Since our first day of school begins tomorrow, I decided to put together a little tablescape in honor of it.
It has been a beautiful summer, we've done so much & I've gotten so much done as well. But sadly, in my eyes, summer is now over.
I've had the placements for many years. The apple dishes are from Christmas Tree Shop. Green plates are Pfaltzgraff. Yellow dinner plates from the grocery store. Napkins from Pier 1. Flatware is Cambrige found at Home Goods. Glasses from Target.
I found the bus shaped chalk board at Joanns. The bag came from Dollar Tree.
Hey...wait a minute! Aren't I missing an apple from the above photo? I thought I had three.
This is what I found in the kitchen. Sheesh, stealing apples from the tablescape! My goodness, my children are sneaky! :D
I'll be linking this up at Susan's blog, Between Naps on the Porch, for her fabulous Tablescape Thursday. Also, I'm linking to Sherry's Open House Thursday, although Ann of On Sutton Place is graciously hosting this week. Have I confused you? :D
Thanks so much for visiting & for all the kind comments...you are the best!
Oh I just love this!! Okay, I have a question... where do you house all your different dishes and accessories that you use in your tablescapes??
ReplyDeleteGina- That is soooo cute! I love back-to-school days...and what a great table to come home to after school! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteIt so weird to begin school any other day than monday...My daughter's first day was yesterday, tuesday... Anyway, at least your kids will have an extra short first week of school :-) Bet they're loving that. Good luck to them on their new school year. Oh, and loved your Back to School Tablescape.
ReplyDeleteMuch love,

ReplyDeleteI love your cute back to school tablescape! I have the same polka dot glasses from Target!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Too cute Gina! The kids must have loved that. Feels like we have been in school forever, and her you guys are just starting.
ReplyDeleteI think it encourages our kids when we do fun things like this for them. I love the pic of the filched apple, LOL!
ReplyDeleteLove your Tablescape! I know your children appreciated it :)

ReplyDeleteThose dishes are too cool. Very nice tablescape.
ReplyDeleteLove your bright and cheery table.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, Gina...school didn't start until today?!??!?! I think the children around these parts started back around August 16th or so! This is a great way to kick off the school year for the kids! You did an awesome job! Now maybe they will take an apple to the teacher for credit! ;-) Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute and definitely looks very back to schoolish. I am sure there are many teachers out there who would rather be sitting at your table too! LOL! Very sweet!
ReplyDeleteOh, I like your table setting. Very pretty and cute. Thanks for sharing. Karie
ReplyDeleteYes...I think summer is over. Love the apple plates. Thanks for linking up to Open House Party! Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteThis table just put a big ol' smile on my face!
ReplyDeleteHow cute and delightful. Love those napkins. So fun for the first day of school.
ReplyDeleteThis is just adorable! I am headed to Joann's today (they just opened a new store VERY close to my home!)to see what treasures I can find! Back to school is always sad, but your happy table doesn't show it!
ReplyDeleteCareful who you let see your darling tablescape...the PTA will have you down as chairman of that teacher appreciation luncheon before your know it! Thank you for sharing your charming design. Cherry Kay
