First Tablescape for 2015

New Year's Eve Table 

A New Year and I guess my computer 
decided I needed a break.
On New Year's Eve I tried to post 
my New Year Eve's table.
Things did not work out I could 
not upload any of the photo's.
Well low and behold I finally tired again and
 it worked,
Better late than never!!!
Ladies I give to you my
 New Year's Eve Table
2014

I shopped the house and only purchased a few
 filler items for the center piece,
I began with a black cloth
Centerpiece is arranged on a silver tray with glass candle holders, 
silver garland and silver ornaments and trees.
 With a special appearance from a 
Doyle and Dollie silver New Year Eves bird.

Summer Whimsy Table X 2

SUMMER 

WHIMSY TABLE X 2

I have not posted in so long that I may have forgot how. Hope it is like riding a bike you never forget.

I did not want to miss Cuisine Kathleen challenge for a summer whimsy table. So I decided this morning to set my table on my deck. Of course it was Texas blazing hot even in the morning. I couldn't even come in and cool off as our air conditioner decide to only blow hot air. Our favorite friendly air conditioner twin repairmen is here now. Yes he and his twin and father have a air conditioner company and I think we have them on speed dial. Always glad that they wear shirts that have there name embroidery on them as I can't ever tell them apart. How did I ever survive  with a swamp cooler in Texas!! 

 Oh!!! guess I better get to my Table Scape 

I searched the house and 

did not buy one thing.

Table is set for two maybe we will

 enjoy supper when it gets cooler.

The table cloth was a Home Goods find 

again I shopped the house.

Plates which have four

patterns were purchased 

at Stein Mart several years ago.

Glasses got them at Wal Mart 

at least 6 years ago.

             

 

Love the little metal chair candle holders,
can always find fun things at DG.

Buffet Serving area-----Cabinets we removed 

from my living area when we moved in.

                                          

  

                                   

Just a quick Whimsy table had fun 

on a spur of the moment

 Thanks Kathleen for the challenge

Yes that is a golf course that

 you see in the background.

Sure was glad that the golfers were

 hitting the fairway and not my deck.

Special Guest Table Scape

Now for the 2nd table!!!

My junking buddy put a cute summer table 

together that I want to share.

Table on her deck!

 Same set up with a little change 

but she moved 

inside to her dinning table

 Love the bright colors. 

Tablecloth is a vintage buy from eBay.

 Daisy glasses great find at

 a local antique shop.

White daisy plate GW & napkin rings Fitz & Floyd 

on line outlet shop.

Chargers and place mates or from Pier One.

Got to get this girl blogging!

We are Junking/Shopping partners and do like the same things 

which gets us in trouble sometime.

Hope you have enjoyed our

In Between Holiday Tablescapes

As I set here writing this, West Texas sand has blown in to North Texas

 and my head is telling me about it. I use to live in West Texas 

an always suffered when those red clouds blew in.

 Only in Texas can you have in one month

 ICE< SNOW<10 degrees <SUN with  75 degrees< 

29 mile gust with SAND  and 65 degrees.

 Guess it is better than 10 feet of snow and 10 degrees. 

During this time of the year I am in a dilemma. 

Don't you hate it when you are undecided!

 I think it is to early for St. Patrick decoration, Mardi Gras isn't until  March

 and then Easter is in April. 

What to do?????

 So thought I would pull out some of the dishes I have not used in a while.

 So here is a quick look at my In Between Tablescape.

Country Life 

by Warren Kimble

Red Round Barn 

 Rooster egg cups & Barn napkin rings

were a Thrift store but before I ever found the dishware.

All the Warren Kimble dishes were found at Goodwill, some in my home town 

and others at Goodwill in Amarillo!!!

Maybe that is why the sand is blowing, 

wanted the dishes to fill they were at home ;) 

Visited a friend  that I play dishes with yesterday. Just had  to share her tablescape 

        Table 1

Check below which tablecloth do you like best. 

Table 2

 I have not talked  her in to blogging so I get to share her tables with you.

She is a dish alcoholic like me!

Isn't it great to have friends to play dishes with.
