I know we have a few plant rental places around the KC area, but I've never taken advantage of that opportunity. Hmmmmm....I think you're onto something!<br /><br />You got an absolutely GREAT deal on those beautiful dishes!!! I never heard of a bid box. I will have to look for one in the future when I go to estate sales. I never knew they existed, but if I could get something with a simple bid I'm all for it!!! It's so wonderful when you are finally able to figure out what to do with a purchase. At the time you buy it you KNOW there's something great in its future, but you may not have it totally figured out just yet. I do that a LOT!!! It was totally worth the wait because this is a MAGNIFICENT table!!! You really captured the Asian influence of the dishes without going overboard. The illusion is so wonderful that for a fleeting moment I actually thought the dining chairs were those bamboo chiavaris!!! You NAILED it, sweetheart!!!<br /><br />Alycia Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14690591304562176674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7592231447818522695.post-58930422668308392112014-01-21T16:14:37.151-06:002014-01-21T16:14:37.151-06:00This table is a work of art.

I know what you mean about the bonsai, I took a class about forty years ago and I never managed to keep anything alive for more than a year. Good thinking to rent a beautiful specimen plant. I resorted to using an artificial bonsai plant for my bedroom dresser. I just rinse it off every two or three months and it still looks great after several years.Candy Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06469612721498821255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7592231447818522695.post-23326959715212067472014-01-16T16:48:26.255-06:002014-01-16T16:48:26.255-06:00Great use of bonsai/dishes - and the moss was perf...Great use of bonsai/dishes - and the moss was perfect!
