A Cozy Table

My bedroom is one of my favorite rooms in the house,

especially in the winter.  My cozy bed,

piled high with pillows and a warm duvet is

my favorite place to read, study or watch TV.

Since I am single, it is the one room where I indulge my 

feminine side with ruffles, lace, and lots of pink.

I wanted to create the ultimate luxury tablescape 

for one ~ me.

 

Yesterday at Home Goods, I found this sweet little rose

plate that matched my duvet cover perfectly and became

the inspiration for this tablescape.  It is Maxcera's

"Victorian Toile Rose" pattern and comes in a variety of

different pieces.  I chose to only purchase a single salad

plate for $2.99 since I only needed one place setting.

 

 I paired it with my favorite plate ~ my

oval olive~green scrolled plate from Nina Campbell.

 

 

For the napkins, I had two pieces of leftover quilt fabric that 

matched the plates perfectly.  I couldn't decide which one to use, 

so I made one of each and combined them for a more 

luxurious look.

 

 I added a small pedestal mercury glass candle holder

for just a touch of romance and ambiance.

Last summer I found this lovely wooden bed tray at

a garage sale for only $10.  It was love at first sight.  It has legs

that can be extended to elevate it or they can be locked

underneath so it sets flat.

 

I love it's curved edges which gives it personality 

and a sweet delicate look.

 

 

Even though I only set a table for one, as usual, 

Miss Biddy always shows up in time for meals.
