Good Morning Linda! I ADORE your hot air balloons that your created with dowels, straws and paper lanterns! SO clever and your baskets were the perfect choice for hot air balloon baskets. Adding the ‘sandbags’ to your hot balloon centerpiece is such a cute idea too! Your Queen of Hearts reigns supreme at your table and I love your plate stack with the heart shaped plates and pairing of black and white checks and stripes with your red. As always it’s a treat to join you at the table and hop with you. Happy Tuesday ♥
ReplyDeleteSo so so pretty Linda and so innovative.
ReplyDeleteYou have such a talent for taking items and making them... not only work for your tables,... but they are adorable too. We lived in New Mexico several years ago and the Hot air balloon fiesta was always something to look forward too and your beautiful hot air balloons brought back fond memories. And your menu has me salivating already this morning. Thanks for always giving us new tablescaping ideas.
Kari @ Me and My Captain
You never disappoint Linda. Your table has beauty and whimsy. Love it. The hot air balloon is great. Love the queen overseeing the table. Happy Tuesday. xoxo Kris
ReplyDeleteLinda, what a wonderful way to start the morning! Your post title is absolutely perfect for your whimsically styled tablescape. Love, love, love the hot air balloon centerpiece creation --- and you made not one but two! Such a clever and talented gal. All the details come together wonderfully, including that beautiful plate stack. Your menu sounds delicious. As usual, your guests are in for a sweet treat.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun table -- It's so darned pretty and those lanterns-into-balloons are simply brilliant. Love your Queen, too! What a fun tutorial that would be! Bravo!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun, innovative table. I LOVE your hot air balloons; so creative.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lauren, I try to create beautiful designs for my table.
DeleteHi Linda! I love your table theme, and the Valentine decorations are as cute as can be! Pinned!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Cecilia, the party should be great fun!
DeleteYou had me at Peach Bellinis!! Your table is so festive and the favors are so sweet! Have a Happy Valentines Day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Patti. Peach Bellinis are calling my name.
DeleteLinda, while I love your heart shaped plates, those hot air balloons are simply amazing! What creative genius you used in putting those together! You need to post a picture of the puck lights glowing at night with this, it's fantastic. I love those glass hearts as favors too. Mixing the high end, low end items truly makes my heart sing when I see it look so good. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteThank you Rita. I am thrilled with the hot air balloons. I do love using high and low end items.
DeleteThat Per one Girl is so adorb! Love her! Sweet things Linda..
ReplyDeleteYes, the Queen of Hearts is so sweet. Thank you.
DeleteYou've outdone yourself with those paper lantern hot air balloons! So creative!
ReplyDeletewhy thank you Debra. So glad you like them.
DeleteYour hot air balloon theme is so creative, Linda! How your made them is so incredible. The heart salad plates and the glass hearts are my favorites. I miss Pier 1, but am happy you have that Queen of Hearts. Great job!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kitty. They were fun to make. So happy top find the heart plates on Mercari.
DeleteOh Linda, this is over the top cute! What a creative theme, love is definitely in the air! The hot air balloons are amazing, I'm assuming you made them with lanterns, straws?, and can't quite tell what the base is, but oh they are so adorable! Love the black striped cloth, it really makes everything pop! Oh how I would love to be a guest at one of your incredible parties! Thank you for the Valentine fun ❤️
ReplyDeleteJenna
Thanks Jenna. Yes, I made them with paper lanterns with ribbon and bows. Two square basket I already had were perfect and then I added the burlap favor bags as sand bags. I wish you were one of my guests. What fun we would have.
DeleteYou went wild, love all the crafting you did to make this happen like your hot air ballons! You had FUN, love it! Are your nails red 😉
ReplyDeleteYes I did..ha ha. A fun craft. No, my nails are hot pink right now.
DeleteLinda, you outdid yourself with the hot air balloons and the theme! Every detail on table is a delight. And keeping the balloons up high allows for easy conversation. Love the menu too :)
ReplyDeleteRR
Thanks Rachelle. Yes, have to have conversation at the table. I made sure the balloons were high.
DeleteYou created a wonderful, imaginative table that just takes me away!!! I love the way you incorporate every little detail like the striped straws covering the dowel rods - Genius crafting!!! All those tiny touches come together for a fabulous experience!! It is always such a pleasure to hop with you!! Hugs and Kisses XOXO
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Ann. I appreciate your sweet comment. I was lucky enough to find those dowels that straws fit. Hugs and kisses back at you.
DeleteCreating the hot air balloons was so smart, Linda! Very creative. I'm just blown away with this delightful table.
ReplyDeleteI've never ridden a hot air balloon but I think I would like it.
Darling tablescape. Everything is so well done.
Thank you Bonnie. Blown away is a great expression. I haven't been in a hot air balloon either.
DeleteLinda! Wow what an amazing tablescape! I love your hot air balloon idea for Valentine's day! All your beautiful details are just so fun! I love the Queen of Hearts too! Really fabulous ideas!
ReplyDeleteKarin https://www.karinskottage.com
Thanks so much Karin. The Queen of hearts is happy reigning over this table.
