Christmas Tablescape
Setting a more formal table for Christmas dinner, it is time to get out the Lenox Holiday Tartan china inherited from my mother. She had exquisite taste, and these dishes were her favorites for holiday meals. I decided this year to use a green and gold theme since I haven't done it this way before, …
Thanksgiving Tablescape
I love Thanksgiving, it is my favorite day of the year! We usually don't have company on the day, but we enjoy extending the holiday through the weekend before getting to the December frenzy. On Saturday, we are having a small dinner party of six, so of course that means a pretty table. I set …

The leaves are changing now that November's cooler temperatures are here, and I am enjoying the wonderful fall colors. Falling leaves is a nice theme for an every day tablescape for the month, providing an opportunity to use what I have in a new way. Beginning with the base, I place my Maple Star Table …

Finally, it is officially Autumn, my favorite season of the year, although it isn't cool enough yet for the sweaters and a fire in the fireplace. Now, I can get out all the pumpkins and leaves I love, decorate the house and create a tablescape or two. I love the colors of this season as …

I know most bloggers are doing rabbits right now, but I decided that chickens were the perfect choice for a breakfast table. Tulips and daffodils and my spring ceramic basket are a good starting point. Setting the table …
Spring Chargers for the Table
Doing tablescapes is fun, and I have a lot of chargers in various colors, but I don't have anything light for spring. While at the thrift store, I couldn't resist this set of ragged looking chargers, four for $2. I really liked the detail on them, and knew I could use them to get the …
Mardi Gras Tablescape
It is Carnival season, essentially the month of January all the way to Fat Tuesday, which is February 13 this year. Another sewing day is planned, but I'm not quite sure when it will be. So far, we haven't been able to figure out when we can do another for reasons of weather and dates …
