Happy Valentine's Day

Once again it's Tablescape Thursday sponsored by Susan at BETWEEN NAPS ON THE PORCH!

Thanks Susan for hosting Tablescape Thursday every week!

My dining room table is still Waltzing with Snowflakes (click if you missed it last week), so I am recycling some Valentine's Day table pictures from year's past!

My china is Spode Pink Tower. That's what I consider our everyday china. I got it for our 20th Anniversary. I think it matches my dining room perfectly. The goblets with the gold and silver Greek key design were a gift from my daughters and they got them from TJ Maxx. The red wine hocks were from Ross-Simons years ago.

Here is my Parlor mantle in a Valentine's Day mood also seen above:

The Valentine's Day Chintz vases are from Ross.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

    Beautiful, beautiful stemware! And, of course, I LOVE your Spode! I still like to use beautiful china for "everyday" dishes, too. It just makes the Cocoa Puffs taste a little bit better! :-)

    We're so blessed to have the Pink Tower...I love how you've spiced it up with the silver chargers. The crystal makes it extra special, too. I adore the frolicking cherubs on the mantel. Thank you for sharing your lovely design. Cherry Kay

Thank you so much for all your comments! I really do treasure them all. If I don't respond to all of them immediately, it is because I work full time and share a computer at home. Thanks again!!!
