Tablescapes, Save the Ta-Tas!
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month and I am dedicating this post to 3 very important and amazing women in my life. My sister-in-law, PP~a BFF, VM~ and my niece CTS. My SIL and BFF struggled and brilliantly fought breast cancer and have been in remission now for over 10 years. My niece has walked literally thousands of miles all over the country raising awareness and money for this very important cause. I want to honor them today, on the eve of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and thank them for their courage and inspiration.
I shopped the house and gathered all things pink, girly and pretty
and set a table just for them~
and even though we all cannot be together today
to celebrate their courage
I invite them to join me virtually
along with you and anyone you’d like to invite
to honor them
and thank them for their spirit and dedication
to this important fight
So sit down
take a breath
and enjoy the pinkness!
Please remember to make a donation soon~below are the links to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, and the Susan G. Komen site both with donation information, shopping, FAQs and just about anything you want to know.

What a wonderful surprise! Made me have tears in my eyes before I go to work. The table setting is beautiful and I appreciate your honoring all three of us and thinking of everyone out there who has been touched by breast cancer in one way or another. Love you!
Hi Jenna – Oh my goodness I can’t even begin to thank you for honoring the loved ones in your life with this beautiful tablescape. I’m sitting here on the couch watching TV with the laptop and Hubby sees me with tears literally running down my face and was like.. “what’s wrong?” I told him they are happy tears and showed him your tablescape. I’m incredibly touched and thanks again. And thanks for linking up and being a part of the Pinktastic Party. Hugs from Your Warrior Sister, Holly
I am so glad you saw it Holly, when I read about what you were planning for the fall, I knew immediately that I wanted to do a pink table for all affected by this horrible disease. I admire your courage for being so open about your experiences, and I couldn’t wait to surprise my special peeps with a table! Thank you so much for the inspiration!
Talk about creative, your table is wonderful, what could be better, a great message, pink and good food…I keep telling myself to get more pink, that is the one color I have very little of, and I always loved it and am always drawn to tablescapes with pink…what a wonderful job and it looks like you had a good time, thats so imortant…Phyllis
Jenna, So creative and such a fun reminder to Save the Ta-Tas and to remind us all to Think Pink!
What a beautiful tribute to the breast cancer survivors in your life. Thank you for this reminder to consider their cause this coming month. I enjoyed your pink table, but most of all how you made the breast cancer symbol with the scarf on the napkin!
Blessings!

Wow, you are so ingenius, how fabulous and what a super way to honor everyone. Love it. Thanks so much for linking to Inspire Me. Hugs, Marty
That is a wonderful tribute and reminder to all of us about breast cancer awareness month. I lost my BFF three years ago to breast cancer so this touches me very deeply. Congrats to your three ladies on beating this dreaded disease.
I am so sorry for your loss Karen, thank you for your comment~
Well, I knew when I saw your link name it was going to have an effect on me. However I didn’t know I would get:
Teary, because of your sincere and sweet tribute to your girls
Looked at by hubby because I laughed out loud when I saw a bra on the table….I will remember this table for years to come! You have to be the sweetest, dearest and most clever woman! LOL. Your table rocks!
Oh, Christine I am sorry I made you cry, but I am so happy I made you laugh too! Thank you so much for the sweet comments!
So creative and so inspirational! The bra put a smile on my face, lol!…Christine
Perfect in every way. I lost my best friend to Breast Cancer when we were 39 years old. She is cheering your delightful, never give in tablescape from heaven. Thanks for inviting us for a peak. Cherry Kay
What a fun table for a very serious disease. Thanks for honoring the cause, Jenna.
Have a wonderful week…
Pretty pink and oh so feminine! This tribute is a wonderful way to show your love for these courageous women and all the other survivors. This is a beautiful table and the bra was a great touch. Have a wonderful week!

What a fun table honoring your family members. I’m sure they appreciate this and you being there for them. And thanks for honoring the cause.
I love love love this tribute to your three very important ladies.I add my name to this list also but the greatest thing about this table is the pink BRA what a great idea. I tell you I may miss my tatas but I don’t miss wearing a bra .such freedom without. thank you for creating this Honor.Susie
You are so welcome Susie! It is my honor to pay tribute to you, I am so sorry you have been affected. One thing I have learned from the people I know that have had this terrible disease is that they are all so full of positive life and spirit, it is so inspiring!
