This 7 piece Dinner set "Orchard Hill " pattern is absolutely gorgeous! This beautiful pattern has colorful flowers (green and Pink) with gold trim and rich in detail. This is what they call an elegant Easter!
However you "dress" your table make it yours! Add some beautiful linens in a Spring fabric and add some white or pink milk glass filled with chocolate eggs.
Did you know the history of Easter Eggs? Easter Eggs predate the Christian holiday of Easter. When Christians first celebrated Easter, the exchange of eggs in the springtime was already a centuries-old custom. Eggs have long been a symbol of rebirth in most cultures, and they were often wrapped in gold leaf, or colored brightly by boiling them with the leaves or petals of colorful flowers.

The saying "Beware of the Ides of March" comes from Shakespeare's telling of Caesar's death!
Today, the Ides of March has a better tone to it, and for good reason. Quite a few historical weather events around the globe have occurred on or near March 15th, including tropical cyclones and winter storms.
March arrives as a hungry spring bear, but then Like magic, there it is…the first whisper of spring. Everyone gets out and sweeps the last of winter off their walks and we all roll up our sleeves and begin cleaning up after old man winter.
But March for us at Distinctive Vintage means new products coming your way! Starting with Daylight Savings time on March 10th,St. Patrick's Day March 17th, Spring begins on March 19th at 11:06 p.m. and this year Easter is early!
It is the first mild day of March. Each minute sweeter than before…there is a blessing in the air.
~William Wadsworth Longfellow.

A great way to celebrate for St. Patrick's Day is setting a nice table, even if your just having friends they will welcome the "wearing of the green". I was hosting and Bella was the hit of the night...she came with family and what better way to celebrate!
These were last year's pictures. I did Cupcakes and of course the traditional Corned Beef and Cabbage. What a great meal!!!
Simple touches to your table mean everything! Have fun

Here in my small part of the world Venice, Florida during the winter months, it usually is a bit chilly but the sun still shines to make the day a little wormer. This year not so much! It's been rainy and dreary! Doesn't make you want to do much of anything...so indoor projects that have been put off are in full swing! Also I've been adding a few new Vintage Items that I purchased on Auctions and of course cooking, cooking and more cooking!
So browse around the shop and see what you can find to life your spirits!!!! March is coming soon and we have the "Vintage Green" to help you celebrate!
