You know the saying,
“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade?”
Well, when life gives you flowers, do a tablescape!
I recieved an unexpected and beautiful bouquet
of flowers the other day
and I knew a tablescape would not be far away!
I knew these flowers would look pretty
with my summery abstract plates~
I had to get started, I just couldn’t wait!
I used the matching place mat I painted under the vase,
it was the perfect place!
You can see the tutorial for the painted place mat here
There are flower candlesticks on either side
On top of soft turquoise flowers
they are having a quite a nice ride!
Looking down from above,
there is a lot of blooming love!
The plates are sitting on a ruffled pink place mats
With fringed pink napkins held by a bloom
There are so many pretty flowers all over the room~
It’s been much too hot in the “city” for Alfresco dining outside
I’ll be happily enjoying this table inside!
Thanks so much for your visit!
