Leaves and Pears Tablescape............Playing Just for you and me!

Happy Tuesday Sweet Friends,

So how are ya??  Doing well, I hope!

I am happy to say I am feeling much
better.  Got our christmas tree down
over the weekend,  but still have our
Christmas decorations up, we have
a counseling session tonight, so just
decided to wait until Thursday, so
that is the plan, Lord Willing!

Since we haven't had a lot going on
around here, creatively speaking.......
I decided week before last to do 
some playing.................

and it all began with this decorative

goody tower we received as a 

 Christmas gift. 

Now if you have followed me for a

 while you know that I totally appreciate

beautiful packaging and the creativity

 of the designer.........so thought this

 was just too pretty not to do 

something fun with it........

and

 you also know, how I love a challenge

 of making  something lovely with just 

items I found around the house..........

So knew I had a lot of faux pears and

thought that would work.....If you take

a close look at some of the boxes you

will see they have Pears on them.

I also love doing theme tables, so noticed

 the boxes also had leaves, so thought of 

these  melamine plates I had hanging

on the wall........and wondered if they

would work, and decided yes,  then 

thought about the green place mats, so

pulled those babies out.  Had blue and

white napkins but decided the white

looked the best since I was using

the new white cake plate (Dee gave

me ) and a white flower.

Then plopped a pear candle on top

of each napkin and plate....

This brown tray of pear candles was a 

gift from my son years ago..... and I

 have always loved it.....but it was

 up on a high Bistro shelf that he also 

made for me......so had to get hubby

 to get the ladder out for me, and I got 

them down, and did a lil spring 

cleaning on the shelf while I was at it.....

always good to get 2 birds with one stone,

 I always say!  lol

Loved how it tied the brown all together.

Just made it a table for 3 since I only

 had 3 plates, actually it turned out there 

was 4,  but too late by the time I 

discovered that, cause I had already

finished the centerpiece.

These were  just 3 faux pears I had,

  2 plastic 1 wooden..........

I liked that they were different colors

as it picked up practically all the 

green colors I was using.

Just spread the pears out on the tray so I 

could use a pear candle on each plate.

Then the touch of blue in the plates and  

on the vase and a few boxes were sort 

of all in the same color family just

 different shades.        

Also mixed the silverware between

2 different sets.  

              

The pear candles were 2 different shades

 of green as well.

Borrowed the vase and flower from the

 guest bedroom.

Next 3 pics are overviews

A view from the back side of the table.

Next 4 pictures are with the lights out.

Love the beauty and ambiance with the 

lights out.

Decided to use simple clear

glass goblets to keep with

a casual look...............

Hope you enjoyed it as much as I 

did creating it........it was a fun

project done just for you !

So you can pretend you were

one of the dinner guest!!   lol

Sorry there were so many pictures,

but just easier to use them all

that to have to choose which

ones to use.

Thanks for coming by......

Hope you have a great rest of the week, 

and

 keep your light shining brightly.............

Love,  Hugs,  and

Yummy Pear Blessings,

Nellie
