As we all know the beautiful colors really make everything pop!
I started with green and gold chargers. I then layered the different colored plates and ended up with a gold rimmed bowl on top. The flatware is from Horchow.
The green cabbage plates are always fun to use.
I then added one of our small topiaries to hang the masks on. I also added the purple fun boa to surround the shade. It's amazing how much you can find in your own house, just by looking around.
As Liz, from Infuse With Liz says, shopping your own house.
Thank goodness for the Dollar store. They have so many fun and inexpensive accessories.
I found the masks, beads and coins there.
I love using the pinched wheel tablecloth with a small tablecloth as a topper. The green doesn't show up much here.
I alternated green and purple goblets.
Night time view.
As usual I dressed our red chairs in purple pillow cases and added the gold sashes
with hanging beads.
Crown napkin rings fit right in with this theme, along with purple and green napkins.
Gold mercury glass candle holders with glitzy gold candles.
King's cake
I hope you enjoy your visit. Have fun on Fat Tuesday.

Love how the chairs look with the sash. The evening photo really captures the atmosphere! So glad I found your post at Sunday View - I hadn't planned anything ' Mardi Gras' but seeing your tablescape has me thinking ...
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty and creative Linda! I bought some of those mask at Dollar Tree last week thinking I might do a table but, my problem is finding the starting point or just starting...lol
ReplyDeleteI bet it's FUN living at YOUR house!!
ReplyDeleteWell, I know the good times are going to roll at YOUR house for sure!!! What a neat table, Linda! The centerpiece is really fun! And you always do such a nice job with your chairs!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week!
What a festive table! Love the centerpiece...very creative. I always forget about doing a Mardi Gras table...then by the time it is time I have forgotten again! Maybe I could whip up a trayscape for the center of the dining room table!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week, Linda.
So Fun and Festive! Looks great in day or night lighting too! Laisser les Bon Temps Rouler!
ReplyDeleteBien sûr! C'est déjà le temps du mardi gras? Comme le temps passe si vite!
ReplyDeleteLinda, with our frigid weather here, I totally forgot that Mardi Gras is here and my 32nd wedding anniversary on Thursday! I am literally in a frozen time warp!
How lovely are your colors! Enjoy Oscar night; we are going to settle in too. HAVE A BLAST! Anita

Awesome job Linda! Love the centerpiece- that's a great idea with the lamp shade. I never go to the dollar store- I swear when I go in they never have anything that interesting! The masks, and beads really make a fun party atmosphere. Love the addition of the dressed out chairs- the gold bows really spruce it up!! That last picture is really cool- love how it looks!
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful and fun tablescape you have created Linda.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun decor for your table-scape!!!
