I think a champagne bucket is just about one of the most versatile pieces there is. You can fill it with a beautiful bottle of champagne or wine, maybe a fabulous bouquet of flowers, a heaping mound of fruit with grapes hanging over the edge and any number of other things you can dream up.
Since I am on a feather kick, I thought I would make an arrangement in mine for the coffee table.
A few pods and pearls too, I just love the combination.
The white oystrich feathers are so pretty mixed in with the pheasant feathers.
A few silver candlesticks and coasters finish things off.
(Yes, that’s still a few gifts that you see in the background that havn’t been delivered yet. We are getting together next week.)
So how about you, are you mixing metals and using all that silver?
