Hi Happy Labor Day it is steamy and cloudy in New Jersey today.
I saw this plaque in at a sale and I had to purchase it for over my dining room doorway. I added my own touch by dry brushing antique silver paint over the relief. It has that old world charm and feel to the piece. I love the touch of elegance it brings to the dining room.
