My First Tablescape Day...

I thought I would join in for a little FUN with the Tablescape Thursday girls... I just hope I don't get kicked out for using other people's tables... and some without dishes... like this lovely table... aah to sit in that comfy white chair and read a book... Anddddd... I don't know if paintings are against the rules... but the thought of daydreaming in this window seat was just toooooo irresistible... I had to paint it with a FUN tableclothed table...I didn't want to be without china, linens, glasses, etc... sooooo I've added this fancy dining table dressed for a lovely meal...
I loved the drama of this dining room with bright blue glasses... cake anyone...
Ooooh... I could not leave out painting a table to have a bright and FUN luncheon...I hope I did not break any rules of Tablescape Thursday ... I would sooooo hate to be kicked out on my first try! Speaking of Tablescape Thursday... pop over and see all the WONDERFUL tables people put together!

Wrapping Up the Week: Friday I will be asking for some much needed advice... and on PINK Saturday Dance of a Painted Lady is helping me put together a FAB trip to Sri Lanka... it will be the perfect place for all of us to ENJOY...get ready!

You did wonderful! Adding your paintings gives you extra points. I too like the pop of the blue glass in the one photo and your paintings make me want to pull up a chair.
I can't wait to see what you have in store for us on Friday. xoxo

Ohh these are great! No worries about the dishes - I never like to actually put out dishes on the table!

Beautiful introduction to your first tablescape. Love the drawings. That makes you extra talented. I pride myself on setting tables but please don't ask me to draw them or you will be sorely disappointed. Thanks for the inspiration.

Morning Fifi,
Love the photo with the white chair. Where on earth do you find these pictures? Never mind, if you tell me I'll spend all day looking at pictures instead of trying to get something done! (Smile)
