MY GRANDMOTHER'S 1920's CHAMBER'S STOVE

 My family saved this 465 pound 1920's stove for me for almost 40 years. My grandmother would look at it and say, "Ah, my proud beauty." I remember her cooking on it. I had it restored and put in my new kitchen.  I love it.

WELCOME SPRING TABLESCAPE

Sky blue and green are welcome colors after a long winter.
Mint in my grandmother's pitcher is an easy fresh centerpiece.
 Candy eggs set in moss reminds us of new life in spring.
 The table is an antique scrub top.  Blue quail from Furnivals set on woven Crate and Barrel placemats give a relaxed feel.  Green dishes from Walmart brighten the look.
 A sweet bluebird provides the seasoning.
