Free Napkin Rings

SPECIAL NAPKIN RING PROMOTION!

By The Style Sisters - Monday, February 22, 2010

Starting tonight for this week only if you purchase

8 napkin rings...you will receive a set of 4 in any color for Free!!!

(White, Blue, Red or Pink)

I set this table using a green/blue color pallet. I filled a large glass vase that I found at my local thrift store for $8.00 with decorative small green apples to add a fun pop of green.

Then I decided to try out another centerpiece idea...... I got out my clear glass cake stand and stacked some of my white lettered dishes on it. I bought the dishes a few years ago at TJMAXX for a deal! On top of the plates I placed a sweet bird's nest with decorative robin's Eggs under a glass dome and I really liked how it turned out. I received the cute "Friends" sign from a sweet "pay it forward" giveaway and it looks perfect! Thank you Amy Kinser.

Just using things around the house or kitchen you can set a beautiful table.

I hope this gives you some fun ideas of how to set your table for a fun spring time look!

YOU CAN PURCHASE YOUR NAPKIN RINGS RIGHT HERE ON MY BLOG.

MAKE SURE IF YOU PURCHASE A SET OF 8 THAT LEAVE ME A NOTE AS TO WHAT COLOR YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR 4 FREE ONES TO BE!

Easter

Pink and Green Spring Tablescape Idea

By The Style Sisters - Wednesday, February 17, 2010

I put together this beautiful Pink and Green Spring tablescape using my Pink Napkin Rings that you can purchase HERE or you can purchase them directly here on my blog listed on the right side.

The spectacular cut crystal glasses were given to me by mom that were passed down from her mom.

They are from Germany and are in such beautiful

Easter Egg colors!

I layered the table with a piece of burlap and another piece of fabric in a nice green color.

I like using textures along with something sparkly!

I placed a large wreath that I filled with green and white silk hydrangeas and light pink peonies (left over from daughters wedding almost 3 yrs ago).
It really made a statement when I placed the white porcelain chicken in the middle. Then I changed my mind and added the white and glass topiary in the middle

The light pink and green napkins I bought from TJMAXX four for $4.00 and placed one of my pink berry wreathed napkin rings over them and it just popped!

I just love these color combinations for Spring, Easter, and Mother's Day!!

So springy

Here is a closeup of the gorgeous napkin rings on the napkin.

The napkin Rings come in white, Pink, Blue and Red.

They are only $1.50 each!

You just can't go wrong with White plates from Ikea!

Hope you enjoyed this Springy Tablescape!
