Winter Thaw!

Still have snow, still have cold temperatures, so I am staying with my warm-up theme! I try to alternate between my kitchen and my dining room, but I knew my kitchen would continue to be the best backdrop for this dinner tablescape (it became a dinner tablescape when it kept getting later and later before I could get it put together!)


I hope you enjoy!






These colorful plates were the inspiration for this tablescape!



I've had this silk plant for years. I love the little feet
on the container. I tucked in a few berries to brighten
 it up, and some sparkly picks to repeat the sparkle in
the napkins, placemats, and fruit.






The glasses, napkins, sparkly fruit, and
both plates are from Goodwill!


















The bowls, placemats, and flatware are from Ross! I consider Ross my home away from home. If you call me, there is a 50% chance I will be in a Ross store!





















I received some very beautiful roses
from Mr. Wonderful this week!
















Thanks for letting me share with you!

Winter Warm Up!

Last week I created an icy tablescape, completely void of color. Well, after getting two and a half feet of snow in the last week, I am ready to warm things up with color! I decided to set a lunch table for some steaming hot soup and salad. 

First, here is what the great outdoors looks
like in my neck of the woods!





Now, are you ready to see some color?





See, I wasn't kidding!




Are you warming up?






A simple glass bowl of fruit repeats the colors.



I hope these dishes purchased from
Goodwill don't make you dizzy!



I decided to alternate striped bowls and solid ones,
and green napkins and gold ones.






















I found some colorful salt & pepper shakers, too!














Is it spring yet?

Thank you for visiting and I hope you stay warm!
