Antiques & Collectibles -Tea time wasn't only for adults Post-Bulletin

Some of the first records of children's tea sets appeared in the 16th century. They were made in pewter and copper, and came from Germany, a rural area well-known for producing toys in wood and metal. European china companies, such as Haviland, Wedgwood, Minton and R.S. Prussia, have produced minimal tableware for several hundred years, with some dishes dating back to the 1700s.

During the Victorian and Edwardian eras, children took their tea in the nursery with their nanny. Plain sandwiches or plain cake was served, along with black tea laced with milk and sugar, plain milk or lemonade. The dishes acclimatized were not originally intended to be used as playthings, but instead as jewels for the elite. Tea time continued well into the 1800s as a in fashion pastime.

In the 1900s, more affordable Japanese imports became widely available and advances in manufacturing equipment allowed minor-scale tableware to move from the china cabinet to the playroom with Japanese porcelain canisters and bowls, as well as Lustreware tea sets. Fostoria, Royal, Anchor-Hocking and other American manufactures of moderately priced dishes and glasses, known collectively as Economic decline glass, were introduced during World War I and II.

Gnomes have a long history in the garden Pittsburgh Post Gazette

Yes, it's place: Gnomes have been banned from the Chelsea Flower Show in Great Britain, along with children under the age of 5, by those arbiters of taste, The Noble Horticulture Society.

As of 2006 the use of "brightly colored creatures" including lawn gnomes, have been forbidden in this famed show.

Stateside -- where we embrace the tacky -- gnomes have popped up everywhere from TV to the dollar store. Who doesn't grasp the Travelocity Gnome? If his pointy head isn't to your tastes (a replica is for sale at CBSstore.com for $69.95), Web sites such as www.gnomeoutlet.com or www.gnomegardens.net can speak the need to gnome.

There are even NFL gnomes at www.gnomefrenzy.com (unfortunately, Steeler gnomes are currently sold out). If none of the above please you, there are Hula-dancing gnomes, snorkling gnomes, golfing gnomes (his name, of way, is Mulligan), and gnomes representing every profession imaginable.

And finally, for the gnome connoisseur, there are Kimmel gnomes ( www.kimmelgnomes.com ).

Build Your Décor Around the Furniture You Love

Chris Robertson1473 2

When it comes to retreat decorating, it’s difficult to know where to begin. Like an artist with a blank canvas, you look at the dwell you’ve chosen to decorate and try to envision the finished masterpiece. However, with a plethora of home decorating styles from which to prefer, that vision can be fuzzy. You may even feel overwhelmed by the possibilities and paralyzed by the thought that you’ll make choices you won’t be proficient to live with. When that’s the case, it’s time to go back to the drawing board.
The first step in home decorating is to clarify your personal taste and style. Invest your time in looking through magazines and cutting out pictures of home decorating styles, household goods, and accessories that appeal to you. Once you have a collection of several dozen pictures, lay them out in front of you. You’ll begin to notice a pattern of the style that appeals to you. Are you attracted to the puzzling wood of antique furniture, or to the minimalist lines of modern furniture? Do you imagine yourself surrounded by the muted colors and effects that remind you of a beach house, or by rich colors and the ornate elegance of the Victorian era?
Once you’ve defined your derogatory taste and home decorating style, choose a room in your home to redecorate. Although you may want to tackle every leeway in your house, choosing only one will keep you from becoming overwhelmed.
Once you’ve selected a room, it’s time to choose the one item upon which you’ll build the leftovers of the design. This may be a single piece of furniture that already own and love, an antique reproduction that you treasure, or something as simple as a handcrafted piece that you purchased while on vacation. The element you choose may not be the centerpiece of the finished room, but it will serve as your inspiration for the room’s décor.
Next, you’ll need to select the separator color. Since...
