Finished The Table

Salted Candles

Photos to Inspect

Okay, this is called a picture dump.  You gets lots of pictures...unfortunately it's all dumb stuff.  :-)


We'll start with the proposed centerpiece for the table.  That is going to be so cute with flowers in it.  I can't wait.  A cup and plate from the milk glass set and the silver serving pieces.  

This would be on a side table.  I am using the mg bowl as a punch bowl and the little vase will have a mini flower bouquet in it.  I may or may not use these napkins in the shot.  I love them, but the pinks might not be right.  Also next to the tray would be the cake plate with our FABULOUS pink cake.  :-) 

I doubt I will use these napkins.

My mini punch bowl.

This is the top of the bistro table.  This picture is mainly to see the size dimensions.  I think this will work perfectly. 

Here is colors for the rustic beach themed tablescape.  This is actually just a big stack of everyday plates and the plastic stuff.  The plastic stuff has not even been unwrapped yet.  That is a pack of 4 plates and 4 bowls.

Shadowy shot...lighting was not good, but you get the idea.  I thought this looked okay together.  What do you think?

It's okay so far, but it needs work.  Table cloth is too dark and formal.  I want a lighter blue.  Too bad since this one was free.  :-)   I need napkins of some sort.  I love the center, but it needs a little more work.  I threw this together in about two minutes.  For the real shot I should get the leaves going in the right directions. 

 

The yellow dish cloth matches perfectly, but does not really work.  I need real napkins.  :-)

Pink and Green {Sherbert Party}

Again, the lighting is not good, but it was not worth moving the table for good shots here.

• not sure what I will do with the two platters of pink bowls and collanders.  {I might move this to a smaller table and get rid of those altogether.}
• White platter will have round cookies decorated to look like lemon slices and lime slices.  {homemade.}

I took a small bowl and turned it upside down in the big bowl and then piled lemons and limes up on top.  Pretty cool. 

I found some napkins that I was saving for something else, but they were so perfect, I caved and I will used them here.  I grabbed a lime green scrapbook flower for a bit of color on the plate.  Imagine a small clear glass ice cream dish on top of the flower and napkin. 




This needs work.  I wish I had the lime green napkins to go in this little caddy.  I'll probably remove the knives.  Maybe straws can go in a compartment.  Overall, I think it is cute.  I love the scrapbook flower on the front.

I'll probably make some sort of cute sign or recipe to go on the table.  This was my experiment to see if it would work. It does.  I used to magnetic fridge clips and turned them upside down.  I'll get some cute scrapbook paper and a few flowers or something to cutesty it up.

Alyssa is Knitting!

Look at her go.  She has done that all on her own.  I got her started with the first tow rows...she has done the rest.  She started that last night!
