But I cannot blame you for falling head over heels with wicker. They are gorgeous and ideal for any space. And the best part is, you can adorn it with other elements and details to make it more gorgeous.

Our little town will be featured in a Georgia Trust Ramble on the 14th. They will lunch at his house - they have gone to great lengths to preserve the heritage of the home - they've built a dove coat, a well and other outer buildings to reflect what was once there. They even erected a fence along their property that was quite popular in this town. It is quite extraordinary. I hope you're not affected too badly by the floods - this seems to be a season of extreme weather,<br />God Bless,<br />KathyKathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00310044533488593888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19406729577655707.post-4289293745512376362011-05-03T13:24:01.610-07:002011-05-03T13:24:01.610-07:00Love your wicker Richard, but I must say, I was TO...Love your wicker Richard, but I must say, I was TOTALLY distracted by that fabulous tassled needlepoint pillow and yet another Persian Rug in your Bedroom!!! *swoon*<br /><br />Your wicker graveyard just shows how passionate you are about these pieces, I hope one day you find a Master Restorer of wicker who can bring those magnificent flood damaged pieces back to life.<br /><br />Dawn...

How wonderful...your pieces are all treasures. I have white wicker on my back porch. If it EVER warms up I will get my porch put together...last summer I bought an antique sofa from Craigslist.
