MY 4TH TABLESCAPE THURSDAY WITH A TWIST.......

NOTE: THIS IS NOT YOUR NORMAL EVERYDAY TABLESCAPE...IT GOES DEEPER AND I HOPE YOU WILL ALL APPRECIATE ME JOINING THE PARTY ANYWAY.  FOR ALL OF YOU DISH LOVERS, COLLECTORS AND THOSE OF YOU WHO JUST LIKE TO PLAY WITH DISHES THIS WAS A BIG THING FOR ME:

So things are always hectic in our house between the kids and work schedules (well Ive decided to be at stay-at-home-mommy again) so basically just my husband (Big Daddy J)'s hectic 3 job schedule.

So he called me during the day saying he was trying to buy me something (just because) but was having a really hard time.  AWWWW How sweet is he!  He then proceeded to give me color combinations like brown/green, black/red, or just solid black and I was supposed to choose!  How hard is that if you dont know what it is your chosing....I mean really.   I told him he can just buy me a $0.25 plate at the flea market this weekend (he promised we would go this Sunday) and I would be thrilled.  He said he was feeling good and wanted to buy me something.   So I told him that I would leave it up to him to surprise me....this is what he brought home.

HE GETS ME....HE FINALLY GETS ME.....   No Really!!  Since we moved here he has been watching me decorate this house, supporting me launch my new design/styling business and this blog.  When he comes home and there is a new tablescape on the table, he says its nice but I dont think he realizes the joy it brings to me.

But...now I think he does.     Never has he bought me dishes, or would even think of buying me dishes. lol   Im so happy is really is Christmas in July but with a much bigger meaning behind it.


The pattern is really nice...black on black and it looks to me like olive branches (I could be wrong).  Also the shapes are fabulous..obviously the dinner and salad plates are square but not hardlined (love that).  Check out  the bowls, theyre not round but rather kinda warped (how fitting for me). I love them.


Again, ladies I appreciate you if you get why I linked to this party.  I know its not dishes in a fabulous display but it will be soon.  The wheels are turning already, and Ive been pulling out other bowls and napkins to see what I come up with.

As always Im linking this post up with Susan over at Between Naps On The Porch for a fabulous display of ladies hard work.
