~~~Shells on the Breakfast Bar~~~~

Happy Monday everyone. this will just be a short post because I have actually set another table for this week but realized I never showed you this! So, here are a few pictures of a barscape I set up a few weeks ago and forgot to show you. I will post my new table tomorrow, so please come back:) I got these new shell cereal bowls cause I eat cereal every morning. I love the raised shells design on them.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh16g9uGHby8aedqlq1-qiS4BSammZ_CXlVtApKPWEFNVJAeZI_ylmU2hYYbsavtJ-uufpM8TDNU2wVi6nvbyz1PGqGd-Qd1RBRefgRPdwc94GDp61w0f5OA4IPodm4eqPZ5Z9YCyPrOYHS/s1600/IMG_1292.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
