Love red checks and Pottery Barn bird
Well, I got my red checked tablecloth out--it just makes me happy---something about red gingham makes me feel homey and smiley
The above ornament is a new one from Pottery Barn--I want to start collecting birds for the tree. I love birds and watch them from one of my windows here, as I always have lol
above is a bad shot of the tree--got the strands lopsided! ah well. Oh yes, and we did get rid of the big old low hanging light in the dining area so now I can move that table and resize it without the leafs any ole time.
And of course a fire is going since the weather has now turned cool (lol---this is a fake tv version---still gives a nice feeling. Some days you have to just take time to play a bit!
My mini monkeys are quite happy under the tree too!

Red gingham so cozy...am I remembering a blue theme in the dining soon after you moved in here?
ReplyDeleteWell, I like the red-- the check and the toile.
Nice fireplace. Is that really a TV/video version. I've seen those at dept. stores in the electronics department.
Yours looked real..I'd have never known if you hadn't said.
The PB bird is cute. I think birds on the tree would be so pretty...
enjoy the weekend. Pat
Hi darling, I adore red and white, it's just so cheerful. Your tree is wonderful. I'm deathly afraid of birds, however, I have a Pheasant tree in the dining room, this is the 4 year for it, I still love it.. lol I'm not sure if you saw it or not, I believe it was the post before the kitchen. hugs ~lynne~
ReplyDeleteI love your red and white gingham tablecloth. I have a set, including serviettes, I have never used, maybe I will get them out and use on Christmas Day - if it fits the table.
ReplyDeleteYour tree is lovely.
Keep warm.
Blessings,
