I have seen this pretty dish pattern before...I love it! It really does have some awesome Victorian scenes on it! I couldn't help but notice the one little bowl...with the Sherlock Holmes character on it...it mirrors your miniature Toby Sherlock Holmes mug sooo perfectly! Love that! Well my dear, taking a meal in the library sounds so delightful and you have set the perfect table! Thank you so much for sharing it with us for the Sunday Favorites repost party this week...this was such a treat! Hmmm...wished that I had a library...I would love to host a dinner in such a room!<br /><br />Have a wonderful week, my friend!<br />Chari @Happy To DesignChari at Happy To Designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05475994012652473793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4149560156205207645.post-54415550194619734762011-03-06T11:31:13.849-06:002011-03-06T11:31:13.849-06:00What a wonderful idea for a tablesetting in the li...What a wonderful idea for a tablesetting in the library.

I am making a note in my "bloggers' requests" file so that if I ever run across some I can alert you. Your table looks so cool, and I LOVE the dishes. I can remember a time when I could not appreciate the beauty of those dishes. My grandmother had a set, and I could never understand why she cherished them so much. Now I do, and I wish I would have taken them when offered. (Heck...I was like 18 or 19 and had NO clue!!!) The double decker runner is a great touch, and Mr. Holmes looks right at home! Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier, and I'll keep an eye open for the gas lamps! Have a great weekend!Alycia Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14690591304562176674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4149560156205207645.post-91174794382027094412011-02-03T13:50:07.374-06:002011-02-03T13:50:07.374-06:00Oh, what delightful dishes!
