Time for our Tablescape Thursday fun day! Thanks for Susan for hosting so we can enjoy playing with our dishes! Go here for lots more inspiration!
Today's tablescape theme is Time for Tea! The inspiration for this tablescape started with these pretty chargers. I bought these chargers at Ross last Christmas for $1.99 each.
I really like the rich mahogany color with the golden roses embossed around the edges.
I shopped the house to find something for the centerpiece. These clocks came from Hobby Lobby, the small one I just found yesterday at 80% off!
I have a real weakness for the cute clocks available these days and sometimes give in when they are marked way down on sale!
I used the pretty butterscotch yellow plates and cups from T.J. Maxxand the yellow handled flatware my husband bought for me:
This pretty scarf and
deep red roses complete the centerpiece.
Time for Tea tablescape:
The tablecloth is tone on tone yellow with a large check design. I have been looking for a yellow tablecloth and found this one last fall. This is the first time I've used it.
I used two napkins, a yellow and a burgundy doubled.
Faux dried roses are used as napkin rings. I use these roses in a bouquet in our master bedroom, and didn't want to cut them apart.
This tablescape matches the walls in our dining room very well
View from the top:
I hope you enjoyed my Time for Tea tablescape!
A special place for you!
The other guests will arrive soon!
This is an encore presentation, some of you may recognize this tablescape from last year. I'm reposting it since I'm not feeling well today and didn't get a new tablescape done.
I'm also linking to The Style Sisters Centerpiece Wednesday. Go here for more centerpiece inspiration.
Have a great day, and take time for tea!

What a steal on the chargers...they are GORGEOUS! I had to take a double take because they looked a little like etched or cut glass! I love the color scheme and love the clocks on the table! How original!
Hi Katherine,
Beautiful job with your tablescape, those chargers are very pretty and unusual, I really like them just so elegant. I too have a thing for clocks and love yours, and getting one with 80% off makes it even better. Burgundy and cream are absolutely beautiful together. Thank you for sharing.

You do have a flair for this hobby, Katherine! I would have knocked you over to get to those GORGEOUS chargers! LOL They are going to work for you in so many different tablescapes. Oh, the possibilities!
Very creative use of those wonderful clocks, too. I wish I had some unusual ones around here. Mine are blah.

Thanks for popping in!
Be a sweetie,

How beautiful! I like the contrast of the dark and light plates. And how fun to use clocks as a centerpiece--esp. with a Time for Tea theme.
A very elegant tablescape. I would never have thought to put it all together and you do such a beautiful job.
So very beautiful! I really love the idea of using a few clocks as the centerpiece. Martha Stewart should hire you as her chief tablescape person! Seriously!! xoxo
Your table is beautiful. I love your chqargers! They are incredible. Your use of the clocks as a centerpiece is genius!! Thanks for inspiring... hugs ~lynne~

Oh, I miss having a Ross close! I don't even know where the closest one is now that we've moved. Too far, at any rate. Gorgeous setting though. Love the clocks, and the yellow is so pretty. Thanks for sharing!
Those yellow plates and handles on the silverware are so charming. They almost read as a neutral. And that crocheted looking scarf. Just a beautiful tablescape.
I love clocks, too. Your tablescape looks great. Love your chargers and dishes.
This is a unique tablescape design! Lucky you on grabbing those chargers, very pretty. Mmmmm...I wonder what you'll have the "time" to make and serve, Joan
Your color coordination is perfection! And you have the most unique centerpieces! This was wonderful!
All the best,
Eileen
Ahhh..yes..what a great idea with those clocks...cute as heck!
Since I wasn't around last year, I'm glad you reposted it. I think it is so pretty and so creative!
Love the clocks and scarf in the center the best of all. And those dried flowers with the napkins are right up my alley too!
It was new to me.. I loved the color combination and the beautiful chargers. Great find in the tablecloth. Feel better soon.
What a unique tablescape! My grandfather had a jewelry store and sold and collected antique clocks. My mother inherited the collection. She would have loved this tablescape. Thank you for sharing it.
Oh how pretty -- and a good reminder that it's almost "time" for a change of season!
Clocks are fantastic...I adore those chargers. Beautiful tablescape...but of course, it would be!!
Stunning. Simply stunning. Jackie
I have those dishes in turquoise but I love them in yellow, really pretty. Love your tablescape, Katherine. And no, I will never sell the peacock napkin rings, lol. I do not have a table big enough in the store to set a complete tablescape but I took a picture and posted it there. Thanks for the visit and tip...Christine
I am loving the clocks!! Great idea. Thanks for linking up to Centerpiece Wed!1
