Fall will be here in a few days, but it still feels like Summer here in South Florida. The heat and humidity is still going strong and will remain until December. I decided to bring out the flamingos to enjoy the last week of Summer. Fall leaves, pinecones and pumpkins are just around the corner.

I love the pretty flamingos I found at Orchard Garden Center last Summer. I'm really sad they are closing. They always had the neatest patio and garden decor. |

I used three icy blue illuminated mercury glass candle holders from the Valerie Parr Hill collection on the server. I added shells, glass floats and shells. The beaded placemat is from TJ Maxx. |

The piece of coral on the left was gathered by my Dad in the late 60's on a deep sea fishing trip. I remember him bringing it home and bleaching it. It was on display for many years in our den. I found it tucked away in his basement last year. It is in need of another bleaching, but it's so fragile I'm afraid to do it. If anyone has any tips on how to take care of it I would greatly appreciate any advice. |

Flamingo Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Jenna. Whew, I thought I was going to run out of time to bust out the flamingos.
DeleteI love this! And my granddaughter would love it, too. She's been fascinated by flamingos since her first trip to the zoo. I've been looking for items to use on a flamingo-themed table, and you've given me great inspiration. Fall hasn't arrived in N. GA yet, either, and I'm frankly tired of summer, although it's been a fairly mild one here. But I know the hot weather will stay with you a little longer, so enjoy the flamingos!
ReplyDeleteThank you Joy. Flamingos are very popular these days. I'm looking forward to my visit to NC next month and hopefully enjoy some cooler temps and see some pretty Fall leaves.
DeleteSo pretty Catherine, the flamingos are so cool on your tablescape. And of course I love anything Valerie ParrHill.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kari. I have so many new fabulous VPH items for Fall and Christmas. I picked up four new items yesterday.. UGH! My storage until looks like a Valerie Parr Hill warehouse. :)
