Good morning everyone!!! it's the 100th Tablescape Thursday over at Between Naps on the Porch. I want to thank Susan for being such a gracious hostess for this party week after week.
When I first started blogging, this was the first "party" I participated in. I told Susan that I didn't have a lot of sets of dishes to share..just bits and pieces that I've collected over time. She said not to worry, and to share whatever I wanted.
There are so many wonderful people here in blogland. Everyone has been so encouraging. You get to see tablescapes that are grand and glorious, sweet and refreshing, comfortable and cozy, and everything in between.
Jane, from Blondie's Journal introduced me to this event quite a while ago. Since then, I've met lots of other precious people...thank you Jane!
So....for today, I'm sharing my Habsburg China teacups from Austria, and the delicate little rose dish from Germany that has been used for everything from holding soaps, to butter.
I hope you enjoy all of the tablescapes shared today for the 100th party.
Congratulations Susan!
I am also sharing with Show and Tell Friday over at Cindy's My Romantic Home. You have to visit her blog! It's one of the most beautiful ones I've ever seen. Thank you Cindy for hosting this fun event.
Hugs to all,
Debbie
Beautiful, Debbie! Like a little piece of who you are that you share with all of us. I agree-you don't have to have a big full tablesetting to get make a tablescape. Your own is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteBTW-There is an award waiting for you over at my Blog. Maybe you can pick it up when you get a chance. Blessings- Diana

I agree - one of the things I like most about TT is the diversity of it all. There are so many different styles. I am finding myself drawn to so much more than my typical simple style. It is fun. These dishes are so sweet. I really like the way you displayed them - on that pretty tray with the book pages.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet arrangement !
ReplyDeleteFirst time to your blog I really enjoyed the posts.
I smiled when I saw your enamel ware, I too have quite the collection, I should do a post on it all one day,I have some really ancient pieces.
