Use What You Have Valentine Tablescape (In about 20 Minutes)

(This is a post from 2013 but thought it was a fun
post about using what you have to decorate...)

This week I am "practicing" with
what I have on hand for
setting up a HUBS Valentine's

Day table (with the hubby)

and maybe even decorations
I can use for an upcoming

MNO (Mom's Night Out)
with my MOPS group.

(Mother's of Preschoolers.)

 

All of this code wording

is really just short for FUN.

 

 

I just found things here and

there that I had literally

laying nearby or in a cabinet

and used it on the table!

 

A fun challenge in less

than 25 minutes.

 

 

But I spent HOURS on this cake.

Okay, I lied. It is faux!

It was sitting in my china cabinet.

So yummy to the eye,

I just had to use it!

 

 

There is a little bit of

vintage lacking here,

I have to admit.

 I did not go into

Bella Rosa storage

and gather up all of

my vintage goodies.

 

The tablecloth, napkins, and

stemware are antiquey

but the pink cake stands

are new.

 

Can you spot the vintage LuRay however?

 

 

 Making a fun tablescape actually

helped me come up with some

ideas for a Mom's movie/spa

 night we are having next week.

 

 

Definitely lots of Hershey's Kisses.

Chocolate, a chick flick, and

time off from the kiddies = bliss!

 

 

But, all of this sweet Valentine

fun was shared with a special someone.

My sweet little girl!

She helped me put out the

"I Love You" confetti and "Heart soup"

and even directed me on

where to put the red roses.

 

(Part of the reason I only

had twenty minutes!)

Enjoy your week!
