Dear Diva Readers,
top: 5px; float: left; color: white; background: #781300; border: 1px solid darkkhaki; font-size: 100px; line-height: 90px; padding-top: 1px; padding-right: 5px; font-family: times;”>I’ve been a long-time fan of toriamag.com/” target=”_blank”>Victoria magazine and was absolutely honored when my own company appeared in their tours/in-the-press-victoria-crave-amsterdam-the-examiner/” target=”_blank”>magazine this past July/August 2010. I love flipping through the pages of their publication, taking in gorgeous scenery, reading great travel articles, collecting recipes, but most of all I am inspired by their home décor and photos illustrating the art of graceful living. In the current issue – March/April 2011 – I was smitten with a unique idea I found!
The stylists at Victoria magazine filled antique apothecary jars with spring tulips for fresh take on spring table décor. I’m always a fan of using unique pieces as vases and this idea is right up my alley!
And while it does add an eclectic touch to the table, the overall look they created is still decisively traditional and elegant.
I tried the look at home, moving it from the dining table to my coffee table to give my living room a fresh look in hopes of spring and I was delighted with the results.
Apparently I wasn’t the only one who was enamored by this look… my cat, Catpuccino, spent the afternoon gazing at the artful arrangement. Was it the apothecary jars that caught his eye? The tulips? The antique crystal bowl filled with hand-painted Czech eggs or perhaps the Biedermeier wooden tray which collected the lot? In my online store at The Antiques Diva & Co, we’re offering a great selection of small and large apothecary jars as well as a varied assortment of antiques, vintage pieces and objects of curiosity.
Happy Spring,
The Antiques Diva

It is actually a nice and useful piece of info. I am satisfied that you just shared this useful info with us.
Please keep us informed like this. Thanks for sharing.
I’m really enjoying the theme/design of your website.
Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility issues?
A few of my blog visitors have complained about my website not working correctly in Explorer but
looks great in Firefox. Do you have any suggestions
to help fix this problem?
Per i anno, Ray Ban disegni sono venuti a arrivare a essere sinonimo di grande buono
meravigliose incredibili specie. Molto modo che sono il favorito occhiali
da sole di celebrità tutto nel mondo. è sufficiente non può farti un extra styling paio

I’m impressed, I have to admit. Rarely do I encounter a blog
that’s both educative and entertaining, and let me
tell you, you have hit the nail on the head. The problem is something which too few folks are speaking intelligently about.
I am very happy that I found this in my hunt for something relating
to this.
I’ve been browsing online more than three hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like
yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. In my view,
if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be much more useful than ever before.
Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to
my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back!
LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
Excellent article. Keep posting such kind of info on your blog.
Im really impressed by your blog.
Hello there, You have done a great job. I’ll certainly digg it
and individually suggest to my friends. I am confident they’ll be
benefited from this site.
I am now not certain where you are getting your information, but good
topic. I must spend a while finding out much more or working out
more. Thanks for magnificent info I was searching for
this information for my mission.
Are you testing some Yard Aquaponics and need to see if it is right for you?
Thanks for the marvelous posting! I certainly enjoyed reading it, you can be a great author.I will be sure to
bookmark your blog and will often come back sometime soon. I want to encourage you to continue your great
writing, have a nice afternoon!
For newest information you have to go to see web and on the web I found this
web site as a finest web page for most recent updates.
On lack of in the restaurant is bookstore, where students
become more willing to work from home line to purchase cramming books on chemistry, civil service, and English literature alongside parents willing to be out inside the rain while they buy the latest
fashion in notebooks and colored pens due to their primary school children. It
is just not designed for secure or large-scale application. Due on the extreme speeds with the network, the server accomplishes the 1:
1 ratio in the relatively short time.
Hi there, I want to subscribe for this blog to obtain most
recent updates, thus where can i do it please help.
Nice post. I learn something totally new and challenging on blogs I stumbleupon every day.
It will always be helpful to read through content
from other authors and practice a little something from other web sites.
Once you’ve loosened the digitizer we should be able to lift it away from
the iPad.
Excellent article. I’m experiencing a few of these issues as well..

I’ve seen people use old fruit canning jars as flower vases, but using apothecary jars is new! They’re usually kept on display! Kudos to the decorator!
