“French Style” Tablescape dedicated to my mom she loves all things French!
Napkin Ring Giveaway information is at the bottom of this post.
Here we are looking through one of my black chairs at the the tablescape 🙂
ooooh lets get in closer shall we?
Black and White with a little punch of hot pink!
The tablecloth is fabric from Walmart!
I like using unusual things like frames on the table.
Le Poulet (The Chicken).
I used my white dinner plates from Ikea once again and my black and white “Toile” plates on top. (Toile means cloth)
Notice my white napkins spruced with my pink napkin rings!
Do you love or what! Again I am using my dollar store finds! These little black tea-light holders are fabulous on any table..remember I also used them in Beachy tablescape HERE

I snatched a couple of buds off my beautiful flowering bush (I can’t remember the name of it) and placed one in each of these darling juice glasses that I picked up at the thrift store! I love how my plain glassware just sparkles on the table and how everything looks so European up against the brick walls.

I stole this glass jar from the living room that is filled with white balls that have cute black letters on them. How perfect is that! Isn’t it interesting how when you use a glass dome and place something very simple underneath it…that simple little item becomes something magnificent. I used a clear glass cake plate to elevate it and give it even more prominence on the table.
I don’t have enough of the black and white Toile salad plates so I used these white salad plates that have words on them. The whites don’t even match but I think it all came together.
Okay…a little secret…see those black charger plates sitting underneath the white dinner plate? They are actually gold and red chargers…I just flipped them upside down!! How cool is that! No money spent here!

I also used some other odds and ends from around the house. The white rooster and the tall black wooden thinga ma bobs to add some height and drama.
Hope you all enjoyed my “French Style” tablescape.

Ahhhh…it just says spring doesn’t it. Look at the blue sky with white puffy clouds in the back! I think these colors and ideas would work perfectly for a Mother’s Day Lunch or even a wedding reception..don’t you think?

Here is another fun fall tablescape that I put together using yellows and oranges and natural elements.
Very cute table! I have those toile dishes! I got them in a set of four from Spiegel some years back. That tablecloth is great- who knew Walmart was a place to go to for French deco too! I like the flipped over chargers- very creative! All of your elements are creative and fun to look at!
Black and white and pink is certainly a charming combination. Your mother would certainly be pleased that this table is dedecated to her.
Love, love, love the black and white…beautiful!
Have a beautiful weekend!
;-D Kathleen
This is one of my very favorite color combinations. Great job presenting it.
Oh this is so gorgeous! I would love if you entered this in My French obsession linking Party on the 1st!
Love
Frenchy
I need to stare at it longer ….LOL
Have to head out the door & hoping I'm not too late to enter.. Have to come back later to buy napkin rings on sale. LOVE them!
I LOVE it. Seriously so beautiful. I love you color choices.
Thanks for so many ideas! I'm going out to the kitchen right now and see if my chargers have black undersides!! I also like that you incorporated a picture frame into the tablescape. When I go by the frames at TJ Maxx (which has really cute, cheap frames), it was sort of a half-thought that I might do something with them on a table. Now you've completed what was only half a thought! I love black and white, too. I plan to get a cup of coffee and have a longer look at your wonderful tablescape. Thanks!
Beautiful table! It looks straight from a magazine!

This is beautiful! I love, love, love the black and white. I love the simple pink accent too…my kitchen is done in roosters, but they are quite colorful 🙂 Thanks so much for stopping by my blog!
Well, do you think I like your French style tablescaping? Honestly? I DO LOVE IT… §;-)
B&W is absolutely stunning. I would die for your apothercary.
I never seen that in Stockholm, Sweden. I been looking for that for a couple of years now but to no avail. It sucks. I love glasses, big or small & adore cloches.
I love your blog and guess, will hang out here often.
Take care and have a wonderful Friday & w/end ahead.
Those beautiful pink blossoms are Azeleas. They are blooming everywhere across the southland just now.
LOve your site. I'll return.
I love the way all the black and whites came together. I enjoy matchy matchy, but this is better, pulling a variety of things together to show off a theme. Thanks for sharing.
Love your black and white and everything just came together there. Beautiful. Be blessed. Cindy
I've been visiting your site for awhile now and every time I'm here I love what you've done even more than the time before. This, I think, is my favorite setting. Those pink napkin rings are perfect (I love pink) and the black and white is so sophisticated.
Beautiful!

Simply gorgeous! LOVE the hot pink — azaleas, are they? And with the pink napkin rings, the black and white is both sophisticated and feminine. Love it!
Black & White – my absolute favorite – you did a wonderful job – may have to adopt some of your ideas..Thanks for sharing…
Oh, la, la…love, love, love the black and white. Just gorgeous! Love all of the extras too-rooster, white balls with black letters, etc. Great photography too!
Very pretty – love the "turn the charger upside down" tip!
Lovely black and white table, love the toile tablecloth.
I love the black and white.
Wow…thought I loved the one I blogged about…but now the black and white!!! Oh la la! I love it. I am thinking about making a table cloth like it and using red accents with it instead of pink. I am not a semstress, but I think I could do a table cloth! Did you do just one photo frame on the table? I love that you use thrift store, garage sale and dollar store stuff. You take inexpensive stuff and turn it into GOLD! I love your ideas and now am super motivated. I asked this question in my blog post though…What do you do with your tablescape when it's time to eat, or do you only dress the table before dinner, or? I am having a very DUH moment in relation to that! XO Heidi
Oh my darling daughter,
I love, love, love the black and white. You knew I would. Aren't you so precious to dedicate this tablescape to me. I love you to pieces. I would love all of those gorgeous things on my patio. I really think I NEED them. You have such a tremendous talent and I am so proud of you. MOM
Gorgeous table-love the black and white!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Love your site!!
