#1 Pink Tea Table
#1 Pink Tea Table
My Cherub. I use him in my catering for fruit & plants.
This is my favorite shot. Aren't those dimples adorable.
White plate from Old Time Pottery (1.29 each)
Pink plate from Michael's (cheap too about 1.00 each)
This silver-plate condiments server was a "give" from a neighbor who owns a little shop in town call "The Vintage Flea" (You should really check it out)
This view is shown with a different dinner plate. Found at a flea market.
Tea pot found at the same flea market.
One of my many rabbits- I just love rabbits & birds.
This setting is shown with glassware that I found this week at a local shop that my friend Angela has been talking up lately. It's called "What's In Store". Isn't that a great name. The glasses were 14.00 for 6. It was more than I would usually spend, but I love them.
Now would you like to have a Valentine Tea with me?
#2 A Valentine Table for Two.
I'll be serving a sauteed Radicchio salad with toasted pecans, fresh peaches a homemade balsamic and herb vinegar dressing.
We'll have our drinks in this beautiful antique Talisman Crystal stemware by Hawkes.
Our main course of Fettuccine pasta with a creamy sauce of herb-boursin, marinated artichokes and sauteed shrimp will be served here on my Spring looking china (Taihei Fine China). I bought a ten piece place-setting week after week at Kroger about 25 years ago. I still have enough, remaining unbroken, to seat only 7. I lost some in a move- ouch!
This is an up close look at my lovely new table cloth also found at "What's in Store" . I can't believe Angela missed this one. It's all cotton, in mint condition and was only $18.99! I don't know if it's old, but it certainly has the appeal of an old piece.
My love birds
Soft and Romantic
I chose Tulips for this table instead of Roses, it just seemed more like a Tulip kind of table.
The famous Target S&P shakers.
Who knew so many people would love them?
And lastly, I'll serve my Love a Vanilla Custard with Strawberry-Amaretto whipped cream topping and Fresh Strawberries in this new find. Found also at "What's in Store" Cheap- 6 for $8.99.

I love your pink tablescape!!So many pretty things! It is just lovely!..
And the table for two is delightful.
The glassware is fantastic..
The plate/ place-settings in pink are so adorable, the little angel is fantastic too- it resembles a little birdbath I have, though one that isn't nearly as a pretty :/
Great little sequence you put together!
Ciao~
Both tables are so beautiful and elegant. Thanks for sharing.
Love your table settings! Have a great Valentines Day! Peggy (OH)
Both tablescapes are beautiful. I love your cherub and the green flowers and leaves really set off the pink accents. You have an eye for good design, whether antique or bargain.
Your Valentine menu sounds really good. I'd love to have a set of those pretty footed compotes you found at What's in Store.
Just beautiful...so much to look at and it's all lovely!!!
Not just one table, but two beautiful tables for Valentine's Day. Both are just wonderful. The pink table is so romantic and has a very old world feel. And the white soft table for two is lovely and intimate. You have many beautiful treasures and have shared them in a lovely way.

Beautiful pictures!! I love bunnies and birds too. Your menu sounds sooo yummy! I'd love to come over for tea! :)
~~ Happy Valentine's Day! ~~

Clearly, I am going to have to stop revealing the names of my favorite local stores. (NOTE TO SELF: HOW DID I MISS THAT WONDERFUL TABLECLOTH???) But I do love what you've done with your new finds, so pretty and feminine, so I think you were supposed to have them instead of me! Beautiful post!
P.S. I am home now and enjoying the beautiful snow, but before I came home, I followed a friend's advice to stop by T.J. Maxx where they have Royal Albert teapots in the 1940s Chintz pattern for just $19.99! They are beautiful if you happen to need another teapot for a great price!( I got one and there is still one left if you're interested.)
Darling, wishing you a lovely weekend and a love filled Valentine’s Day.
Love & Hugs
