I asked Bonnie if she would also share a little information about each tablescape. I told her we were all nosey and we're bound to ask! If you see something in a tablescape and would like more information, just leave your question in a comment and I'll try to get an answer for you or perhaps Bonnie will answer back in a comment herself. :-)
Let's start with a wonderfully romantic Valentine's Day tablescape...the centerpiece with the floating candles and white doves takes my breath away! And look at those cute candles and candle holders! (Chargers are from Panache, Pink Morning Glory dishes are from TJ Maxx, Heart salad plates are from Harry & David, Candlesticks are Lenox, and Dove Bowl is from Casa Casa.)
Love the mix of pink and red china...flatware is perfect!
I am seriously coveting this bunny centerpiece! I asked Bonnie where she found it and she said it came from a mail-order type store called Panache...a store that was similar to Horchow. Unfortunately, they are no longer in business.
Darling carrot, salad plates and note the leafy green chargers. Cute, cute napkin rings! :-) (Dinner plates are Lenox, Butler's Pantry; Salads and flatware glasses-TJ's; Carrot pitcher is Fitz & Floyd.)
The leafy chargers are perfect on this Easter table, too! (Pansies plates are Fitz & Floyd, as are the cute bunnies. Chargers & flatware are from Panache. Goblets were purchased at Mikasa Outlet.)
Wouldn't this be a great table for a wine tasting party?!
(Green grape salad plates were purchased at TJ Maxx, grape plates, flatware and glasses purchased at Marshall's.)
Such an elegant table with the tall white candles. I love the white grape dinner plates...exquisite!
Now, doesn't this 4th of July table make you want to stand up and say the Pledge of Allegiance! :-) Have you ever seen candlesticks like that? Amazing! (China is Warren Kimble "Colonial" by Sakura.)
Bonnie told me, "We have an academy awards dinner every year. I just set the coffee table with movie related things and made place cards with guests photo shopped onto pics of winners." I love this idea!
Now this is one glitzy, star-studded tablescape! (Salad plates are from Pottery Barn, Starry Night plates, from TJ Maxx, and crystal is "Gallia" from Macy's.)
We're going tropical! Love those palm tree wine glasses! (Salads are from TJ Maxx and glassware is from Marshall's.)
And, this evening, Bonnie was planning to dine at this very tablescape. Isn't it fabulous?
Beautiful plates and I love the mix of the green stemware...so much more interesting than having the tea glass exactly match the wine glass?
(China is Tracy Porter purchased at Marshall's, flatware is from Ross, artichoke candles are from HomeGoods, goblets from Kohl's, and wine glass and salad plates are from TJ Maxx.)
And how about a little inspiration for your fall tablescapes! I've never thought of incorporating a plum color in with the oranges, browns and yellows of fall...but isn't it wonderful?! :-)
(Leaf plates are from Harry & David which is headquartered in Oregon. Chargers are from Panache, dinner plates from TJ Maxx, flatware, Ross & bubble glass goblets are from Mervyn's.)
Bonnie, thank-you soooo much for sharing all these amazing and beautiful tablescapes! It has been such a joy to share them for this Tablescape Thursday!
Please be sure to leave Bonnie a comment letting her know how much you appreciate all the time and effort she spent forwarding these wonderful pics, as well as the detailed information about the elements that went into creating them. I've saved one of Bonnie's delightful fall tablescapes and some of her winter/Christmas tablescapes to share a little later...how's that for a tease. :-)
Looking forward to seeing your beautiful tablescapes!
