Style Over-Easy!

My goodness, it has been a long time since I posted! But, I am back and had such fun with this tablescape. Now that the holidays are behind us, it's anything goes! My black kitchen table and chairs (which you can see here) now live with my daughter. The new set is very similar but can open to become a square!

Now, let's see if we can figure out which came first--the chicken or the egg!



This tablescape started with the bowls, which came from Ross. I've had them for months but just couldn't figure out what to do with them.



Right before Christmas, I found the matching plates on Target's website! And, they were on clearance!






I bought the tray at the same time as the bowls. Unfortunately, I hit the bag against the doorway as I was bringing it into the house, and now there's a chip on the edge (lower right).



I bought these glasses at my favorite Goodwill.
I think the design is fun, and felt they were perfect
for my "fun" tablescape!







 












I love the shape of this chicken! She kind of reminds
me of what I looked like after Thanksgiving dinner!



The tablecloth from Ross really pulled this table together.




Straw placemats and napkins came from World Market.










Salt & pepper shakers and butter dish
were purchased months apart!




One last shot of the crazy chicken!





 No chickens or eggs were harmed during
the creation of this tablescape!



My cat, Eddie, spends tablescape time closed up in my office. Isabel likes to watch me at work, but there was no sign of her. I thought she had finally gotten bored with it all,
until I lifted the tablecloth.


I will be joining Tablescape Thursday

YA-YA's Dinner!

My girlfriends and I meet once a month for dinner. Most of the time we meet out someplace, but for Christmas, we meet at Sandi's house. She was nice enough to allow me to take photos and post them on my blog. I hope you enjoy!
























This is the coolest Santa I have ever seen.






















I will be joining Susan at Between Naps On The Porch!
