Snow Crystals ~ Pink Transferware Christmas Tablescape

Throughout the afternoon I watched them there,  Snow-fairies falling, falling from the sky,  Whirling fantastic in the misty air,  Contending fierce for space supremacy.  And they flew down a mightier force at night,  As though in heaven there was revolt and riot,  And they, frail things had taken panic flight  Down to the calm earth seeking peace and quiet.  I went to bed and rose at early dawn  To see them huddled together in a heap,  Each merged into the other upon the lawn,  Worn out by the sharp struggle, fast asleep.  The sun shone brightly on them half the day,  By night they stealthily had stol'n away .  ~by Claude McKay~ Merry Christmas Sources: Transferware - my shop, English Transferware  - Johnson Brothers Snow Crystals Flatware- Oneida Winter Frost Snowflake Tea Towels/ used in lieu of Napkins - Big Lots Snowflake Tumblers- Federal Glass, circa 1950-60 Teacups are sitting on
