Tablescaping

A Yellow Accented Tablescape

This past week we had a small dinner party.  I had so much fun coming up with this tablescape using the napkins I bought for my Thanksgiving tablescape in 2011.

My thoughtful niece gave me this yellow pitcher at Christmas time.  It’s perfect for my home.

Next to it is the little salt and pepper shaker that my son gave me years ago.

 I had Russell cut me a few branches from a bush that grows near our house for my centerpiece.  Very frugal, eh?

Have a happy week!

    I like your light yellow walls with the light colored chairs. 🙂 (Had little to do with your post, I’ll admit, but I’ve been into decorating lately.)

    This is so beautifully serene! I know I’m supposed to be looking mainly at the table setting, but I have to comment on the windows. I love the way you’ve kept them bare! That is SO what I want for our home, but I have a husband who digs in his heels on the subject. You get all that wonderful natural light, and you can see everything going on outside. It’s the perfect setup as far as I’m concerned! Maybe someday…… Meanwhile, the beautiful canary yellow is gorgeous! The branches from your yard are perfect with the rustic pitcher. I try to use whatever I can from my yard (and the yards of my unsuspecting neighbors! 😉 whenever possible. Very pretty!

      Alycia,

      Actually I do want some window coverings but we built our house 16 years ago and I still don’t have any. lol Like your husband, my husband doesn’t want any curtains on any of our windows either so all the curtains I have in mind are very minimal so that the view is not hindered.

      Thanks for the compliments!

    This is such a wonderful tablescape! Simple and to the point – like someone who really cares about family and serves a wonderful mean to go with that pretty table. I love the pitcher.

I love hearing from you! Thank you for taking the time to comment.
