Since I only have six of the heart-shaped plates (from Target several years ago), I used these patterned plates for the the place setting on each end of the table (can’t recall where I got these).
A clear, glass plate tops a Valentine paper dessert plate, which tops a paper heart doily, which tops a white metal charger!
The keys to my heart are napkin holders (napkin rings from a going out of business sale at a gift store years ago; linens from an estate sale a couple of years ago).
I chose to use this flatware, because the pattern name is “Eternally Yours”.
I couldn’t get a good picture of the flower cart on my vintage glasses (from an estate sale years ago), so I put a piece of white paper inside this glass for the photo.
Scottie dogs are serving the salt and pepper.
I’m not even going to tell you how many times I copied the front and back of this Valentine card, attempting to get them right-side-up on both sides, so they would show the front and the back from each side of the table.
These are the dollar store ornaments that just keep on giving. I had them on the backs of my chairs for Christmas Eve dinner. I intended to tell everyone to take one home, but I completely forgot. (I really did forget. I wasn’t even thinking about using these for Valentine’s Day décor.)
But since I still had them, I flipped them over and hung them back onto the chairs for this Valentine’s table.
Thank you so much for visiting my heartfelt post. Laurie

Oh Laurie, you are so good at all of your tablescapes, and you have all the perfect dishes and accessories to make everything look fabulous. Great post and such a wonderful tablescape. Hugs, Marty
I enjoyed your blog today! Loved the faux crafting post as well. I need to get back to table setting. Loved yours!
Blessings,
Ava
Laurie, your table is ready for the party! Fun to see all your "heartfelt" details on this table. Eternally Yours flatware was the first set of flatware I ever owned. I bought it with money that someone gave me for high school graduation. I've since passed it along to my niece. Pretty pattern. ;-)
Looking forward to your party! ~ Sarah
You did good decorating the table and the title. :D You must have an unlimited supply of decorations/accessories for every holiday.
Hope you had a nice weekend.
I loved the title, and clearly we think alike because I guessed immediately that I was going to see hearts and felt. Too cute!
I just love this festive table, especially the key themed napkin rings. That was my very favorite part. I'm glad your forgot to tell folks to take the hearts home. They are perfect for this table.
It's all so very LAURIE. It makes me smile.
Beautiful,and so very HAPPY,Laurie! I love the little details--and can TOTALLY relate to the copying-both-sides problem. :)
Here's to happy hearts on a Monday!

Cute! I love the keys as napkin rings..yep...copy catting that idea!
WOW..what a sweet romantic table setting. Ilove those heart plates. I dont decorate my table except for Thanksgiving and Easter. I host the dinner those two holidays and go to my sisters for Christmas, Fourth Of July. My sister and I go to a tea party the other holidays so we get to use all the pretty dishes/tea cups and stuff. What will you be serving?
(sure, now bloggers want a menu to go along with the table setting, what next?)hahaha!!
What a delightful table you set. So perfect for Valentine's Day. Love the Scotties on your table!
I have to admit I basically have nothing for V-day.
I super love your table Laurie!
I want those glittery target plates and the hearts are so darn cute!
This may be one of the most charming valentines table ever!
I got to get my thinking cap on cause right now I am coming up blank for valentines day.
Thanks for the inspiration!
Hugs,
Cindy

Laurie, You table is gorgeous! I love every element. The linens are to die for and I love the napkin rings. I am trying to think how I recreate them.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful table.
I am grabbing your Valentine Party button for my sidebar, so I won't forget.
Blessings, Ginger
A newbie here from Ohio fond you on pinterest love your table setting is just beautiful!
Hi Laurie!
A girandole is just the French term for a candelabra (Usually with crystals or prisms) Antique dealers often use this term I can't get enough of em! *winks* Vanna
Talk about Valentine inspiration. Your table is gorgeous of course, you always set the most magnificent tables. I see your Valentine party invitation. I am glad that I stopped by to find out.
Happy Thursday,
Karen
