    Your new tulips look so pretty with the silver. I noticed alot of people are bringing fresh flowers indoor this time of year. I think we all need the "lift" that it brings us since it's so brown looking outside. I can't wait for the green color to come back.

    I love your silver, and I love it tarnished, too. I think it helps bring out the details that maybe the glare of polished silver washes out.... And tulips, too, hurry spring!

    Yes, I have not been able to add new blogs in about two weeks now. Your tulips are gorgeous in the silver pot. I love tulips too, I just wish they lasted longer.

    Thanks for the visit and such kind comments. You asked what I use to clean my glass. I use the stuff you put in your car to wash your windshields off. It has a ton of stuff to cut all kinds of film and it works super on glass and mirrors inside the house. Hugs, marty

    I love tulips, they are so fresh and pretty. Also love tarnished silver. I bought another vintage trophy the other day - very tarnished - husband thinks I'm mad! Lovely arrangement. x Sharon
