Hello Everyone!
How about a little summer time cheer?
When I think of red and yellow it always makes me smile.
Today was glorious and bright and it made me happy.
I hope you are too!
I found the hummingbird dessert plates at Marshalls too.
I did. They are from the Princess House catalog.
Time to announce the winner of my $50 gift card giveaway.

I doubled that number to 208 and ran the number generator.
The winner is Karen at Gott Joy! #31
Congrats Karen! I will be in touch.

Melissa, that table is beautiful! I really love those hummingbird plates. What a lucky find. They are perfect with your other dishes.
We don't have Marshall's in the Oklahoma City area. Bummer.
i always love looking at your fantastic tablescapes!
Dearest Melissa,
You for sure didn't match the wall colors for this theme on yellow and red...?!
Looks lovely and sure those glasses are very vibrant for use in the summer. Your own imagination is the only limit!!!

ooh I used red goblets this week too. I love your plates.. both that they are red and that there are hummingbirds.. lovely.
Very pretty table-love your goblets!
What a pretty setting! I love the color scheme, and those red square chargers are beautiful!
Can you believe I have never been in a Marshall's? I guess I need to get over there! I love those hummingbird plates!
What a beautiful table setting! LOVE the red!

This is quite pretty! Love those salad plates layered on the red plates (I have some of those too) and yes, I have to ban myself from Marshall's every now and then too!
What a lovely table. I just love red and yellow. I have the red square plates on the bottom from Home Goods, they must have the same buyers. We don't have Marshall's here and it is a treat to find one. Your table is lovely and so is your home.
great looking table!
Congrats to Karen...awesome for her!!~ I love your vibrant red table scape it looks so pretty Melissa.
Melissa,

Greetings, Johanna
Melissa, very pretty red table...looks like quite a number of us did red this week!
Have a happy birthday planting your new trees!
Planting trees is a great thing to do for your birthday. I have a dogwood we planted for my 29th birthday in my backyard. In the front yard is a Japanese Red Maple planted for my thirtieth! I am now 51 so they have grown quite a bit! My kids gave me a pear tree for Mother's day one year too. Green is great!
The tablescape is lovely too...
Luv'in the RED and BLACK!

Hi Melissa,
Beautiful table setting and floral. Love the vibrant colors and yes - the goblets are perfect!!
Thank you for your visit to my blog and I have to tell you, after reading your post about the stand from Marshalls...I went in search of one too. They didn't have one at the Marshalls here in my town but that's alright because I found TONS of cute dishes. I bought plates, a serving platter and a beautiful covered dish - haha! I'll just blame my little shopping excursion on you - just kidding! Have a wonderful weekend.
God Bless,
Kathleen
