Laurie’s Valentine Party & Tablescape Thursday!

On Friday besides visiting Laurie’s Party head over to the Mennonite Girls Can Cook blog where I’ve posted the recipe for this dessert that would be great for Valentine’s Day! Remember the recipe won’t be posted till Friday!

Now for some possibilities for a Valentine Day scape!

 

 

 

This was last years bar scape that Dear and I had our Valentine’s Day dinner at…

 

 

 

 

 

Another possibility without red…

 

 

 

Here are the two cutest Valentine’s in love that I know!! My parents who have been married for 66 years!

 

Hoping you have a Valentine’s Weekend filled with lots of love for all the people in your life.

Photobucket is holding all my photos that I stored on their site from 2007-2015 hostage replacing them with ugly grey and black boxes and asking for a large ransom to retrieve them. It is a slow process to go through all my posts deleting the ugly boxes.

Halloween Tablescape Thursday…

Today is a fun day in blog world because Susan at Between Naps on the Porch hosts Tablescape Thursday. It’s a chance to set a table and share your ideas with others. It’s fun to see the creativity out there. Because Saturday is Halloween I decided to try to come up with a Halloween Scape.

 

I found 4 of these cute Pumpkin and Scarecrow Placemats at a thrift store last weekend. I paid $1.95 for all 4. I wanted to show you them before I covered them up with chargers and stuff. The spider dish candle holder was from Target clearance last year and I think I paid about 50 cents for it.

 

The white chargers with black jewel borders were from T.J. Maxx. The square pumpkin plates are paper from Target. The polka dot napkins and the Pewter forks, knives and spoons were from a thrift store, also.

 

I don’t have a lot of Halloween accessories but was happy to scrape up enough for a scape :0)

 

 

Have a safe and sane Halloween Weekend everyone…

Tablescape Thursday ~ Sparkly Spring

It’s time for more Tablescapes from around the Bloggy World. Susan at Between Naps on the Porch is our hostess for this weekly event. This week I’m putting together some Garage sale  and Thrift store finds to create a sparkly table.

 

I got the 7 crystal looking tea light holders for $1.00. The silver candle holders with hanging crystals were $5.00 for both.

 

The Cake plate was purchased at the Thrift store for $5.00 because the base was separated from the Plate. Dear fixed it for me.

 

 

 

The plates are from HomeGoods at $2.00 each. The glasses are from Goodwill.

 

I love these little silver teapot napkin rings. I have 7 of them and I forgot what I paid at Goodwill. The vintage handkerchiefs that I layered with the napkins were $2.00 each.

To see more Tablescapes or to join in visit Susan at Between Naps on the Porch. As usual my Thursday post is up on Wednesday so don’t click till later or tomorrow. Are you confused yet?  I hope not. Have a wonderful evening and fabulous Thursday (tomorrow)…

Photobucket is holding all my photos I stored with them from 2007-2015 hostage unless I pay them a lot of money. I’m slowly cleaning up many posts from this time period and deleting their ugly grey and black boxes with a ransom request. Such a time consuming bother.
