“…I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you.”
Jeremiah 31:3
Happy Valentine’s Day, sweet friends, wishing you a day filled with lots of love and laughter! Do you have plans with your sweetheart tonight? I have been a little under the weather due to an outpatient surgery last week, but don’t worry, I have been well taken care of! My sweet hubby brought home an orchid on Thursday, roses on Friday, and tulips on Sunday…he is definitely a keeper! Our sweet Katy has prepared Whole 30 meals and delivered them to us and they were so delicious…and guess what else she brought? A beautiful orchid! A girl can never have too many flowers, right? I have felt very loved!
Like I said, I have been showered with lots of flowers, so deciding on a centerpiece was quite easy. Although at first glance, it looks like one set for February 14th, today’s setting can be an anytime table…Valentine’s Day, Sunday dinner, or an evening with friends. Pull out a chair and join us for an evening of Black Tie and Red Roses…no formal attire necessary, the dress is casual at our house…we love our tees and jeans!
American Atelier dinner plates in the “Baroque” pattern…simple gold flatware…and causal stemware rest on black and gold placemats.
Tall candlestands flank the centerpiece.
I divided the roses into three small vases and placed on a wood slice along with votives.
A precious friend made the black bow tie napkin rings…I cherish them! They hold embroidered cotton napkins from Pier 1 many years ago.

Antlers, along with the wood slice, add a touch of rustic whimsy to our setting.

Do you enjoy a candlelit dinner?
I so appreciate every visit and your comments make my day!

How romantic! I’ve never seen you use these place mats before, but they are perfect with this table setting! Love the bow tie napkin rings. 🙂 I’m glad you’ve been well taken care of and showered with flowers. Wow, Katy gets a gold star! (And Butch, too, of course.) Glad you’re on the mend, my friend. Happy Tuesday!

I love those bow tie napkin rings! Pam, I didn’t realize you had outpatient surgery last week, as you haven’t skipped a beat on your blog. I do hope it wasn’t serious, but anytime we have to have anesthesia it’s a jolt to the system. Sounds like your family took great care of you. Blessings!
Pam @ Everyday Living says
Thanks so much, Rita…I am feeling much better. Happy weekend!

Creative theme and lovely pieces. Placemats are great and bow tie napkins rings are so cute. The red roses pull it together beautifully.
How wonderful to be showered with flowers and food. I would have caved on the diet I’m sure.
Have a great evening of candlelight and romance.
