If life gives you lemons......

What do you do???? Stuff them in a lovely vase with some flowers and set a pretty table to match.

I set the table with my vintage dinner set (our wedding china from 34 years ago!) and used some gorgeous brown spotted teatowels I had bought and cut up to make napkins. This was looking ok but this is where I started to wander - hence the next photo of the lovely winter-blue sky!!

Suddenly I had the solution - I had bought 7 napkins from the thrift store for $2.50 a few days ago and had soaked them then washed them and they were sitting in my ironing basket. They were just what I needed so out with the iron and suddenly the table had the bit of zing it needed.

PS. I have been MIA a bit lately - my girlfriend sadly lost her mum last week and also Mr FH and I hosted our family Xmas in July (yes, I know it's August!) at the beachhouse so life has been a bit hectic. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up soon.
