Let It Snow...Tablescape

15 years ago

At last we have a chance of snow in our forcast, so here is my tablescape with that in mind. I only used things that I already had and tried to keep it from looking to Christmasy. The pattern of the milk glass bowl and platter kind of mimic snowflakes, in my mind anyway. I've had the snowball candles forever. My favorite thing is the snowball/pompom garland. I got it at the DS this year and I had it strung along the tops of my kitchen cabinets, but I didn't get any pix. The white on white was my first china, I have a whole set of the blue(salad plate) dishes, from France, the swirl glasses are from Mexico, and I have the stems in green and blue(Stien-mart, years ago). The milk glass is from my collection of Doric(the swan has a nest she usually sits on). DH has watched the weather channel for 2 days straight, like it will help us get the snow.

Frou. this is a wonderful snow table. Hope you end up with some. I would gladly send some your way if I could. It's cold here with wind today.

Your stems (wow and gr ones too), candle holders with sb candles and others dishes are all beautiful. The swan looks lovely sitting in her new nest on your milk glass. Love the lt blue snowflake tc with your blue dishes and pretty snowflakes on this table.

Snoball lights are cute and go so well. You knew what you wanted and your table is delightful.

Frou. The weather outside is Frightful! But your table is so Delightful! Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!! [If that's what you want]...From the snow flake table cloth to the chair covers, you didn't miss anything. The stems are marvelous. I love the flatware. Everything is just right for a bright COLD winter's day.

Boy, frou, there's just nothing like cobalt blue & white milkglass tog! That centerpc is just so striking! I love the open weave underplate, then your blue plate & then that lovely open weave bowl...just love, love the swan!

Your placesettings against that soft blue t'cloth look so pretty!...adding the snowflakes sure gives the settings a nice touch & also the flatware you used works well!

Your snowball garland is so "whimsical"...& this table fits you, frou! TFS! Jeanne S. (I hope you get a dusting of snow at the very least!)

Frou, it is snowing here as I type, just softly falling at the moment. I have the fireplace on, and your table would be just perfect here. It all goes together so wonderfully and is just right for a winter wonderland theme.
I have some of the snowball candles but mine are much larger and wouldn't look nearly as nice as yours. I agree with the others that your stemware is TDF.

Fabulous job.
TFS,

That milk glass swan is beautiful. You really put everything together nicely. Those goblets are so pretty, too.

What a lovely winter table, Frou. I really love your milkglass pieces. And you already know what a fan of cobalt I am.
The swirled blue glasses sure are pretty. Everything is tho. The snowball garland is a cute addition too.

The table is wonderful. Most of all, I like the shade of blue in the glassware. The swirl glasses and the stems are so pretty.

The lacy look to the milk glass is down right gorgeous. My mother had a small collection of milk glass, but nothing so beautiful as you have.

Like those snowball candles too!

Frou..what a lovely - lovely table.
That milkglass centerpiece it's just so pretty.
Your snowflake tablecloth is just perfect with your place settings (so striking)..and I love the added snowflake for each. I think the glassware and their color is just beautiful too.
What a clever way to 'swirl' the snowball/pom-pom garland around the table...it's such a lovely touch.
We got tons of snow here the other day and more is on it's way... Shall I fill up the bus?

Jane, it looks like you won't have to fill up the bus, we got our snow. We had 3 1/2 inches which is a lot for us. I took a pic looking in the window by my table, from the outside in for a change. Also, you think maybe I should have brought in the flamingos?

Those snow covered flamingos made me laugh. They are sure not used to that, huh? Your table is so pretty, you have the prettiest collection of glass dishes. Love how you used those pretty snowflakes, and your pom garland really does look like little snowballs. Very pretty table, great job on it Frou.

Frou,

What a frosty tablesetting! It looks so crisp and clean, just like new snow. The swan is beautiful and your blue glassware is stunning. You really put it together.

And the weather obliged with that beautiful snow (We rarely get that much, so I'm jealous).

Oh, frou...your green glass totems & such really look lovely in the fluffy snow! Sitting at your beautiful table certainly would fit the bill, now! Glad you got your "snow fix" & that jane didn't have to fill up the bus! LOL! Your gardens look lovely!
