Valentine Tablescape

Well, Good morning to all!

I've been away from the blog world for a month or more. We had a death in the family and a new grandbaby born. So needless to say "Thrifty Sissy" took a backseat. But today I want to share one of my favorite things to decorate. It's the kitchen table.

We all know the kitchen is the heart of the home and since our table is one the first things you see when you come in from the back porch or from the garage it gets centerstage for each season.

                                                     
                                      Welcome to our Valentine table.

The very first thing I did was to take an old cover. I really don't know what else to call it other than that. It's not a quilt or a tablecloth. But it is my favorite color, pink. So with that being the start I added the pink heart shaped beaded placemats followed with the silver chargers. Then topped that with the sweetie pie plates from Target. The matching glasses are filled with strings of confetti so they don't look so empty. Those white napkins with the little pink bow give some added fluff.

Then there is that fabulous red/pink/white stripe heart shaped platter under the candleholder filled with a red candle and confetti. Of course you need some green with all that pink so the little topiaries add some height to the table. I almost forget the little Valentine cat holding the red heart. That came from Home Goods last year when they had it on sale for $3.00. I also got those plaid "Be Mine" napkins from Home Goods too, only $2.00 on sale. This Thrifty Sissy loves a sale. LOL.

So there you have it we are all set for a girl's most special day of the year. I hope your Valentine's day is over the top. You don't have to wait until the 14th to celebrate it. You can enjoy it all month long with a cute tablescape.

Stay "Thrifty" and have a wonderful week.
