Happy Valentine's Day! I originally posted my Valentine's Tablescape a couple weeks ago but thought it would be perfect for a Chari's Sunday Favorites post. I apologize if you have already seen it..but this was one of my favorites !
Original post 2/3/10
These placemats and matching napkins were purchased in the most beautiful shoppe in Carmel last year. These were on sale and I loved the print and rich colors.
I used my faux pearl braclets again for napkin rings! My napkins wear them as much as I do.
My favorite red goblets...I love the bubbles in the glass.
The flatware is King Cedric-Oneida.
I layered a portugal charger, then my Lenox "Butterfly Meadow" salad plate and topped it with a white sunflower bowl.
It still needed more red so I found a set of fun little bowls I bought at Christmas just because they were so cute..a polka dot and a stripe.
I finshed the table with a white votives candles in crystal holders and a red and white bouquet of flowers.
before I could finish the table...I had some visitors drop by and they love chocolate so much I...
added two heart shaped ramekins from Target (their favorite store) filled with chocolate truffles just for them.
So now I have two looks for this place setting...a heart shaped ramekin or a cute little polka dot bowl as a finishing touch. I must say I really do like the little ramekins too.
Those little lovebirds really like dining by candlelight!
Happy Valentine's Day!
So very, very pretty~

ReplyDeleteI just adore a red and white tablescape. You created a showstopping thing of beauty here. Your placemats are gorgeous in all of the warm colors. Love them! I have the same goblets in green and adore them as well. They are just lovely in red. It's all fantastic, elegant and very creative!

Beautiful, beautiful table! do I still see your Christmas tree up! How long do you keep it up? I know some people decorate it for V-day, do you?
ReplyDeleteLove it! I am partial to red anyway since my kitchen is done primarily in red.

This is just gorgoeus. I love all of the various pieces you have for the tablescape. I can't decide between the polka dot bowl or the ramekins. They are both just perfect. Love the little Target Love Birds too. Everything is just lovely. Hugs, Marty

What a beautiful table. It must be a lot of work to make all of those reds match perfectly. Ya done good!!!
ReplyDeleteThe only kind of tablescapes I make around here involve fast food bags and our comfy chair/couch in front of the TV. HOWEVER - - - if I DID act like a classy lady and make a tablescape for Valentine's Day, I would want it to look JUST LIKE these individual place settings. Sooooo cute - - - and I want the chocolate in that little heart too.
ReplyDeleteYour Valentine's tablescape is lovely! I really love those placemats and napkins! Thanks for sharing it with us again!
