September is also the month of the Home Show, with the tablescaping contest. Interior designers decorate tables, which not only gives them publicity, but the opportunity to win some cash. Hope you like the tables!
The first table was designed by David Allan Ballas, Interior Design.
Gorgeous china and take a look at that tureen!!
Beautiful!
Using crystal candleholders of various heights, he filled the cups with fruit. One candleholder had a crystal dish on top filled with fruit. I may steal borrow this idea!
To complete the "room" decoration, he used a petite-sized hutch/secretary, which I really wanted to bring home, and an adorable chair. Much attention was paid to every detail.
On to the next table!!
This table was designed by Melanie Palma Designs. The centerpiece is very clever, with a pumpkin arrangement on top of a tall candlestick.
Place setting is so perfect for fall, with the black charger and the very cool flatware.
I loved how the flatware had a similar design as the chairs.
The designers even used rugs in their showcase.
Cute pillows in every chair.
A vignette showcasing adorable stems.
More tables to come! Stay tuned! Thanks for visiting with me, hope to "chat" with you very soon! Don't give up on me yet! I am always so grateful for your kind comments!
These are so beautiful!! I really want to start table scaping again. It's so fun, and these are so inspiring.
ReplyDeleteLove to see these! Looking forward to more.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy helping your daughter with her new place. What fun for both of you!
Wow! I bet you had a lot of fun! I have never seen trout dishes look so elegant! I am more drawn to the black one, just because I love anything dramatic. I can't wait to see what you do with the ideas you "borrowed"!
ReplyDeleteI think one of your tablescapes would have been an excellent addition. xo
ReplyDeleteI loved the fish on the dish! Come check out a Ruby Bridges tablescape!
ReplyDeleteThanks for showing these gorgeous tables. I am not a tablescaper but enjoy seeing such creativity. I like to get ideas for setting my own table on a much smaller scale.----------Shannon
ReplyDeleteThe table by David Allan Ballas is so luscious and I am dying for those plates. So glamourous and what a wonderful event!
ReplyDeleteBoth tables are beautiful, but the Ballas table is outstanding!

That's cool that they have this feature at your town's Home Show. Ours doesn't. I think I may need to speak with the powers that be and suggest that they add this. I think it would be a big draw once the idea catches on. Thanks for putting the idea in my pea brain! :-) Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThose were great! Those fish plates are beautiful. I like the mix of dishes on the one with the tall blue candlestick. The flatware was really neat, it has the look of hand forged metal. That must be fun to attend!
ReplyDeleteHave fun with your daughters move. I'm about to do this too with mine. Her stuff is in our garage right now and I am anxious to deliver it to her apartment!
Truly elegant tablescapes. The goblets with the gold swirls remind me of the champagne flutes that I painted to serve Mimosas, etc. Thank you taking us along to see the designers work. Cherry Kay
