Glamorous New Year's Eve Table Setting: Welcome to the 125th Tablescape Thursday!

Hi Everyone! This evening I'm excited to share a tablescape from my friend, Bonnie. Bonnie created a wonderful table setting for New Year's Eve recently. It's sparkly and festive and perfect for celebrating the start of a new year. As you can see, Bonnie had a little 4 footed help with preparing the table. I always love seeing what Bonnie's done with her hutch for the season...it looks amazing!




Bonnie put this table setting together in her dining room. We get the added treat of seeing her home all decorated for Christmas. I love the Santa painting on the wall. Notice the backs of the chairs are decorated, too. :)




Even the chandelier was decorated for this special celebration...




This makes me feel like I'm dining in New York City for New Year's! :)




Sparkly and glamorous!







Come a bit closer...your place is right here...




Bonnie always has the most amazing chargers...I'm totally loving these!







Have you ever seen salad plates like these?!




Gorgeous napkin rings...




Bonnie, thanks so much for inviting us into your home for this New Year's celebration!

What a great New Year's Eve table she had. I love what she did with the chandelier, and the skyline was a perfect centerpiece. I always think of NYC on New Year's Eve too.

My favorite part of all, though, was the place setting with that fabulous charger.

Bonnie is so gifted. LOVED it.

And thanks as always for not only sharing a wonderful table with us but hosting this party so others can share too.

Its always a treat to see one of Bonnie's tables and this one is no exception! I like how she uses a non-traditional type centerpiece such as a "New York" city skyline. The sparkle and glam of the dishes and accessories adds to the festive feel. The "fanciness" hanging from the chandelier is the icing on the cake! Love to see how others decorate for Christmas too - LOVE that large Santa pic!
Thanks for sharing this with us Susan. Hope you are feeling better!

I always love to see what Bonnie is doing, and I hope you will thank her for us, Susan! This is just lovely, and it truly is decandent... which makes it so much better. Like chocolate and good champagne! Sparkle is the word that comes to mind when I see this table, and it is the perfect New Year's treat!

Happy Tablescape Thursday. I went ahead and shared a fall 'scape that I wasn't able to do due to the insanity the fall was for me. Hope that's okay. It's called, "Treat Yourself," which is just what I did tonight!

XO,

Sheila :-)

Beautiful New Years tablescape. I love how sparkly it is. I do love the beautiful dinner plates but the salad plates are awesome! I've never seen anything like those! I love it! Beautiful home!

Please, please be sure to tell Bonnie we said "thank you" for sharing her AWESOME tablescape...and her GORGEOUS home!! I enlarged every single picture & sat here with my nose pressed up against the monitor to take in all the delicious details. I even took notes!

Would have loved to see that hutch close-up...and learn about that dripping snow/icicles from the edge of the shelf. I would have also loved to see just what all she had on the shelf above her entryway door. I have a very similar window & shelf & never even thought to decorate that area!! Duh??

Thanks again for allowing Bonnie to guest appear on BNOTP. She needs her own blog!!
I hope you are feeling better by now, too. Get some REST!!!!

It looks great!
I should take the leaves out of the dining table and set it for 4 like B did. I always think it looks strange when I do it, but it looks good here.
Hope you are surviving your blizzard. We lost our power and it got very frosty IN the house!
