Table runner is here...


After going shopping all day on Saturday, I come home and find a big package sitting on the dining table.. I knew exactly who that was from!
JUDY!
In celebration of her 100th post she had a sweet give away
and guess who won?
That would be 
ME!

After arranging my bowl of apples on my new table runner, I had a thought...
This is way to pretty for just a bowl of apples to be sitting on top of it, so I get in my car 
and head for the supermarket in search for some pretty flowers
and 
I find these pretty
Carnations.


I got so excited that I broke some flowers off.


Love the tassel!


This table runner got me
Thinking...
Why don't I have more
Table runners?

I a see a future project coming!!
my head is spinning out of 
control with all these
crazy ideas..

Fabrics
Tassels
Wait, that would require sewing...

Me?

Oh, Judy
look what you started...

I did not sleep all night!


And as a BONUS she gave away this sweet vintage silver ladle.. I looked all around my kitchen for a perfect home, and then I found it!... On my mossy pot twig swag  that sits on my bakers rack...I think it blends in very well!
Thank you, so much Judy!

  7. I was so pleased when Judy announced that you were the winner! What a perfect month to receive the pretty thing. I tend to forget about runners too but your table always looks dressed with one and tablecloths get messy so quickly. Love the silver ladle too!

  8. Such a nice give away! By the way - love your recipe from your last post. Yes, growing up in San Antonio TX you could say we had many of those kinds of meals.

    Oh, hopefully in about a week I'll have a give away - maybe you can win again!

    Your tablescape is charming; it made me smile. I would call this work of art 'Carnation Inspiration'!
