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.

Patio Dinner Party..

My Inspiration for this Tablescape was having family over for
~~~ A dinner on my patio !! This was my first time this Summer, because of the Hot
Weather....
No tablecloth on this table ~~ I did use my light green placemats, and my ever
day flatware.. The same green color is in the salad plates.
My centerpiece was a mix of Magnolias and Hydgenea flowers.. Can you see my
Green vase is on my blue vintage plate for more height~~ because of the Candles..
I did use my vinage white napkins, and a light green color one !!!
The green glass will be filled with cold shrimp..Yummy
I Purchased my salad plate, and dinner plate from Wal-Mart for $1.50 each!!
This was great buy for my Summer table. I love the butterflys sweet.
I also love the pattern ~~ The color of this dinner plate is a Teal Blue~~~
Lets light the Candles, and have a glass of Wine !!!

I hope you all come Back !!!
