Hello! Don’t know about where you are but over here, it is freeeeeezing. I cannot get over this frigid weather and we are only in November! I am looking at all of the snow that has hit so many areas in our country and wondering (and praying) this is not a prelude as to what is to come…..crazy! Makes me want to hibernate for the next three months.

You know what I haven’t done in a loooooong time? A contest! I think its way overdue….so I am here today to announce the newest contest, Tabletop Love. This can be just about anything having to do with a beautiful table setting. It could be a special celebration, your Thanksgiving table, a birthday dinner, a beautiful party, a wedding you attended,? maybe just your everyday set up. Whether a table for one or 100, if you? have created a beautiful table setting, then by all means, please enter it into the contest!

These contests are such fun and as I tend to gets lots of entries so I will have to cap it off at 50 entrants. I will divide the contest into two rounds of 25 each and then we will have a final showdown! There are only a few basic rules which are below. I cannot wait to start getting your pictures. I have made up a little post on some beautiful and inspiring tabletops to get your creative juices flowing:)

 

The winner will receive his/her choice of an over sized gallery tray…..

The Rules-

  • Any tables setting is acceptable whether it is for 1 or 100 (buffet tables are welcome too)
  • They can be everyday table settings or those for a party or holiday
  • Please when you email me put TABLETOP LOVE in subject line so it does not get lost in the shuffle
  • You can submit pictures of previous table settings (example last years Christmas dinner or Thanksgiving table)
  • This contest is opened to residents of the U.S. only (sorry to my internationals readers but fragile heavy items are very costly to send overseas)
  • They must be your pictures and not taken off the internet/out of a magazine (but if you are submitting as an example a picture of a friends table or your sisters holiday table that is fine as long as they are your pictures)
  • Limit is 2 pictures per person

Love the idea and I will have to take a few pictures of my Thanksgiving table which will be filled with my Spode “game” china and lots of evergreen and pine cones, it will be rustic but elegant. I hope it all comes up as I have planned. I loved all the ideas you included too, so beautiful. Thank you Tina.

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Love your contests. Cannot wait to drool over all the entries with a glass of vino and Sista on the other end of the phone! Can’t wait! Have a great rest of the week and stay warm!

Tina I am sure this will be a great contest with all of the talented readers and bloggers here! Stay warm!

Hi Tina
I live in beautiful Destin Fl. (the gulf coast)
This morning it was 27. Our white sand looks exactly like
freshly fallen snow.
A reminder of last winter.
Stay warm

Sounds like fun, Tina! I love a beautiful table scape, so count me in! (It’s probably not fair if I submit a photo from your bloggers luncheon, but that was one of my favorites, ever) Off to look through photos! XOXO

Ha! Just read Jeanne’s comment….. no NOT fair;);) No submitting luncheon photos!!

I can’t wait to see what is submitted as I know you’ve got some super talented followers!

Tina,

You are so clever! People will love participating and I love seeing their photos. This will be so much fun.

Hi Tina, saw your terrible snowstorms on our TV, we have got the reverse, today in outer Sydney it got to 37/99fahrenheit we usually get these temps Feb/March!

I love this idea. Who doesn’t love and appreciate a beautifully set table. I will be hosting 14 for a formal Thanksgiving dinner so will be sure to take a few pictures of my table, this will be a fun contest.

Oh, I DO love your contests!! I can’t wait to see all the gorgeous table scapes! I agree with Jeanne, your table for the blogger lunch was the prettiest I have ever seen. Have a beautiful day, Tina!! xoxo

What a great idea from the queen of pretty table settings. I will be sure to send in pictures of my Thanksgiving table, I am doing it with all fresh greens, hope I can copy the picture I was inspired by. Have a nice day, Tina here we have gotten 11 inches of snow!

Hi Tina,
My grandmother always set the most beautiful tables! This year I will be using things from 4 generations from both sides of my family to hopefully create a beautiful Thanksgiving table setting. I hope my grandmother would be proud!

Beautiful inspiration and fun idea. I will send in pictures from my daughters wedding which was so beautiful, the tables I personally designed. Great idea for a contest.

Tina, it is freezing here too! IT is too early for this.

I love your new contest! I cannot wait to see what everyone comes up with!

Have a great day and stay warm.

This is so much fun!!! I just came across my table setting from last Christmas and thought it was awfully cute, so will be sending that your way. Seriously stopped in my tracks at Hoagland’s today when I was looking for ornaments for my boys. I saw the blue and white ginger jar and wondered if you had seen it last week when you were on Greenwich Ave. Seriously has your name on it! 🙂

I am trying to decide which table setting to send. My Thanksgiving table is all ready and looks so good this year. Today I went shopping for everything for our Christmas table. Maybe I will try them out, take photos and figure out which is best. This will be tough!
