Snowmen Season Tablescape


Welcome to my Red Couch.  Sit Down and relax as you take a peak at my Snowmen Season Tablescape!  Welcome also to Tablescape Thursday.  After all the Christmas decorations are put away I bring out my snowmen for the whole month of January.  My snowmen don't want to compete with all the other decorations; they want their own month.  I gladly give it to them as it helps brighten the cold and dark January days ... and no we HAVEN'T received any snow lately!

I have to keep on stopping my snowmen from jumping into my transferware -- they feel like they would make a perfect addition.


I always like to give a bubble glass view if I am using my bubble ware.


The sun is streaming throught the windows.  Flanked by snowmen on both sides is the new candle holder my daughter Tati gave me for Christmas.


Here's a side view.


What sweet faces they have!  They are saying enjoy the snow and making snowmen as the weather won't last!


A front view.

Jean gave me the same snowmen set. I bring them out in January too as they would get lost during Christmas here too. The table looks great and they are so pretty with the transferware. Their little faces and especially their noses are adorable. Tati has good taste, you will use that candleholder in a lot of tablesettings. I was driving Amanda to school today in a blinding snowstorm, (so bad we had to say a prayer) but we made it! So snowmen is perfect for me today! LOL

I love your red transferware and the cute as a button snowmen! I actually LOVE snow and I recall you loving snow too. You can add hearts to the snowmen for Valentine's Day :-)

I love snowmen. I wouldn't have thought to SAVE them for January and leave them out with no other Christmas competition. That's a really good idea! I really liked the way you used yours with that red transferware. Perfect choice.

You make me want to head to Walmart and look around...

Joni, what cute, cute snowmen! I love them on your table, and your transferware is so pretty as are the other elements of the table. I love to shop at WalMart for things these days. I was in there recently and was in love with several things and ended up with some red plates and a quilt. They help make tablescaping and homemaking fun. I love their Better Homes and Garden line. Love your new candleholder your sweet daughter gave you!

Happy Tablescape Thursday to you...

XO,

Sheila :-)

Love your snowmen Joni. They are very charming. They could bring a smile on the coldest winter day. I also like that pink transferware pattern. Very pretty, all of it.
