Tonight I am combining Tablescape Thursday hosted by dear Susan at Between Naps on the Porch , and joining Jenny Matlock for the letter F on her Alphabet Thursday..a FIRST for me.
So I start with F for FABRIC….
I used this pretty eyelet fabric with a FLIRTY trim for my tablecloth…
Next is FABRIC FUN shaped place mats..
F is for light FIXTURE when I hung shamrocks and FINE ribbon..
F F for FRESH FLOWERS that I put in a shamrock vase..
For FUN meet Finnegan….you know, he had whiskers on his chin agin..:) Come on..sing along…I know a man named Michael Finnegan…….You know you know it! :)
And pretty shamrock pitcher..
And F is for FAILTE, which is what I want to do to all of you who visit!
FAREWELL, and fanks, I mean , thanks for coming…
See you for FOODIE FRIDAY..hey Jenny, I hope I passed!
Please mark Mar. 16th on your calendar for the 2nd Annual St. Patrick’s Day Blog Crawl…I’d love for you to join in, anything Irish! ♣♣♣

Oh I love your tablescape. The linens are all just gorgeous and your pretty Gibson dishes are always a staple I think. All of your decorations are so pretty and I enjoyed the alphabet game too. Now tell me about the St. Patrick's Day Blog Crawl. I don't know what that is. I want to play, but I don't know what to do. Let me know at astrollthrulife@live.com. Thanks. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteLove your early Irish table...I had no idea you were a seamstress in your spare time...you are amazing! That is a cute little shamrock pitcher.
ReplyDeleteI love the shamrock themed tablescape too - you have such beautiful pieces. I bought a scarf for a table runner for your blog crawl :)
ReplyDeleteAnd F is for fabulous, because you most definitely are, my friend.

Stephanie

ReplyDeleteKathleen, have you been shopping again? (or I should say, do you ever stop?) I don't remember seeing those shamrock placemats - they are perfect! Everything looks so coordinated and wonderfully themed! You are very good at the alphabet game - FUN! I am crazy about the black with the green in your header - very striking!

I love your table. I really like the fabric you used and the it looks so nice against the green.
ReplyDeleteYou've outdone yourself, Kathleen! I'm trying to avoid F-words ... since you (and so many who have commented) used them to such great advantage. I loved it when you "fanked" us for coming by. So phunny!!!
ReplyDeleteHope your weekend goes well!
Bill
Fabulous, simply fabulous!

Very nicely done. I bet Mrs. Matlock gives you an A+.
ReplyDeleteEverything is just beautiful! I just love it! So festive and fun, you just need a table full of leprechauns to complete it!
ReplyDeleteGirl, you always rock it!! I thought of you today at Ross. There were these gorgeous square bowls with ruffly edges for $1.99, I may have to go back for them. There were 4 and they were kinda nice sized. Love the cloth, the mats, the pitcher and that vase.
ReplyDeleteHi Kathleen - You're getting us all ready to party to celebrate dear old St. Paddy's special day. I'm thinking corned beef and cabbage and Irish coffee. I'm ready now!
