Tomorrow we'll be having dinner by candle light, the two of us in this table, with some Chinese take out hubby loves! The soup bowls are perfect for some wanton soup with veggies. We'll see about the rest of the menu, lol...
I did my third Valentine's table for February 14, 2012...on my vintage French, with Carrara marble top table, in the foyer, or receiver and flanked by our two French stripped chairs.
The red stems are vintage and they belonged to my MIL.
My red chargers with vintage doilies from Belgium. |
The dinner plate is from my fine china set. I like to mix and match colors like red and black.
The red plate is from a set of four dinner and mug plates...they're made in Ecuador.
The heart soup bowls I bought while visiting my daughter Sofia and found them for $1,45 at her supermarket. |
I love this table for tomorrow, Valentine's Day, as we will be having chinese take out, which we simply love! |
This antique, transparent, bone china tea set is from after WWI. I have six teacups and saucers and two teapots, one big and one small and a sugar bowl, which have dragon handles. |
On your left corner you can see the smaller teapot. |
The pretty hand painted platter was made by us at our former Ceramic Co. |
I'm also using my pair of vintage French couple, wearing blue hats. |
Happy Valentine's to the wonderful hostesses and thank you so much for having me, as well.

We love Chinese take-out food, too. We probably have it once a week! I never get tired of it!

ReplyDeletehugs ~lynne~
Lovely table. I think take out is the perfect solution for Valentine's Day. No one has to cook and you don't need to deal with restaurant lines.

Hi there, I just wanted to come back by and thank you for your sweet comments on my Sugar Plum. She is a shih tzu. Both of my girls are shih tzus. I love them and think they are adorable and very important, they don't shed. She is feeling a bit better tonight. She started eating and you could tell she felt like playing, but changed her mind.
ReplyDeleteFirst, let me say I got my tea box yesterday! How beautiful. It was so fun to have the doorbell ring and have the mailman hand me a package all the way from Ecuador! I love it and my hubby was so impressed!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful table. Your table is so luxurious and your marble floor too. I love the heart bowls you got. What a beautiful tea set. Hope you had a wonderful Valentines.
You do have the most beautiful things! Exquisite tea set and so appropriate for your planned Chinese feast.
ReplyDeleteI always love to see what you do. Hope you had a wonderful evening.
Hi, Fabby. I hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day. What a beautiful tea set!
ReplyDeleteI had an Oriental Valentines table, and you had Chinese takeout...great minds think alike! LOL. I adore the teaser...Moriagi? Thank you for inviting us for a peak. Cherry Kay
ReplyDeleteOh Fabby, it's beautiful! You have one lucky husband!! I hope you had a wonderful night!
ReplyDeleteWow! I love how you layer everything together for a beautiful table.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous table, with those beautiful legs, to use for your pretty tablescape.
ReplyDeleteHi Fabby! Your tablescape is beautiful, and those chairs sure look comfy. My hubby loves Chinese food too! I hope you had a wonderful Valentines day.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous table! Those little bows in the heart bowls are so cute! And the tea set made my heart go pitter patter! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteVery nice there Fabby! Looks like you had a very nice evening. I do love the table beautiful for a foyer!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.

Hey, Fabby! I am so incredibly late getting around to your neat post! I am so sorry. It has been the week from you-know-where around here!!! I think Chinese takeout is the perfect meal for a Valentine's Day dinner. In the movies, you always see couples sharing Chinese takeout. It must be the food of love! :-) You KNOW I love your tea set!!!!!!!!! I was in a store yesterday admiring the Chinese offerings and wishing I had the $$$ to buy them! Have a wonderful, wonderful weekend, darlin'!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! You have so many beautiful dishes1 I love them all! joann
ReplyDeleteHi Fabby! Hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day. The Chinese take out sounds wonderful, and best of all no cooking for you on a special day. I've never seen heart bowls like the ones you showed, but they are adorable. Thanks for sharing your wonderful table, and thanks for visiting my new kitchen blog earlier this week.
ReplyDeleteStunning and so elegant, Fabby! Your girls are beautiful! Thank you for sharing at Potpourri Friday!
ReplyDeleteDear Fabby, thank you for dropping by my blog.
ReplyDeleteFor sure, please come and join our Bible study group!
I love your Valentine table with the beautiful dishes.
It is gorgeous!
Your granddaughters are so pretty, Fabby. I know I have said that before but it's the truth...Christine
ReplyDeleteSorry to be late to the Valentine party. I'm struggling computer-wise.
ReplyDeleteI love your romantic table for two. Those big valentine bowls give it so much presence.
My favorite treasure is the gorgeous tea set. Wow. I love that!
Is there anything more precious than little grand-daughters?? Yours
ReplyDeleteare beautiful and I know you enjoyed every minute of your week at your daughter's home, visiting with her and your SIL, and getting to SPOIL the girls just a wee bit!!
Don't get me wrong, grandsons are just as precious and I have two of them, but they grew up and are in their mid-thirties now!! I have four grand-daughters and a great-
grand-daughter, and they are younger than the boys....cousins...
so more receptive to spoiling and hugs and such...LOL
Have a HAPPY PINK SATURDAY, and I hope your Valentine dinner with your "special guy" was lovely!
Hugs, Francy
lovely vaslentins post.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting.
So pretty, Fabby! I love those heart bowls from the supermarket!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday Fabby Sweetie...
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful share today. I love seeing your gorgeous table setting. Your tea pots with the dragons, exquisite.
I love your place settings as well. Fit for a Queen and King. Love your striped chairs as well.
Those little heart bowls were the element of surprise. How precious they look atop each place setting.
Love Chinese take out as well. We have a favorite little place here in Phoenix that we love.
Have a glorious weekend sweet friend. Can't wait to read about your trip. I am your newest follower and so enjoyed my visit today. Country hugs sweetie, Sherry
Delightful!! Your little girls are lovely.
ReplyDeleteMy PINK, have a blessed Sunday!

Happy Seasonal Sunday to you!

What beautiful treasures you have (including your granddaughters!) and they come together to create such a sweet table! Your tea set is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteFabby, your tables are always perfect and this one is awesome. I love the antique tea set. I just adore the
ReplyDeletedragon spouts and handles. The white heart bowls with the red bows are just the right touch to your elegantly designed table. Thanks for sharing. Hugs, Ginger
Just beautiful Fabby! Everything looks so pretty! Thank you for joining TTF and have a wonderful week!
