I love designing tablescapes. I started back in September 2010 and I now design tablescapes to share on my blog as well as on "Between Naps on the Porch" for Tablescape Thursdays.

My passion for designing tablescapes has sent me out on a search to buy more dishes that I can share every week.

I also enjoy making my own napkins to go with my different dishes and I love to mix and match some of my beautiful dishes.

~~My First Rooster~~

This is a Re' Post for Tonight's dinner.
My Inspiration for this Tablescape was my first Rooster!!!
My Ceterpiece is a combination of my Rooster, Candlelight and
lots of  Daisys~~~ The tablecloth Is a robin blue, with  my
Crochet one on top!! for a farm house look~~ did I get the look ladies ?
I only have four layers of China this time.
 My chocolate brown soup bowl will be filled with home made Tomato soup !
The tomatos look so good in the stores right now.
I did purchased some new China from Pier 1 Imports~~
The salad plate has a ruffled eage with a flower pattern.The colors are robin egg blue
and white...

This dinner plate is Chocolate Brown with Robin egg blue ~~
I did use my white charger becouse of my dinner plate was square!!!
The pattern on my China is called Cassidy and is hand-painted ~~~
I did use a Chocolate brown placemat for a pop.
I hope you are having a wonderful Day !!!
Let's have some pink lemonaid with wine and light the candles !!!



I love my Mason jars ~~~
I know what's for dinner..
To night is Baked Lasagna with Garlic Bread soooo Good !!
and a Big green salad~~ for dessert New York cheese cake..
I did use my Vintage Flatware..
I hope you all come Back!!
Please take a moment to comment. Thank you so much!

Diane,
This is certainly a tablescape to "crow" about! Sorry...I couldn't resist! Stunning is more appropriate! The choice of colors is refreshing. I adore how the brown grounds each setting! The blue is relaxing and invites one to linger after the meal for some time spent with family and friends!
Fondly,
Pat

During the summer months, think about using the heat from the sun to dry your clothes instead of utilizing a dryer. Hanging your clothes outside to dry in the sun will give your clothes an incredible fresh smell. Sun-drying clothes gives them a fresh smell. You can also save money on your energy bills.
