Birthday Table for my Daughter DeeAnna's 29th Birthday!

Happy Tuesday Morning to you

Sweet Friends,

Hope this finds you feeling well 

and full of vim and vigor............

I am feeling so much better today.....

Yesterday I felt like I was getting a relapse, so was

not to thrilled about that but today I do feel like I have

 some vim and vigor.......which is very exciting to me!!!

We had a great weekend......went to Dee and Jerry's

on Friday  then Sat. we  were just getting ready for

her birthday celebration most of the day,  other than

the 3 hr. nap we took in the afternoon,  which made

me stay awake all night long...........lol (the reason 

for my relapse on Monday, I think)

Then Sunday was church and  her birthday celebration 

so the whole family was here,  and we had a great

 time and some good eating........

So thought I would show you her birthday table today.

Since I was sick and couldn't get out,  this was a 
do with what you have on hand table.  Hoping to
 get some white carnations if hubby and I could

locate them.

I try to find a theme if possible that the person

likes, color scheme or whatever.  I know that

Dee has said lately she likes topiaries,  so

thought okay what can I do with that.  So put

one in a pretty white planter and did a sign

on printmaster to hang on it.  She also loves
this shade of green too.

Then I remembered I had these 2 lil  green urns

I bought several years ago at Old Time Pottery for

$2 each,  then stuck a yankee candle lid (repur-

posed as a candleholder) inside them to use

them as candles for the table.

See the empty egg cups.....I was gonna put a

white carnation in each one for the girls.

This was a girl place setting.  I remembered that I had 

played around with some napkins some time back and 

made lil clutch bags but had never used the idea yet,  

so decided to do that..........then I found these adorable

lil plastic shoes in my china hutch drawer....I had gotten

3 of them at someones wedding reception, so that made

me really excited cause a purse and shoes,  what girl

doesn't like that.................and it look like a glass slipper,

so Cinderella comes to mind.............

Then decided I should use these silver banded dessert

plates, for salad plates,  to add a lil bling.  So coming

along fine,  had the table mostly set,  but still looking

for white carnations.........

 Then Sat. we had to go to Publix to get food items

so they have a fairly nice floral shop so looked

there and they didn't have white carnations either, 

 but they did have green mini carnations in the

 perfect shade of green.  The Lord always helps,

and the green probably looked better than the

white anyway................

This pic was taken the morning after with the 

lights out,  just thought it was a neat picture.  lol

So this is the birthday girls place,  I decided to put her

flowers in a silver punch cup and then gave all the girls

 goblets and the guys reg glasses.

Looking down the table from the end,  our special

person always gets to sit at the head of the table.

Just another way of honoring them on their

special day.....................

Now did you notice that the lil green urns are not

being used for candles now..........I did lil florals

with the green carnations.  Looks so much

better..............

These were the guys place settings.  Made some ties 

for them,  and put candles at their place setting. 

Also got the andes mints for the candy of the day!!  lol

I sort of wishes I had not put the candy in the shoes cause

the shoes were so much prettier without it,  but oh well!!

Live and Learn.........that is why taking pics is a good thing,

you learn from them..................lol

 Only had 3 shoes,  so gave my SIL Susan the swam since
 she loves animals so..................

 A look from the other end of the table.

A over view

 Overview with posterized affect.

 Liked how the candles and the egg cup with 
the flower lined up so nicely.   lol

Sorry about all the pictures I always take
so many cause some don't come out, then
it is very hard to decide which ones to post,
and I always have too many.
But hope you enjoyed them anyway!!  lol

Thanks so much for dropping in,  always
great to hear from you.


Hope you have a Totally Terrific Day!
