Happy Birthday

It's Thursday and that means Tablescape Thursday.

Be sure to hop over to Susan's at

Between Naps On The Porch for a look at her magical

creation and then visit with all the others that are

joining in today's event.

Today I would like to show you the tablescape I did for

a dear friend of mine.

You see it was her Birthday and she was feeling a little

down in the dumps. I won't mention the number,

although I will never see that small number again,

30 for me was a bad day, and when 50 rolled around

I was feeling better about life than I had for years. I

think that I had put allot of things in the place they

should be. Some things in life just aren't worth

worrying about.

So lets start the Party!!!

We had a pink and black party.

I used an antique pink quilt for the tablecloth, pink

balloons and candles.

I have used black place mats with black and white stripped napkins, a TJ Maxx find. Napkin rings are pink beaded. The guest of honors party hat.

Lots of girlie pink candle light.

Pink rose petals.

This was just a busy table.

Our place cards were these little banks that look like

purses, I used two black and two pink.

A full view of the place setting, pale pink wine glasses,

flatware by Gibson. Pink beaded charms on the glasses.

My standby black dishes, with a treat in the middle.

A TJ Maxx find.

This is so true!!!

A final look before we eat.

Smile Kim, It's not that bad and I haven't told that

small magical number! I know your looking!!!!

Ready to eat?????

Comfort food for a cool night.

Creamy potato soup, corn muffins, cheese ball, fresh

baked pear mini tarts and of course coffee or tea.

Well I hope you enjoyed our little Birthday Party.

I know your reading this Kim, so once again Happy Birthday.

Thanks for visiting and I hope you take a minute to leave a

comment, suggestion or question.

I'll see everyone at "The Cloche Party" Friday.

Bye for now,

Sandy
