Valentines Day!

”Happy Valentines Day Everyone!”  Yeap… it’s that time of the year again. This year my husband asked me like he always do every year, ”Well babe what do you want to do for Valentines Day?” I wanted to stay home believe it or not and just have a quiet dinner at home.

Valentines Day Tablescape

So…. here’s my tablescape. I didn’t want to do the traditional red dishes which is beautiful when the table is all set. I wanted to do something different this year. I dusted off my black and white dishes I purchased from Ross for $3.99 each a few years ago.

Dinner Napkin, napkin ring

My black and white napkins are from Tuesday Morning, the napkin rings are from Belks.

Candle Votive, Black Vase

Everything you see I’ve already had. I just borrowed a few things from another room to pull the look together. The blingy crystal candle votives, I purchased from Ross for $8.99 each. The two black vases I purchased are from Hobby Lobby and it was on clearance. The  smaller one $7.oo the larger one $11.oo.
