registries

we have 2 actual (Bed Bath & Beyond and Crate & Barrel, we're into the ampersands) and one fantasy registry (Williams-Sonoma). I've been looking for nice stuff to register for, like vases and serving platters, but most of the things that appeal to Ben and I are more basic (and affordable) and don't fall into the cut leaded crystal category. Cut crystal can be beautiful, but there isn't any I like at any of the places we registered at. So, if you've found something outside of our registries that you think would fit our aesthetic, go for it. 'Cause I'm not hunting Fortunof's website to find the "perfect" accents to the curio chest we don't have. That's it, just buy us furniture! We can just admire all the pretty things that we already have. Think of how good my ducks will look in a nice china hutch!
