RING IN THE NEW YEAR TABLESCAPE

Although we didn’t stay awake to ring in 2013 at midnight, we did ring it in with our New Year’s Day dinner with all those good luck foods.

I am linking to Cuisine Kathleen for Let’s Dish Wednesdays and Between Naps on the Porch for Tablescape Thursday.  2013 just sounds weird!  I don’t know how long it will take me to get used to this change.  Wishing all of you blessings in the new year.  Please continue to pray for our grandson, Cooper.  Thank you. laurie

Just beautiful. I loved the candles, the little champage bottles in the buckets, and the olld father tmie ornament. How many dinner parties did you have over the holidays?

So lovely Laurie! Happy New Year! I agree 2013 looks and sounds weird :-) P.s. I liked your FB page too. I thought I already had! Lol.

Lord, help little Cooper's body to be strengthened and matured so he can thrive and be healthy. Encourage and comfort all who are caring for him...Amen.

An positively beautiful tablescape Laurie! Elegant and inspiring, I would love to sit at that table and talk to you live and in person!

Sarah said...

Beautiful table, Laurie. We had brunch at a friends' home so I didn't set a New Year's table. Glad to see you using your silver. ;-)
Happy New Year.......Sarah

Laurie, I love the Moonspun! A beautiful name too. The whole table is exciting.

I tried to respond by email to both your comments but only one was in my email. I had not heard of "ear worm" but that's one new term that does make sense to me. Thank you for your always encouraging words, both here and in your comments.

I too, continue to pray for Cooper to thrive and one wonderful day be able to visit his grandmother Laurie and eat at one of the wonderful grandchildren tables you fix especially for them.

Would you please add the name of baby Zachary to your prayer list? He is my nephew and awaiting results of tests so that they will know how best to help him. He is from a praying family and I gave Cooper's name to them weeks ago and I know they would appreciate having your readers pray for Zachary too.

Many thanks, my friend,
Dewena

Your first table of the new year is perfection Laurie!

I love Father Time.:-)

I am finding 2013 troublesome...it is like a tongue twister!

I thought of you when our predicted snow went to the boot heel. Did you get very much? We only had a dusting.

Our prayers continue!!

Marlis said...

Laurie, this table makes me want to do NYE all over again! Or even cook NYD meal again. I love your mother's dessert dishes. Using the champagnes is so classy. Fabulous centerpiece.. Father Time is just so much fun. Happiest of years to you! xo Marlis

Debbie said...

It's all just stunning to me! I love all the silver, especially those goblets. I've always wanted some.

It makes me want to actually throw a New Year's party. I never do that.

Happy New Year, Laurie!

Tardevil said...

Your table and dishes are stunning! I love Father Time, too. I hope your grandson is getting better each and every day!

I love your wedding china, Laurie. It's perfect any time! The use of silver just adds the right touch of sparkle for a new year. Happy 2013!!

Linda (More Fun Less Laundry) said...

Laurie, Your wedding china and all the sparkly elements make such a festive table! I think guests feel special when they see an effort made like this one! Just gorgeous! Happy New Year and I will pray for your grandson. Linda

Diann said...

Well Laurie, you definitely brought the New Year in with style! What a stunning table you set. Everything looks just so beautiful! I hope you are having a wonderful day! Hugs, Diann :)

So pretty and sparkley -- Praying for your sweet Cooper -- may God bless your family with healing. I started the New Year in bed with a bad cold.....things have to get better from there!
