    Oh my, these look great! What an easy and inexpensive way to get the look of ironstone. You are so right…no one will be able to tell the difference with them placed high.

    I agree with all of the above. Your home looks beautiful and your project looks like the real (pottery barn) thing. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Can I ask what shade of yellow you've used in your room? My main floor is all yellow but I'm thinking of changing it to a slightly more buttery shade. If that makes sense?

    I found you from the CSI Project. I think these vases look great! I always see TONS of those at Goodwill and I have a buncha vases from flower arrangements given to me. Now I know something I could do with them! Hmm….now to figure out where to put them.

    I enjoyed looking around your blog. I hope you'll come visit me too. http://www.imsimplysarah.blogspot.com
