The Hummels add a special touch, and I like the way the light hit the one that "wants to tell us something!" That silverware is gorgeous. I think my aunt had that same china.

My husband bought me one for Christmas for a few years when we were first married (until I asked him to stop). I would never have thought of using them on the table, but I like the look. <br /><br />SueSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03190096917851087676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3505841051755948862.post-77132984730090371562009-12-31T13:23:38.094-08:002009-12-31T13:23:38.094-08:00Greetings Bill!

They fit perfectly in the setting. Papa Dan loves the table as well and is upset that I did not think of using the Hummels this way. Thanks alot Bill*smile*.

I LOVE them all because many were my grandmother's, some came from a favorite uncle, and my late husband used to surprise me with them. I even bought a few myself in Grand Lake when I finished the school year as a "reward".<br /><br />I appreciate all the effort you put into making our visits so delightful and Marilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13116154641827479893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3505841051755948862.post-23977801861464611282009-12-31T10:47:11.874-08:002009-12-31T10:47:11.874-08:00Happy New Year!

I absolutely would die for that flatware (Of course then it wouldn't do me much good would it?). It's so pretty. I also liked how you used both tablescloths and covered the seam with a runner. Very clever. Thanks for sharing that tip.Dream Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18351348027973964625noreply@blogger.com
