I see some pretty things. The ceramic hurricanes are nice but look big and I don't really have a good place to put them. The little glass ones are cute. May have to pick one or two up depending on price, but still not sure where to put them. But they seem small enough they could fit several places. The mosaic figures are neat, but unless she does a giraffe, sea turtle or chocolate cocker spaniel, I'm not biting. Love the goblets, have the chocolate ribbed ones, but am hoping for some teal ones. I still like the blue/yellow wreath, would need two for my front doors. I do like the cupboard and the one that aired last time although I don't need either. I think I'm safe though.

@crazycockermom I'm with you, some pretty things that I don't need. I really like the mosaic Owl. I do like the ceramic hurricanes in the fern green since I have the similar ones from a few years back in ivory. I have two sets of the goblets, in green and amber, and I find them hard to fit in with my decorating, they are just so tall. I think they are pretty though. How do you use yours?

I like the fern green color. Since I'm newish to Valerie, I don't really know what her items were like years past. But these ceramic ones are nice. If you have a place for them, get them!

I have a little wine rack with a glass top that I put my goblets on. It used to be at the end of the kitchen island but after getting the dogs I moved it out of the way into the corner of my dining room. The goblets actually look perfect there, in my opinion. Because they are so tall and substantial it's really the only place I can put them. They wouldn't look right in my family room. Maybe my living room. I wouldn't mind another color to change it up every now and then. When you say green, do you mean the aqua? How do you like the color?

I almost wish there was a smaller version of the goblets. I wouldn't mind putting them on the kitchen ledge next to the "wine diva" sign that my late husband's parents got me. But the ledge is small and the wine goblets are too wide and tall. Oh well.

@crazycockermom My green goblets are more of a spring green, not aqua. I like the color and it's working with the season. I have them on the dresser with a mirrored tray and greens under them. I'd also like a smaller set to use in more places.

@SHOPR Thank you for the kind words. I think we are on the mend. It will just take some time. Hope your Poison Ivy is healing and the itching has stopped.

I saw a few things in Valerie's show that I like, the mosaic Owl, Cat and the indoor-outdoor hurricanes in fern green. She said she was showing the new items but they wouldn't be available to purchase until Thursday so it isn't clear if there will be any surprise items when the show airs. Some people won't be able to watch the night shows if they don't get QVC2. I probably won't purchase anything as I'm trying to downsize so adding more makes little sense.

@lucymo, That's good to hear. :-) I'm on the mend as well.

I think the mosaic animals are such a cute idea and will probably be very popular. I like the idea of mosaic but can usually give it a pass. The substantial indoor/outdoor hurricanes really appeal to me, but I will be able to resist them as well.

Hopefully those who don't get the QVC2 channel will be able to do the live stream from the website, which is what I have to do for all QVC shows now.

Last time Valerie was on, I think (not positive) there was a surprise item in the last show of the day. It was something that was not even on the website earlier in the day, much like One Time Only items were in the past.

Thanks for responding. A spring green? From Valerie? I must've missed those. They sound pretty.

I'm safe ~ there isn't one thing I have to have. That's not to say she won't have a few surprises the day of the show, though. I'm sitting here looking at my Easter display with the set of 2 white sisal bunnies Valerie offered many years ago. So many here have them as well ~ I have seen all the beautiful photos. I sure wish she would start bringing things like that back to us. I'm getting so tired of the glass items ~ there isn't anything wrong with them, I just wish she would start bringing things back similar to what she offered years ago. I'm kind of glad as gardening season is upon us ~ that should make a big enough dent in my pocketbook!

Same here unless there will be more product that she isn't talking about. The only thing that sort of caught my interest was the red white and blue wreath but berry style? Watch she will pair that with the bird lanterns and the sideboard will be transformed lol.

I'm surprised product won't be released until Val's first show actually airs. Maybe a boss got mad or someone was worried there would be sell outs and no shows.

I can't believe that after that she won't be back until CIJ. Wow!

Nice to see some new things.

Those indoor outdoor hurricanes look very similar in color style and pattern to those she had a couple of years ago with the bird on top, so nice companion pieces to those (I don't need them, I don't need them, I don't need them!!).

And I like the mosaic owl a little bit too!

I doubt I'll be buying though!

I like te owl too even though I normally don't care for them too much or have a need to buy this. Its a rather odd group dog, cat, owl?

Lucy, when downsizing you can send a couple dozen deer this way.... LOL. I like the little lamp in amber, but how many of those little lamps can one have? I like the battery operated ones due to where I put them. If they show up as is, I'll have to have a pair. Thanks for the peek.

@crazycockermom I'll do a picture tonight if I get home in time. I've had mine for awhile but not all that long ago. Not the latest pattern on them though. Have a great day.

@SHOPR I'll probably cave and get the ceramic indoor-outdoor hurricanes in fern green. I think I'd get more use of them than anything else I've seen for her show. She may surprise us with something we just have to have. Have a wonderful day.

@GCR18 You know that the Reindeer will be the last to go. But, don't give up, it may happen sooner than you think. lol. I like the lamps too, but will probably get the ceramic indoor-outdoor hurricanes in fern green. I love the ones that I have in ivory with the bird on top of the lid. Hope you have a great day.
