my mom gave me for Christmas.

I got the SweeT tag off of a packaging label and the ribbon at Dollar Tree
and the hearts from JoAnns Fabric.
This is a message in a bottle from a dear friend...cute idea.
Cheese dome from a resale shop purchase on top of a William Sonoma clearance
pastry plate filled with cotton from Mowfield Plantation (In laws farm)
I begged her to send me some and she was curious as to what
I wanted to do with it. 

The best for last....my dreams of an Easter Tablescape.
My ruffly hearts that match the ruffled salad plates.
This is a HUGE cloche from North Carolina furninture market when we got our
couch set on the way to the farm several yrs ago. (another shameless beg)
Hubby bought me the dishes when we were antiquing on the
Eastern Shore that match these salad plates.

Can you believe that we found them.  Can't wait to put it all together.
He was in disbelief that we came across yet another
set of dishes that I could not leave at the store. : ) 

Cloche & Pink Love, DeniseMarie

Can't wait to see what ya'll have put together at:

  2. Oh I just love your bottles. The one with the hearts is just too cute an idea and the message in a bottle is such a precious and thoughtfully cute gift. Love it. The cotton brought back such sweet memories. My parents use to raise cotton on their farm about a million years ago. I still have some of that cotton. Now as for the dishes, I am most certainly drooling. They are just wonderful with the ruffled edges. I can't wait to see the tablescape you do. Thanks so much for joining the cloche party. This is so much fun. Hugs, Marty

  5. I love the cotton cloche. What a clever idea to use fresh cotton as decor, it works perfectly. I wish I had a farm around here to buy some like that.

  9. The sweet raggedy Ann doll brings back such memories. I loved my Raggedy Ann when I was a child. I wish I still had her. Your heart shaped bowls are so pretty. Everything tastes better in pink. Have a great week. Terri

  16. Hi Denise Marie:
    Of all the beautiful things on this post, I have to say I love the cotton balls the most. I've longed to have some in my very own hands. When we've driven from FL to VA in the fall, I always see fields of them and wish we could stop so I could purloin just a handful. Lucky that your in-laws have a whole farm of cotton!
    xoxo
