Happy New Year Peter! (Champagne since 1980...wow)
ReplyDeleteVery festive display....Happy New year!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! 1980 Champagne? hmmm, I have some that is 5 years old I am wondering about. Love the arrangement.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't champagne get better with age? Everything should I think. Best wishes for a happy and healthy new year, Peter!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like quite a party. The berries are very pretty and I'm sure Dawn smells wonderful.
ReplyDeleteOh I love the bubbly baubly contents of this - and the string of beads links everything together in both style and colour. Thanks for sharing these pretties, Peter
ReplyDeleteThe beads match the berries really well. We have some pretty old champagne, but not quite that old. That's older than my son. I guess you guys aren't drinkers either.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful display, Peter. Champagne isn't much good beyond 3-4 years, but it makes a nice prop for New Year's arrangements! ;)
ReplyDeleteYour berries and flowers work so well with your decorations! Did you taste the champagne? I hope you will have a wonderful year ahead!
ReplyDeleteWishing you all the best in this New Year.
ReplyDeleteWhen we got married friends gave us a set of champagne glasses and a bottle of bubbly and a note that said to drink it when things are going badly or you're feeling down. Don't waste it on a day that is already good, they said. Clearly you only have good days if you have a lovely bottle dying of old age!
