A post for my mom

Mom,
To show you that I did not spend my Christmas money on groceries or the like, here are some pictures of my dining room with the two latest home purchases complimentary of you and Dad. After searching all the local craft, home and even some high end furniture stores I found the fake tree at Michael's Craft Store. I even got to use a 40% off coupon that was in last Sunday's paper. It has a beautiful painted terra cotta pot with moss over the top. Compared to the flimsy wicker baskets that I was finding, this was a steal. I also purchased the frame. It is hung on the small wall to the left of the table when looking at the window. The colors match the room perfectly. Until I can get the beautiful buffet and mirror like you have, I think it's a great start. I'll just have to keep looking at the Pottery Barn catalogs and dreaming.
Hugs and kisses,
Shelley
