I'm hosting my six grandchildren and their parents for an "I Love You" snack supper.
They can grab a heart-shaped plate and serve themselves.
I'll put heart-shaped chicken salad sandwiches on the plate and nuts in the heart-shaped bowl.
I found the Planter's Peanut man spoon at a flea market one time.
The vintage, polka dot bowl will serve shrimp dip/spread, a family favorite. I'll put crackers and chips on the charger under the bowl.
There will be a Lemon Pound Cake on this plate, so the cake forks are waiting in a nearby red glass that belonged to my grandmother.
There will be wine for the adults and soft drinks for the grandchildren.
Several years ago, I found these handkerchiefs at a going-out-of-business sale at a gift store. I'm using them for napkins. I ordered the lace napkin sleeves from the Polka Dot Closet Etsy about three years ago.
For the centerpiece, I hung ornaments on a pink aluminum tree.
Votive candle holders remind us that "Love warms the heart".
It warms my heart when you stop by for a visit at BDw/L. Thank you.
I'm partying with Tablescape Thursday at Between Naps on the Porch.

Your family is so very lucky to have someone like you! You make every holiday fun for everyone. Love your table and pink tree!
This post just made me happy. The effort was done out of love and the items used were meaningful and special. In a blog world of bigger is better and home décor posts with NO heart, this was refreshing! I think I will do something like this for my grandbabies and parents too :) Angela
It all looks beautiful.
You do such lovely things for your family and I know that they adore you. What an inspiration you are.

Happy Valentines Day
Your table is beautiful. Especially the tree.
Laurie, your table looks a like fun time, and your decorations are festive and happy. I too, remember the little trips I have made to find those little things. I think that adds a touch of yourself in all things.
