My sister has a beautiful new dining room set.

It is a formal dining room…with gorgeous detailed chairs…and upholstered seats.

The dining room table has a beautiful “real” inlaid pattern…awesome…

…..made by one of the few “hand made” furniture manufacturers left in the U.S.

So, it is only befitting that she have a beautiful centerpiece…

I had a hard time finding the perfect planter…but I found this decorative covered container…
She can use it in it’s original state when she tires of the arrangement.

She sent me a piece of fabric from which to draw inspiration.

I think it is a great match.

I gathered beautiful quality silks…

Time to put it all together…

She loves feathers…so in they went….

More peeks of the arrangement….

So here we go..the big reveal…..are you ready Betty?..Hope you like it!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BETTY ANN!!!
