Hello dear readers!
Did you hear the news? The Cashiers Showhouse opened this past weekend AND it features a sitting room designed by yours truly!
I had an absolute ball there this weekend sharing stories, signing copies of The Collected Tabletop and talking design.
During my book signing at Francie Hargrove’s I took the opportunity to do a bit of browsing and found the most precious little flower container. Francie mentioned it was one of the most popular items in the store and I am taking this opportunity to make it one of my picks or as I call them “Kathryn’s Classics,” meaning fabulous, useful pieces that will never go out of style!
I love this particular piece because it is a great size for a breakfast table or counter. It is easy to arrange in and doesn’t take many flowers.
But, I digress! You simply must come visit the Cashiers Showhouse to see all of the marvelous rooms yourself. I hope to share more images with you soon. For now, you can find all the showhouse info here.

And, of course, you can pick up your own “Kathryn’s Classics” vase while you’re browsing around town!
Hope to see you there!

I want to purchase the multiple vase piece you have showcased. How am I able to purchase this item? Actually I would be interested in purchasing more then one. I look forward to hearing from you as I envision utilizing this in one of my fall tablescapes. Can you recommend a shop that offers personalized gift baskets and will deliver? I need one created and delivered to someone very dear to me who lives in Candler, NC. Again I look forward to hearing from you. Kaye Oliver
Kaye,
It was such a pleasure to lunch with you at Chestnut Cottage when you were in NC! Glad you like this addition to Kathryn’s Classics! I would recommend that you call Francie Hargrove in Cashiers, NC where I was doing my book signing and spotted this delightful vase. Francie told me they were one of her best sellers and I am sure that she keeps a good inventory of them. I feel sure that she would be happy to ship them to you. The number at her retail shop is 828-743-9700.
