The other day, I was looking for a particular item…
Could not find it…
Then I thought to look in the drawer that is underneath the oven.
It wasn’t there either…however…I found something that I forgot I had.
A platter that my mom gave me years and years ago…
To place the turkey on .. for my very first Thanksgiving that I hosted.
Thanksgiving dinner was always at my mom’s house….then eventually hosted at my sister’s home.
But on that particular year….many years ago…I hosted it for my family.
I told my mom that I did not have a platter large enough…she said she had the perfect platter…
…..for the very first turkey that I was to make.
I placed the platter on the stove hood….but it looked too plain
I looked in my stash of faux greenery…I had the perfect stem of greenery.
I cut each branch off from the main stem and formed it into a circle using floral wire.
I prefer using faux florals and greenery by Raz or Regency…for the quality.
I was fortunate to get this stem for 75% off … cost of stem originally $7.00 … final cost, $1.75 🙂
The wreath was just the thing to enhance my “platter of memories”
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend…I will be spending time enjoying the view…
Tweaking things here and there…
Looking for more fabrics…
Creating new vignettes….
And spending time with this “cutie”…
Have a wonderful, wonderful weekend making beautiful memories!!
