At Canton I walked in Laurie Sigler's gorgeous booth..The first thing I heard and saw were birds singing tweettweettweettweet...and hopping around the top of her booth ceiling~ I thought OK, she's got it going on in here...real birds that are singing to us...This is the best darn stuff that I've ever seen! Makes me want to sit down and cry it's so fantastic! I had to buy...I bought this tall ironstone frog flower vase~ I'm not sure of the proper name for it..but OMGOSH..I'm going to love displaying flowers in it. These daisies are *happy*! I also bought the little birds nest plate rest~ I love how thick they are...Yes, I'll be going back to see Laurie again~ You can also find Laurie at Canton Trades Day...LaurieAnna's Vintage Home Arbor 2. www.laurieannas.com
btw: SHE IS BEAUTIFUL!
And the birds...were just little birds that found an opening in the top of Laurie's booth ceiling~ they just wanted to spend the day in a beautiful booth.

That flower frog vase is going to be so much fun to use! I just love how it spreads the flowers out. Those birds nest place rests are amazing! That' so cool about the birds.

How cool! Is that a bird napkin ring on the plate? And your cups hanging from your chandelier. Oh, my gosh! I had to look up to see if I could hang some from mine... but sadly I cannot.

Oh my Gosh Tina!- Now that is a beautiful item you got!- and the birds, how sweet!-- I think that they call a "flog-"vase like that an "Epergine."-Now I see it is called {above} a "Tulipiere."I don't care what they call it, I just know it is gorgeous and I want one too!- I LOVE the way you did up your table with the birds & nests!-Perfect!. Now is it prounounced "FLOG or FROG"?Ha- I've been saying "FLOG" for years.?!,Valery

What adorable nests! Pictures of her site are incredible! Next time I visit my brother in McKinney, I'm going to make a point of visiting Canton Trades Days myself! I love seeing what you've found there!

Wow - this is just a neat table. I love your new white "frog" vase and the DR chairs are TDF. Wherever did you find the birdnest charger or did you make them. Your home just makes me smile inside - it feels wonderful. I know I would love living there - its so cheerful and homey.
