“A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver.”
Proverbs 25:11

Thank you!
Happy New Year, Pam! Ah your tablescapes are always a delight, and so much work in them, I know! Where you put all the different dish and glasses sets, I don’t know! Hehe!

Happy New Year Cath. Let’s just say I am running out of space!
I hope the New Year finds you in good health and excellent spirit!
Ryoma.
Wishing you a wonderful 2019!
Harvest time would be my pick for favorite, Pam! Sometimes it’s hard to discern favorites by the numbers, don’t you think, when there’s a link party involved. I noticed even seasons make an impact on what readers seem to favor also. Any way you view it, those are all beautiful. Happy New Year!
I definitely agree, Rita! I do think seasons impact on what readers favor.
Lovely photos as usual Pam. Heart felt wishes for a safe and healthy New Year???
Happy New Year Alice!
Happy New Year, Pam! I absolutely could not pick a favorite. It’s fun to open Southern Lady and see you caught their eye too! Looking forward to more pictures from your “new” dining room.
Thank you Roxanne! We will meet again for the championship next Monday!
Happy New Year, Pam ! Each one is so lovely, it is really difficult to select a favorite. However, my heart sings for the Summer In The Garden and Valentine’s Day Table for Two. Love, the new dining room color more every time I see it. .
Thank you Sandra. All of the Christmas decor is down and it always looks drab afterwards, we are tying to seeing a few peeks of the sun this morningz❤️
Happy 2019 Pam! I love all of your tablescapes but the Christmas one is a favorite due to the beautiful glasses, Fitz & Floyd pieces, & plates. I’m sure your Daddy appreciated his many years with the post office being recognized with a special plate. May God give you health & much happiness in 2019. Blessings! Clara ❤️
Thank you dear Clara! Hugs and blessings for 2019❤️
Pam, I remember each and every one of these gorgeous tablescapes. They are all so pretty! I wanted to tell you I made a trip to the paint store yesterday and purchased a sample of your blue paint. I hope you don’t mind, but it may become my new dining room color. I always loved your red dining room, but my heart just flutters when I see your new beautiful blue dining room. It is such a lovely color! I hope you have a most blessed and happy 2019! Happy New Year, sweet friend!!!
Shannon, I would not mind at all. I used the color for years in client’s homes and always said I would one day use it in mine. I have loved the change.
When all of your tables are so special, it’s hard to pick favorites. This year I’m betting there will be a favorite in your newly painted dining room! Happy New Year, Pam, and let’s hope for all good things.
Thank you Linda, Happy New Year! Am I right in assuming that you might have been at Blackberry Farm last week?
Happy New Year! Fun to see your top five today. Hard to pick a favorite but I really like your alfresco one with fruit and zinnias.
I wish the sun would come out here. We have had so much rain.
We’ve been gone for eleven days and were sick while we were gone. I’m catching up slowly and enjoying the holiday.
Enjoy your day!
Thank you Bonnie. The rain continues here, and we are in need of some sunshine for sure. I hope you are feeling better!
Happy New Year Pam! Thank you for your lovely posts, they have brought such joy…
Thank you dearest Sue. Happy New Year Blessings!
Of course all your tablescapes are gorgeous Pam, but it is fun to see the most popular of the popular! I have been smiling with each table you set in your newly painted dining room, I can tell you are having a lot of fun with your new color palette! Happy New Year, and let’s hope the Tide rolls one more time!! ❤️
Thank you Jenna. Yes, one more game RTR!

Thank you sweet Maristella. You are a treasured blessing. God bless you in 2019!
Hugs,
Pam
Oh, sweet friend! I don’t know what I would do if I were forced to choose which one is most beautiful! Each one is a true work of art and demonstrates your amazing gifts and talents! It is a gift to all of us to get to see the photos and just enjoy the amazing beauty you create. I am so thankful that in 2018, the Lord let me come across your blog somehow (I can’t even remember how we “met”), but it has been such a blessing to me so many times. I come here with a burdened heart, and it just takes me away to a place of calm and rest. By the time I leave your site, I am always feeling refreshed in spirit. God uses you in amazing ways. I can’t wait to see all He will lead you to do and share in 2019. Happy New Year to you and your family, and may each day be filled to the brim with God’s blessings!
Thank you sweet friend. You write the most precious comments of encouragement. I don’t remember how our paths crossed, I am just so thankful that they did. Happy New Year to you and yours!
Blessings,
Pam
Oh I am never disappointed when I come to see your beautiful blog posts!
How stunning each and every one of these were! I remember all of them!
Happy New Year!
Thank you so much Nancy!
Well, I can see why, Pam! But I think that Easter one wins my whimsical heart today. It’s so spring, so “of things to come” and filled with such joy. Happiest of new years, to you. I look forward to all the beauty you will share with us in 2019!
Thank you dear Jeanie. Before I turn around, it will be time for an Easter tablescape!
Each tablescape offers beauty and inspiration for all seasons . I love the simplicity of the Easter centerpiece – the pitcher of tulips on a base of greenery and the soft colored eggs really say “spring”… and the sweet bunnies make perfect dinner guests . I can shop in my own home for that look . Now , if I can only remember where I’ve stored everything …
I look forward to sharing time with you in 2019 !
Happiness wished for you in the new year !
Christine, thanks so much for your sweet visits. I look forward to sharing time with you this new year!
Blessings,
Pam
Pam, I can imagine sitting with you & enjoying a lovely cuppa together in your beautiful settings! 😀
It is always a joyful blessing when I visit here, thank you! ♥
Blessings for 2019,
Jennifer
Thank you Jennifer for your kind words.
Blessings,
Pam
Happy New Year Pam! I always enjoy a look back at your beautiful tablescapes. I’m hard pressed to choose a favorite but I’m partial to those set in your beautiful garden. Here’s to an abundant season of garden blooms in 2019!
Mary, thank you so much. The rain continues…
Happy New Year!!! Your tablescapes both in your dining room and in your garden are always breathtaking to say the least!….such a wonderful treat to see your beautiful tables and look forward to seeing more in 2019!!
Thank you dearest Shirley!
You celebrate every season so beautifully, it is always fun to look back at the favorites. I’m looking forward to what you will be sharing with us in this new year. I know it will be beautiful.
Thank you so much Karen!
