corner hutch...

I needed some color in the dining room, so this corner hutch was brought into the dining room to hold my favorite collection of antique Mexican pottery....

i love the bird motif - each one hand painted -

the smaller dessert plates are corralled into a lined basket - along with a plate we unearthed when digging in the ground here at the farm...it has a large chunk taken out of the bottom...so that's why it's in the back 

these old blue mason jars are great for a quick flower arrangement or to hold some silver ice cream spoons and knives....

this bowl was my grandmother's when she was alive...it's English...and so delicate...

i dream of making pottery someday....i love how Mexican pottery is hand done....rustic...personal....and hand crafted....

on the bottom shelf I am displaying some of my collection of antique French linens....

overall...it's doing the trick....for now at least....and I love having the little pillow Maria gave me as a gift, sitting on my son's high chair....

it really is the best smelling lavender pillow....

 (I might be tiring of the red fabric I slip covered on my dining room chairs though...if this baby doesn't come soon...maybe I should just re-do them no?)

have a wonderful day!
