taking a break



I'm taking a break from painting my little tattered chair and I thought I would share with you my Valentine's table.  Mr. Vintage and I are celebrating this evening...


Aren't these just the most beautiful tulips?



I like to use mismatched dishes...



I found some of this premixed dark chocolate  martini....Yum

 

Mr. Vintage came in and told me the table looked very pretty ~ sigh ~ He's the best ~





Happy Valentine's Day, Mr. Vintage ;-)


What are you doing for Valentine's Day?

I can't wait to hear ;-)

(((Hugs)))

  2. Your table is charming, I especially like the little hankerchief? in the center. So pretty!

    My husband and I are going out to dinner tonight at one of our favorite restaurants. Then, tomorrow I'll make an Italian dinner for us and and our kids and my aunt. I love Valentine's Day,and will decorate the table and make a gooey chocolate cake for dessert!

  5. I love mis matched china, too!! Your table setting is so pretty and romantic. Love the little hanky "doily" in the center.
    We're going for a nice long drive tomorrow and have a picnic by a river. The weather is supposed to be beautiful and warm (as in not freezing LOL!)
