Teacups, roses and cleaning

This first Saturday in March is a good time to begin some light, pre-Spring cleaning. Cleaning, dusting and freshening up the china cabinet and making sure that the tea service and all of those pretty little teacups have a sparkling display.

A quick trip to the market for some roses gives a chance to enjoy some scenery and these slightly milder temperatures. We like to arrange roses in floral patterned pitchers or vases. This adds such prettiness to the china cabinet and pantry. 

When do you begin Spring cleaning in your home? Do you like to decorate with fresh roses?
