Tablescapes, Moroccan Fantasy

Our anniversary is next week and we will be celebrating with 2 other couples at the beach.  That will be tons of fun, but I wanted to create a little romance…

I decided to whisk HH off to Morocco for a romantic dinner for 2~

    Jenna, this is beautiful. My sister-in-law and I are trying to come up with two different tablescapes for pier parties. I must start gathering and playing with it as soon as I can get there. I love this one. Where do you find all the great stuff that you don’t create yourself?? I like to shop at the beach but miss all the wonderful sources for dishes at the outlets there. You are such an inspiration and I mean it!!, Maureen

    Love that table setting. What an inspiration! Now, if only I had a real dining table, with your permission, I’d borrow the parts of this look that I could afford. 🙂

    Happy Anniversary! What a fun table filled with special details. Your chargers may just start a trend. Very clever idea! Of course I’m swooning over the parchment vase and candle holders. I’m a long time fan of McK-C, but don’t have any of the parchment pieces. That may need to change! ‘-)

    • Thank you Sarah, you have some enviable Mck-C pieces yourself and lots of other quite stunning pieces that I am always drooling over 🙂 Thanks for the anniversary wishes~and you will see some more charger ideas in the future!

  12. Ann K says:

    This is fantastic – I want to rush out and make some of those gorgeous chargers, right now! Love your color selections – that blue is just the prettiest shade. I visited Morocco a few years ago and you are making crave some of that delicious mint tea that I had there. It is the only tea that I have ever really liked and I am a southern girl – lol!! Great job on this table!

  16. All those wonderful colors….Love your table!
