Which Came First?

Wednesday, January 4th, 2012

It goes without saying that with teenage boys in the house, we’re a family of “gamers” – and not just the electronic kind!  Winter weekends mean evenings by the fire playing board games (you name it, we play it!) and one of our favorites is Which Came First?  So in honor of this game and the winter weekends ahead, we’ve come up with a new series…  Which came first?

The vessel…

Porcelain Fruit Bowl

or Vuitton?

Louis Vuitton - Spring 2012

Louis Vuitton - Spring 2012

The prints…

The Hubbard Collection

or the plates?

Lulu DK Petals

The tray…

Folk Stripe

or the toy?

Spiral Art

Do you want to play along with us?  If so, please email us at info@DianeJamesHome.com your “Which Came First?” duos and we’ll include them (with credits, of course!) in future posts.
