Tablescape Thursday - 2010 review

As the year ends -- I thought I would do a "Tabletop Review" for Tablescape Thursday. I've had so much fun celebrating with you throughout the year....and being invited to your celebrations as well. So let's glance back through 2010 before we say good-bye and ring in a brand new year.....shall we?



Happy New Year! This January 1st table was so busy that I just picked the centerpiece picture of Father Time and Baby New Year. It's always fun to start a fresh new year and 2010 does hold some special moments and sweet memories for me.



My February reds were on the table for Chinese New Year....it fell on Valentine's Day this year....had a hard time picking, but went with this one just because it was a little more unusual.



I built a little Irish village on the table during March for St. Patrick's Day.



Peter Cottontail was the special April guest front and center for Easter.



May brought pretty flowers and Mother's Day.



A fun foxhunt (the fox got away) for June's Father's Day.


The Fourth of July was an old fashioned table.



How about a beach vacation look for August?



Fall colors began to appear for my September table.



A pre-Trick or Treat table for Halloween in October with the grands.



November had us counting our many blessings for Thanksgiving.



Christmas table by the tree for December.

I hope your 2010 was full of fun gatherings around your tables...special moments with loved ones and friends. Wishing you the happiest of New Year blessings for 2011 and looking forward to joining you at the table over at "Between Naps On The Porch" with our ever gracious hostess, Susan.

See ya!

  2. Martha, May you have a delightful Holiday Week and a fantastic 2011.

    This was so much fun for me to see each of your tablescapes from the year. Thank you for sharing.

    Martha, They are all so nice. You did a great job at this.
    Will look forward to your 2011 tablescapes.

    I seem to create them in my mind and then life gets in the way and I don't get my act together to actually physically do one. Hoping in 2011 that I can do at least one.

    God bless,
    d
