Favorite combination: Pewter and White

I love to collect pewter accessories. Pewter and white is one of my favorite combinations. When I saw jasmine vine blooming in my garden, my first choice of vase to arrange them in was pewter without much thought. To see my post on white and pewter combination, click here. I used a pewter tray as a base for the arrangement to make a statement.





Come close and smell the jasmine. Don't you love it? For me, the smell of jasmine is intoxicating. 

 




One of my favorite trays from my collection.

  6. Komali, pewter and jasmine are such a fabulous combination. But jasmine alone is one of my favorites. The night-blooming variety is just heaven. Thanks for reminding me of that wonderful aroma and Miami. Great to see you on my blog - thanks so much. Jane
