Beautiful! I have found wonderful, realistic florals at Prestige Florals

Aster's Place on youtube is wonderful! She is a terrific florist with faux and real flowers.

I have ordered some and am well pleased. They send out a lot of coupons.

When you lose some one you L~O~V~E, that Memory of them, becomes a TREASURE.

I actually prefer the more rustic look, the more the better, even in slick, sophisticated settings. They are an interesting counterpoint to the contemporary.

@Kachina624 Yes...I am finding this to be true! I have added a mix of vintage to my tradtional and rustic. While I like the mix, I find that I miss the warmth of the more rustic and casual. I decided to add more "rustic" back and I am even more pleased with the warmth and character it brings to my room.

My son made me a very long one for my Dining Table about 2 years ago.

I It is long and narrow..I change the decor in it about 3 times a year for Holidays/Seasons. I love it.

I put a lot of greenery, flameless candles, Holiday decor etc.

I don't have a dough bowl. Should I?

Perfect timing seeing this thread today.

I have a small oblong dough bowl on the back of my stove, and another just a bit larger stored in the basement.

I love how these bowls were shown, but they are all large and oblong and my dining room table is a medium size round- seats 5 without the leaf. This afternoon I came across a large, heart-shaped wooden dough bowl. Beautiful, unique, a great price and one of only two in the store. Could not leave it there as I knew it would not be there long. Picked it up to maybe give as a gift, but it looks great on my table! Tomorrow I will pick up some foil wrapped chocolate hearts as well as those conversation candy hearts to fill the bowl,. After that I will put some small potted plants in it and refer to this thread for inspiration.

I would put in a little piece of aluminum foil with the sides up to keep plant water off of the wood. You don't want to damage the wood.
