Special October Sale and New Items!

I wanted to let you all know that I'm having my annual October sale .  Everything is 15% off sitewide. Use code October2015 at checkout.  Sale ends 10/16 Some of my favorites are this set of 12 historical plates which are perfect for Thanksgiving! I used them in this tablescape a few years back.

These scarves are on back order as the first batch sold out quickly and will arrive early in November.  They are so wonderful not only to wear, but I like to use them as table runners! Hope to see you around my shop!
