Incredible Tablescapes

Welcome all my blogger friends.  I have missed you so.  Thank you for all your support through my difficult time.  I want to share some tablescapes with you.  My sister is a very lucky woman.  She has 40 hours in each day.  I figured that out several years ago.  It is the only way she can do all she does!  It is the only explanation.  She runs 2 successful businesses, is very active in her church, a wife, mother, sister, daughter, aunt and friend to so many.  One of her many causes is the American Cancer Society.  She hosted a brunch fundraiser for the Cancer Society on Saturday at her church.  The theme was a a cruiseship.  She did two tables, this one is the captains table.
Notice the dolphin ice sculpture!  I thought it was a brillant idea. The red cape code Avon pieces are from our mom's collection   i
These are lovely as well but I don't know who to give credit to.
I don't know who did this table but I thought it was lovely.
Maybe not a table scape but a cutie pie!
Another lovely table but I don't know who to give credit to.My sister did this table also and I just love it.  She borrowed some things from me. 
The dishes are another find from CEBO's booth at the antique mall.  If my husband is reading this I have had them forever.  If he is not reading this I got them for a song a couple of weeks ago.  She has such cool things in her booth.  You will be seeing these dishes again.  The bunny chair covers I bought at Lillian Vernon many years ago.  I bought the gazebos at QVC on clearanceEverything is so precious.  The silent auction was a great sucess!
Now what would a cruise themed brunch be without entertainment.....Elvis of course!
My beatiul sister and one of her precious friends.  I love you sista!

Well what do you think my blogger friends, pretty cool huh?

  6. I am laughing so hard at "If my husband is reading this I have had them forever. If he is not reading this I got them for a song a couple of weeks ago." I bet all of us have said that a time or two...I know I have. Funny thing is, he is never fooled, plus he knows there is no way I would get anything for a song, as I couldn't carry a tune if it were in a bucket!
    Beautiful tables...the bunny chair covers are adorable.
    Hope you have a much better upcoming week.
