I finally finished repairing this dining room set that I bought second hand. I sanded, restained, repaired a broken chair and made new seat cushions. It is from a kit from the early 80s. It is just the right style for the early american look I am going for.
I just repainted the candlesticks in the back. They were bright gold.
I need to make a new floor cloth because I ruined the original one I made.
Beauty of whatever kind, in its supreme development, invariably excites the sensitive soul to tears.

Encased in some of Mother natures features, lies this old house. It's neighbours being tree lined valleys, woods, waterfalls and streams, a real getaway indeed.

Unseasonably warm evening for mid-September, so some people still dining outside restaurants while they can (most prefer this to being indoors, even with social distancing etc). Quick, rough handheld shot on walk home from late work shift tonight.
Last summer we visited the royal palace in Madrid. On of the highlights of that visit was this beautiful decorated dining-room. Since you weren't allowed to get actually inside the room, none of the many visitors were in the shot.
Enjoy!

The Zedel Brasserie is a beautifully decorated restaurant just behind Piccadilly Circus. We successfully negotiated the menu that was in French only with the help of Linda who speaks the language and then we enjoyed a very fine meal. The waiting staff were numerous and attentive although the young lady looking after us, and who took this photo of us, did struggle a little as at times we were addressed as madam and at other times as sir. To be honest I did not detect any malice I just think we were probably the first tgirls she had looked after and she was getting a little muddled.
We moved the dining table next to the window. And new Be Yourself print finally on the wall! blogged here
The dining room at the Georgian House Museum,Bristol.
The house was built in 1790 for John Pinney,a plantation owner and sugar merchant.
I love Japanese food, especially vegetable tempura, Korokke (Japanese potato croquettes) and Agedashi Tofu. Not only is Japanese food delicious, it is also presented beautifully. What better way to eat such delicate and delicious food than with a pair of elegant chopsticks?
These antique Japanese chopsticks are made of Cloisonné. They are set against a background of a traditional depiction of the ocean printed and gilt on fine paper.
This year the FFF+ Group have decided to have a weekly challenge called “Snap Happy”. A different theme chosen by a member of the group each week, and the image is to be posted on the Monday of the week.
This week the theme, “pair” was chosen by Beverley, BlueberryAsh.
I thought this pair of elegant antique chopsticks was a suitable choice.
Cloisonné is an ancient technique for decorating metalwork objects. In recent centuries, vitreous enamel has been used, and inlays of cut gemstones, glass and other materials were also used during older periods. The resulting objects can also be called cloisonné. The decoration is formed by first adding compartments (cloisons in French) to the metal object by soldering or affixing silver or gold wires or thin strips placed on their edges. These remain visible in the finished piece, separating the different compartments of the enamel or inlays, which are often of several colours. Cloisonné enamel objects are worked on with enamel powder made into a paste, which then needs to be fired in a kiln.
The Japanese produced large quantities from the mid Nineteenth Century, of very high technical quality cloisonné. In Japan cloisonné enamels are known as shippō-yaki (七宝焼). Early centres of cloisonné were Nagoya during the Owari Domain. Companies of renown were the Ando Cloisonné Company. Later centres of renown were Edo and Kyoto. In Kyoto Namikawa became one of the leading companies of Japanese cloisonné.
