Another Gift Comes Together


I happened across these melamine pieces for a few scant dollars.


Then I found these little cuties....


Which I thought would go just right in this vintage picnic basket.


Add a good book in an old early edition hard back.....


Hem an old blanket scrap from some friends fabric stash....
And you have a romantic vintage picnic set.
The first pieces were found in April and I have been gathering gradually all year as the right thing came along. It's unique, one of a kind and very cost effective.

  6. Wow that melamine set takes me back, that was our family set when I was a kid back in the 60s. I think either melamine was trendy or my parents used it so we couldn't break it! I will never forget that design! Thanks for you blog, I love reading it, Julia
