My post of Pink this week includes a bit of Valentines Day.
Now as you look at my things remember I am a Rustic decorator who also combines country and cottage.........Rustic-Country-Cottage. That is my style and to be honest I do not get fancy for everyday, fancy is only for special occasions, so it does not happen often around here. But, I love to see beautiful decorating.
The place mats are the inspiration for this setting. These mats are easy to make with matching napkins. I took the colors from the place mat and thankfully had dishes to coordinate.

Once Valentine's Day is over you can turn the mat over for a spring look.

ReplyDeleteSo sorry that I missed you yesterday. It seemed like the day just ran away from me! But, with this being ♥Valentine's Day♥ what better time for me to stop by to see your Pink Saturday goodies.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a long and dark winter up here near Canada so filling myself up with pink is my way on the weekend of chasing away the blues - not that blue isn't a nice color, too☺
Thanks so much for sharing. After all, isn't sharing one of life's greatest pleasures?
♫Happy Valentine's Day♫