DeleteOh, Linda, I love LOVE your theme! It's carried me away to a whimsical holiday! The black and white is a sophisticated base for the hearts and all the red. How you created the balloons is fantastic. Alice wouldn't recognize this queen of hearts! What a wonderful lead-off for the hop.
ReplyDeleteSandra @ Dinner at Eight
Thank you Sandra, love your carried away comment, too cute. It was so much fun creating these hot air balloons.
DeleteI love this theme for the Valentine's Day table Linda. You always do a great job with decorating a table with such detail. I like the other tables and the menu sounds just yummy!
ReplyDeleteJulie, thank you. I am hoping everything goes well on Sunday for the brunch.
DeleteWow Linda, you did a fabulous job here! Love the hot air balloon pieces, they add a nice whimsical touch! That black and white tablecloth sets up this beautiful table and of course I love the dishes! Lots to enjoy while sitting at this table!
ReplyDeleteLiz, thank you. I have never been in a hot air balloon, but I loved the idea of one on my table or two. I must have changed the tablecloth three times before remembering I had this black and white striped one.
DeleteLove your Pier I queen and the Hot air balloon..Lovely table!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Missy. I love the Queen of Hearts as well. It's shame the store closed.
DeleteHow darling, Linda! I do love the centerpiece flanked by the adorable hot air balloons. This is too, too cute! Everything on the table is so pretty and festive, and the tablecloth helps the reds pop. Super fun!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ricki, The centerpiece is something I changed up a bit. Thank goodness for the dollar store.
DeleteHi Linda,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great job on the hot air balloons. It would be a wonderful treat on Valentine's Day to be in a balloon with your best sweetheart. The table is very festive and ready for guests to enjoy. The Queen resides over the whole tablescape with regal authority. Lots of fun.
Lynne, Thrifting Wonderland
Thanks so much Lynne. I wanted to do something special for my guests. The hot air balloons were a fun craft,
DeleteLinda, this table is absolutely gorgeous! You have put so much thought and work into creating the perfect Valentine's Day table. The hot air balloon centerpieces are amazing! The Queen of Heart is darling residing over the festivities. Wishing you a wonderful week ahead!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteWrong post! You have set such a festive tablescape Linda! So sorry I commented on the wrong post! I have had a horrible migraine all week. Headed to the party now!
ReplyDeleteLinda, how clever to create the hot air balloons. Your tables are always festive and full of details. It must be fun to dine with you! I have one of the Queen of Hearts. She will come out soon.
ReplyDeleteAlways fun to hope with you, talented friend. Thanks for the inspiration and Happy Valentines!
Such a beautiful table, Linda. And the hot air balloons are so unique! Such a clever design.
ReplyDeleteLinda...I am so excited over your awesome creativity! I love your hot air balloons that you created. Such talent! They make a beautiful statement that fits in so well for Valentine's Day and with the red, black and white colors, they are both bold and shouts "party" and "fun." And the hot air balloons light up too! Would love to see it with the lights out too. The floral and heart centerpiece is perfect with the hot air balloons. They make a great pair and are just meant to be with the striped black and white tablecloth and your Queen of Hearts. The sand bags on the balloons are such a cute detail. Such a fun, festive and unique Valentine's Day tablescape. Happy Valetine's Day.
ReplyDeleteLinda, the hot air balloon idea is so clever and a showstopper for sure. The straws, the baskets, sandbags…every detail was carried out perfectly. I love the dramatic striped cloth with your plate stack, and of course, the Queen of Hearts, adds the finishing touch! The menu sounds delicious. It is always a pleasure to take a seat at one of you lovely tables ♥️
ReplyDeleteWow, Linda! Your hot air balloons are so dramatic and they make quite a statement! I love the black and white striped tablecloth. You tied it all together so well with the red, white and black color scheme. The menu sounds divine! It was fun hopping with you again. Happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tablescape, and the hot air balloons are a stroke of genius, how clever!
ReplyDeleteLinda, your Valentine's table setting is over the top darling! The Queen of Hearts reigns here. And, a close second is the hot air balloon and it's awesome. The colors pop in all the right places and the heart shaped dishes are perfect here. I enjoyed looking back at some of your other fabulous tables. Looks like the cloggers were enjoying the beautiful setting. Lucky guests invited to your table..............
ReplyDeleteEmily, a big thank you. It is always fun to look back at some of the tables. You would think I would run out of ideas. You would be so welcome to join me at this table.
DeleteSo fun, Linda! You are the undisputed queen of tablescapes. That picture of your friends is great...I love the gal peeking out from the head of the table. SO fun!!
ReplyDeleteWow Kim, thanks so much. I appreciate your kind comment.
DeleteOh Linda! Love is definitely in the air! I love your attention to detail. You really have thought of everything, right down to the sandbags! I will definitely be borrowing your idea for the DIY hot air balloons. Your rose napkins are so cute too. What a fun table to celebrate the season of Love!
ReplyDeleteMaureen, many thanks. Gotta have sand bags with hot air balloons…lol
DeleteThis is just such a fun tablescape Linda! The detail you put into all of your designs always amazes me. I could never have come up with your hot air balloons in a million years.
