We have an Oscar night dinner each year. I’m sure I’m the only person in Blogville who would think about posting a table like this one for Tablescape Thursday! I’ve mixed the bling of Oscar night with the cheesy tackiness of movie theatre concession items. But, regardless of the decor, for one night, we are all stars!
Table cover} red felt to suggest the red carpet (but please don’t walk on my table!) Paper plates with theatre-related stickers topped by glass plates, and depression glass soup bowls. Plastic hot dog holders with sunglasses (in case you forgot yours). Plastic stemware (but they do have that gold ball in the stem)! Bling in case you forgot yours. Half of an Oscar} A gift from my friend, Susie (maybe if my acting skills were better, I would have received a full Oscar)! “Film Reels”} When I purchased Christmas lights one time, they were wrapped on these round plastic things that I thought looked like film reels.
I’d like to thank my producer, my director, my husband, and my children, for standing behind me as I pursue my acting career, and I especially want to thank each of you so much for coming to visit my blog. Watch out for the paparazzi when you head over to Happy To Design and The Tablescaper for links to wonderful Blogville posts. laurie
