I'm going to post the tops of my kitchen cabinets later on tonight.(after I check for webs he he) Again, you did a beautiful job on the tablescape!! Kristen
Hi Melissa...oh, this is so very pretty! I love the way you posted your pics in that trio arrangement...I need to learn how to do that. You really have a gorgeous home... ;-) Bo
Your first table looks awesome!! Loved the tassels - what a great idea!! Everything looks so festive! I'm going to have to take the plunge soon and join in the fun. Maybe next week?? I love your trio of pictures - Lynette
Beautiful tablescape! I love all the details-the tassles, the jewels in the candle holder to add extra sparkle--and I LOVE how you layered the placemats! That's a new one for me, and an idea I think I'll 'borrow' from you if you don't mind!! ;-)
Congratulations on your new blog--I'm new at this as well! I love the colors of your tablescape, the tassels on the goblets and the layers of placemats. I also love the photos you have shown of your house. I look forward to more:) Miss Janice
Your Thanksgiving table is so pretty. I noticed you have the same paint colors in your home as I do........which of course means you have very good taste. Welcome to the world of blogging I am sure you will enjoy and get hooked. Visit my cottage when you have a minute.
Girlfriend...welcome aboard Blogland! Hehe! Wow...you're already doing a fabulous job with your blog...I just love the photo of your home (that you used as the header)...what a gorgeous home you have! My dream home looks just like this...wink!
Also...what a lovely tablescape! It's absolutely gorgeous!!! I love that pretty glass candleholder that you've used for the centerpiece! Magnificent!!!
Have lots of fun, girlfriend! I'll be checking in with you!
I have often heard that red is a stimulating color and I would have to agree. I'm not gutsy enough to use it, but really admire someone that does. I find this very visually exciting. Love everything. If RMS ever straightens out, I will check out your post there.
Beautiful table! Centerpiece is gorgeous...love the napkin rings and rooster S & P...so cute! Your colors are so warm and inviting...just perfect for fall! Susan
Hi Dianne, Yes! My husband is stationed at Cherry Point but we live in J'ville.~Small world huh? Are you a USMC family as well? Thanks for visiting. ~Melissa
HI Melissa, I learned how to make the signature from Rhoda at Southern Hospitality and am glad to share it with you. Here is the site: http://www.mylivesignature.com/mls_use_signature.php?sid=54486-286-D6B97274B05ABE8BBB80522C745A9464 You can customize it any way you want. Enjoy! PEggy from PA

Thanks for responding Melissa. I go to J'ville all the time to shop at Marshalls. LOL We are not military, my husband is in the medical business. If you'd like to email me it's diannedballard@gmail.com Perhaps we can get to know each other better. xoxo Dianne
Wow girl that table setting is gorgeous...love the little tassels on the glasses and that salt and pepper shaker is so cute..I love chickens! lol Thanks so much for coming by..hope you have had a great day and that the rest of the week is just a great for you!
Melisssa, I work really hard for each bride that hires me. I add so many little touches that makes them so happy and it shows we they send me thank notes. I pin each person in the wedding and I never leave the bride untill she has walked down and the isle and I know everything is ok. But to be honest we get invited to all most every wedding. I have been so booked I finally took off the month of Nov. to get some of my stuff done at and around the house. I have over 2,000 sq feet of wedding rooms and my design room is just in disray! Thanks, for stopping by again always a pleasure talking to and visiting you. blossom
Hi Melissa, So I made you giggle?!! He He. It wasn't funny at the time, but now it is! I still can't belive it never dawned on me, that's why I felt so stupid! This isn't the first crazy thing I've done and I'm sure it won't be the last. Kristen
Sorry I was not home when you came by to visit. I went out to lunch with Steve and then went to one of my favorite interior stores. It's in New Trenton Indiana. It's called Sackstedeters Interiors. They where having a sale on christmas ribbon buy on bolt and get a second one free. So I am going to do my fire place mantel. I got a leopard and gold ribbon; my great room is gold and the custome drapes are a gold, plum, weird colors. I have so much to do and can't get focus on what to do first. Unlike when I have a wedding to do I'm on pilot. The sun just came out and I still have about 7 mums to plant from the containers to the yard. blossom
This exquisite setting is prefect for a intimate formal dinner. I appreciate seeing this, since large tablescapes are more commonly featured during the Holiday season, which not all entertaining is on a large scale. Thanks for sharing these ideas.
Welcome! Thank you for visiting my blog. I am a USMC wife married to a wonderful man for fourteen years. He's a CH-53E pilot and has done three fleet tours overseas. I am very proud of him and his hard work. For many years I worked in retail jewelry sales and finally decided it was time to stop and enjoy my decorating passion. We share our home with our cat Chestnut, Lloyd the cockatiel and a betta fish. I appreciate all of your comments and try to respond to as many as I can. Join me! I would be happy for you to follow along.
