The Usual Suspects



Putting together a production comprised of your collections is a lot like a Shakespeare company producing a play. It's going to consist of the same players, only starring in different roles.



When people say to you "this looks like you"--that's what they mean.



For me, it's white, linens, ironstone, creamware, pitchers, and shells, among a few other things.



So when I'm gathering things up, I'm a bit like Mr. Blaine and Captain Renault in CASABLANCA. "Round up the usual suspects!"





































Thanks for stopping by for a visit!
I hope you get to do something you love today!
Ciao! for now!

Jacqueline
