Nature's Beauty



Oh the beauty of the Butterfly.... We snapped this photo when we were in Victoria, B.C. Canada at the Butterfly Gardens last year.  Such a delicate gorgeous creature... it was magical walking in the Garden with all of the species of Butterflies. 
I have a special place in my heart for these creators. One day while I was gardening I was thinking of my Father who had passed away when I was only 20 years old and all of a sudden out of no where there was more than ten Monarch Butterflies flying above my head. I put out my arm and two of these beauties landed on my arm and stayed with me for the longest time. 
With tears streams down my face I stood in amazement and thought of my Father and felt he was with me at that very moment.   
Very time I see a Butterfly I remember my Father and know he is always with me...  






Blessing to all of you...

For the Birds..


As I started setting the table for lunch today I realized I had a Bird theme evolving and thought I would share it with all of you... Thanks you for stopping in..



These paper Bird napkins were a gift from a Dear friend and I almost hate to use them as I love them so much!



I used various Silver Plated pieces (after I sorted through the tarnished pieces.. lol)



The bone handled fork & spoon where pasted down in my Sweeties Family and I wish I new more about them. The design in the bowl of the spoon is beautiful but I could not get a clear photo to show you.  















The plates did not look as pretty after the feast of cabbage rolls was done.












What is a nice lunch without a pretty goblet...  



I hope you enjoyed your visit today! Have a great weekend filled with Love.. Laughter and the sound of birds singing their sweet songs of Spring!


Hugs,
Wanda
