    My Holiday Dining Room

    ByMary Crozier December 10, 2019December 10, 2019

    I am so excited to share the holiday changes to our dining room this year. Every year, literally, every year, I have done the same thing when it comes to holiday decorating.

    ByMary Crozier November 20, 2017November 8, 2023

    Food seems to taste much better when served in a beautiful setting.  Even though I didn’t have an extravagant childhood, my mother always set a lovely table for the holidays, using her Franciscan Ware apple pattern.
