Island Style!

Several months ago, I found these placemats at Gordman's. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I bought them. They are very tropical looking and Colorado is about as opposite as you can get from a tropical island.

I was planning on using my green dishes from Ross. At least they were the right color. Then, I found exactly what I needed. These square bowls and matching plates were found in a thrift store. I love how they look like grasscloth, and fit my tropical theme perfectly.

I hope you enjoy!

I found the fabric for the napkins at Jo-Ann's.

Instead of flowers, I decided to make a

simple centerpiece of bamboo, fern, and

some squiggly things.

Time to light the torches candles!

Goblets, all plates, and napkin rings are from Goodwill

Mercury glass votive holders are from Michael's

Vase and candlesticks are from Ross

Bamboo flatware is from SteinMart

Green stems are from Dollar Tree

Painting the Garden Pink!

I usually like to do my tablescapes on Mondays or Tuesdays. But, we have had some crazy wind, and today was the first opportunity to put something together without the worry of it blowing away! The color this week is pink!

I hope you enjoy!



The lighting changes, because I took some

photos in the morning and some in the afternoon.

St. Francis has a way of making everything seem serene.

Of course, I had to mix things up, using a striped plate with a floral one. I think the addition of striped napkins makes it okay. Besides, there are no rules, right?

These napkins were once a valance!

Thank you so much for visiting!
