Last time I posted a vignette in tribute of my Germanic roots.... today, since it is March and coming up on St. Paddy's Day I am thinking of the Emerald Isle and glorying in my O'Higins ancestry... besides is it so fun to pull these items together because it is a prelude to spring......
So this week I am sharing our hutch.....
I little bit old fashioned, the O'Higins in me is inclined to be a bit fanciful and I guess you could say cluttered.... My O'Higins grandparents were known as over the top story tellers and very fun-loving folks who took things to the extreme in many ways..... thus sometimes my decorative editing may be lacking... but as long as I like it... that is truly all that matters....
Because church is such an integral part of our lives. and of course since it hosts its lovely green roof, it found high positioning.... right beside the Irish Beleek cream and sugar Lynn and I received as wedding presents in 1972....
On the other end of the top shelf I placed my Beleek pitcher I received from my dear older cousin, Bonny Lyn, before she passed....
The Celtic cross was a souvenir from the Scotland Shop in Williamsburg, Virginia.. from last summer..
(It is definitely time to go back there, surely)
No Irish vignette in our house would be without Irish tea... and my Shamrock China from Ireland was a gift to me from my Great Aunt Josephine who had purchased it years ago on her travels.
So there you have my Irish tribute and prelude to spring vignette!
Erin go Bragh!

Love your hutch and your new vignette is just gorgeous. The celtic cross is lovely and I really like the little church and the floral arrangement. Thanks so much for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
