Mary, your incredible photos and creations inspire us! Such talent and eye for beauty is amazing. I also thank you for not cluttering up your web pages with the level of ads some other bloggers allow–very distracting. j
Every table is a delight and it is so hard to pick a favorite. I have been a subscriber for a long time, so it is fun to re-visit the lovely tablescapes and imagine sitting down to dine in such a festive setting. I must admit, as a former resident of LKN, I would pick a party on the pontoon first!
Every table is so inviting and inspiring … I love your inspirations and you seem to put so much love and part of yourself into each one and in your potting shed…I always look forward to seeing what you have to share with us
Thank you for putting together this wonderful Christmas eye-candy for all of us to enjoy here at the beginning of the season. You give me such inspiration to get going and create Christmas tables for parties and family.
Mary, what a delightful gift you have given us! Thank you! At our leisure we can go back to each lovely post and drool and sigh over the beauty before us. I love all of your Fitz and Floyd, their pieces are special. Thank you for your hard work and all the inspiration that you continually present. It is awesome!
Loved this post!
Mary, what stunning tables and centerpieces! I love all the ideas and inspiration. Looking forward to blog hopping with you next week!
Where do you store everything??? I am amazed. I also love Home Goods and need the 12 step program!
Such a fabulous compilation of past tables — absolutely wonderful!! All worthy of a second look.
Wow…this is so inspiring just beautiful thanks for a creative mind that takes us away during our business schedules to a place that is peaceful and pleasing to the eye.
Thank you for the beauty and inspiration! Your artistic creations have me joyously skipping through the day. So many ideas I can light upon to make my home & garden cozy and loved. How do I say Thank You for sharing what you do so well?
Thank you for your sweet comment Carol! It made my day ❤️
Looking forward to the new Christmas Tablescape Blog Hop. Your previous tables each delight and enchant, but I know you will have yet more in store for your readers. I’m still decking the halls here, and hope to plan my table soon. I will host a small dinner party for girlfriends, and perhaps host Christmas Eve here again this year.
I love this time of year and am eager to finish the decorating so I can sit back and take in the beauty and joy of it all.
Thanks for the thoughtful comments on my Traveling Tote post today. It is such a fun group of women!
Merry, Merry!
PS
Did you see the cute tartan dog vest, collar, leash, and dog bowl that Talbots has this year? I had to get Sadie one of the vests and the bowl. 😊
Enjoyed this post on tablescapes. I also perused your pinterest pages. The tortillini wreath caught my attention . Would you share your favorite marinara sauce?
Hi Eloise, We like Rao’s Homemade Marinara Sauce
Ha-ha, looking forward to the Santa Mobile Mary! Everything is so pretty, love all of the plaid and I see one favorite pic:@) Have a great weekend!
Love all the Tablescapes, especially the ones with plaid!!! Excited for December 4th post!!!! Happy Merry weekend! 🎄
Great timing Mary, I have spent most of the day reacquainting myself with my holiday things, and mostly trying to locate it from where I stashed it last year! I have no idea what I’m going to do for the hop next week, and inspiration is sorely needed. I almost caved and went to HG today but I am on a strict dish diet! Your Santamobile looks like it is going to be a show stopper! I’m torn between going old fashioned, traditional, trendy or elegant, so right now it’s just a hot mess in my head! Looking forward to next week~
Jenna
Mary, all your table settings are a delight and I so enjoyed revisiting every one! You always come up with such beautiful ideas…many of which I’ve copied for our own parties. Happy holidays!
As with all your posts, there’s much to like and a wonderful source of inspiration.
BEST in show – ALWAYS!
I always think to myself…who needs magazines for inspiration, when we have Mary!! Thank you! xxoo
Just BEAUTIFUL IDEAS !!!
Thanks Mary for so many beautiful and inspiring table designs and centerpieces. You have definitely given me great ideas for planning our “Home Alone” Christmas celebration. We will have four or five tables to set and decorate, can’t wait to try the evergreen runner on the breakfast room table. Love all your beautiful Christmas China but must ask where on earth do you store it all? Every time I see your beautiful table settings it makes me want to make a trip to Replacements.
Thank you for the sharing all the beautiful past and present tablescapes…With me just joining a few months ago I am really enjoying the archives
Hi Norma, I sent you an email this morning. Please check your spam folder if you didn’t receive it!
Bonjour, vos photos sont très belles….et vos tables encore davantage !!!! Je suis en admiration devant votre vaisselle…Il n’y a pas de si jolies choses en France ! Quel dommage ..Merci de me faire rêver.
Catherine
They are all very beautiful and festive.
Everything is my favorite!
