Tablescape Thursday


This was posted February 10, 2010, and deserves an encore, don't you think!

I'm joining Tablescape Thursday, thanks to Susan for hosting, go here for lots more inspiration.

Today I'm sharing a Valentine tablescape. I'm calling this one
"Pretty Cute!"

It is pretty, and it is cute!

I bought these conversation heart nut/candy cups several years ago at a discount dollar store. There were six in a package for a dollar!

Centerpiece is a shabby chic candlelier with pink tapers, pastel silk roses,
the nut cups, and

this pretty little Valentine figurine, she came from Home Goods, for only $5.99!


Conversation heart candy is scattered around the centerpiece.

View from the top:

A lace tablecloth is over lavender fabric.

The pastel striped napkins were given to me years ago.


A special place for you!
Please sit down and join us!


The flatware is the only new thing I bought:
I succumbed to temptation last week and bought this crystal-look flatware!

The price was right, so I just couldn't resist!
The plates are from Dollar Tree (years ago!)


I hope you enjoy this sweet Valentine's Day party!

Thank you for coming!
Happy Valentine's Day!

God Bless.

Katherine

Hi, Katherine! I didn't know about your blog back in 2010, so I'm glad you reposted! It's always so nice to see "back issues" that I missed! Those giant conversation hearts you used for the napkins are just so playful & fun!!! I've never seen anything like those before! Very nice! I hope you have a peaceful, relaxing weekend!
