I purchased a new Christmas tree and lots of gorgeous decoration in silver. I have that already decorated and windows cleaned and all linen washed - I also found a couple of prints for the spare bedrooms which I will show you soon.
Last Sunday we had just the perfect weather so I prepared a lovely Sunday morning breakfast table outside. I decided to place the table straight on the lawn instead of using the pergola. The outdoor setting is one I picked up off the road near our unit in Perth one day (actually SNo 1 helped me and he was sooo embarrassed!) but I love the curly legs it has. It is getting a bit wonky but that makes me like it even more!!
I have used a raggy quilt I made a while ago as the cloth and just added lots of pretty bits and pieces - most of these you have seen before but they still make a pretty table.
Pull up a chair and I'll get you some fresh fruit and a cup of tea!!
Have a lovely week and I hope all your Christmas plans are coming along nicely. I'm making lists each day and have all the tizzy things sorted now I just need to concentrate on the food (that makes me nervous!).

your table is gorgeous! Love the quilt piece you used for a tablecloth.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got good health news!
Hi Suzy,
ReplyDeleteI'm glad there is nothing seriously wrong with your eye!
Your table is just gorgeous! I love the colour combination of pink, green, and white! It's one of my favourites and your white flowers in the pink pitcher are so pretty making the whole table so inviting. Love the use of the quilt too! A very cozy table! Seems funny that you are able to enjoy a lovely outdoor breakfast with Christmas on the way. We are starting to get the white stuff here where I live! Thanks for sharing and have a lovely week.
Blessings,
Sandi
Everything looks so lovely. Pink is my Granddaughters favorite color and She says to tell you she is coming right over. HA! HA!

How nice to have an outdoor breakfast, and such a pretty pink table setting. Loved your raggy quilt as the table cover. I've featured a quilt in my post for today, too. I use quilts for table cloths every day on every table. I really enjoyed my first visit to your blog.
ReplyDeleteGlad it was good news on the eye...Did you get over to the Freo-markets on your shopping trip...I miss the crepes vendor over there so much and always loved poking around the booths.
ReplyDeleteYour table is gorgeous and I love the soft pink and white motif, and good find on that table...hehe@embarrased son.
I have not even begun Christmas yet...Maybe this weekend I might get a chance to think about it.

Hi Suzy,
ReplyDeleteJoining you for the first time today courtesy of the Lady Katherine.
Your table is wonderful, the quilt is so pretty and sets off your eclectic mix of china beautifully.
What marvellous photographs you took, I could just imagine pulling up a chair and sharing a cuppa with you, in the sunshine.

Pink and green looks so fresh and pretty -- quite a departure from what we are seeing here in the States this time of year! Hope you eye is going to be fine -- it's always scary when there is a problem like that.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautifully romantic tablescape! Love the quilt!
ReplyDeleteNancy
What a fabulous table setting, Suzy ... so warm & inviting. What time are you serving? We'll be right over, chuckle.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, visit our giveaways~
Have a beautiful weekend ~

I'm so glad you rescued that table. Love it. Happy Pink Saturday!
ReplyDeleteThat is just the dreamiest table setting ever! Makes me long for spring here. My weather could actually accommodate something like this today, only I don't have all those gorgeous pieces! I'm your newest follower and would be delighted to have you follow me back!
ReplyDeleteHappy PS!
Everything is so gorgeous and I'm glad your tests came out well. Have a Happy Pink Saturday.
ReplyDeleteSo Pretty & Pink! I love it, and I love your quilt. Thanks for playing along with my Friday Pretties this week. Very Fun!
ReplyDeleteJoyce
So soft and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty. I love the quilt cloth, and that polka dot flatware is just so cute! How nice to be able to enjoy a meal in this lovely setting. So glad you joined me for Favorite Things. laurie
ReplyDeleteFirst, glad to hear your eye is doing better. I know how distracting that can be when you're not feeling well. Second...Perth. Isn't that the hometown of the late actor Heath Ledger? Being from the U.S., I'm afraid that's really all I know of Perth. Third, GORGEOUS tablescape!!! I love the pink! It's all so pretty, so feminine, so perky!!! With the lovely weather you're having (compared to our temperatures in the 'teens), it is the perfect setting! It makes me long for summer days! Beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteI came over from Friday Pretties. Your outdoor table setting is so pretty...love that quilt!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Marcia
I am in :~Love~: with the flatware! can you tell me where it came from? The whole table is sooo dreeeaamy:*:*:
