I'm tickled pink (:-) to be able to bring you a tablescape this week. My favorite color is pink, and in honor of 'Breast Cancer Awareness' month I wanted to put together something simple, easy and 'cheap', again this one cost me zero dollars because I had all the stuff already in. The plates and glasses are the same but I used the pink place mats I got back in April for my Easter table this year.
It's a rather eclectic look. I used a cream tablecloth (which actually looks white in the photos) then added my pink place mats and on top of that the red charger plates. The checkered napkins have a burgundy and green look to them (bought with Christmas in mind a few years ago) and the table is scattered with pretty pastel silk flowers (that I used at the Easter table also).
But I think it turned out quite pretty, don't you? The centerpiece is the vase of beautiful roses my neighbor/friend had delivered to me last Friday for my birthday (I just realized I didn't post about them on here, because I added it to my Facebook status!)
The white napkins are wrapped with a pretty pink ribbon (again from the Easter table) with silk flowers added.
I added my two new birthday gifts (from my inlaws) pretty Willow Tree ornaments. The one above is called 'Angel of Miracles' (she's holding a baby duck in her hands), and the one below is called 'Angel of Hope'. I only had about 6 of these in my collection so I told my mil that I wanted to start adding to it (I think I'll put more on my Christmas wish list), they are so pretty ;-)
evening shots. . . . because everything looks so pretty by candle light

Denise oh my goodness you won Sherri's Fall giveaway! She is one of the sweetest blogger's around and she was one of the winners of my B-day giveaway a few months ago. Congrats! You are a lucky lady!
Your tablescpe is absolutely lovely and perfect for the Pink awareness month. I just adore it and all the elegance of the pretty flowers. We have the same crystal goblets. Yay! ~Lovely job!
Thank you very much for all the sweet compliments on our home. Sometimes I worry it's too dark and that most people don't really like it. I'm so glad you enjoy warm reds, golds and greens as well. I really appreciate it. I do that sometimes at Kirklands believe me. They are hit or miss for me some days. I just got an email from them today and they do have the cutest new stuff now. They have some neat trio blue perfume bottles I'm going to go check out tomorrow.
I ordered the buffet lamps at "Lamps Plus" online a few years ago. Kirklands does have buffet lamps though.
See you soon my friend.
~Blessings, ~Melissa :)
PS Your new blog design looks gorgeous!
Beautiful table, Denise, and great theme! I immediately was looking for pink ribbons and saw you used them to tie the napkins. :) The willow tree angels are so sweet. I've bought them lately for gifts. They have them for many occassions. (((Hugz)))
Love your pretty pink for The Cause Tablescape that you did today. Thanks for coming by, very nice to meet you.
Denise, your pink table is so very pretty on this gloomy rainy night. Almost makes me feel like spring is around the corner! A belated happy birthday to you......♥ your sweet little Willow Tree angels.
Very pretty and femine table--perfect for Breast Cancer Awareness! I love the willow figurines too--I have some of the nativity and one other. My daughter has some nice ones too--I love yours and the way they looked on the table....so nice!!
Beautiful tablescape. Looks entirely different with the different lighting! Love what you've done with the napkins! Have a great week! Sherri
:) That is a lovely table. I love how different it looks in candle light. Just beautiful!
