Hello and welcome to Tablescape Thursday hosted by Susan at Between Naps On The Porch. Please visit her blog for a complete listing of participants.Farmhouse Tablescape
As soon as I saw the farm scenes on these dinner plates...I knew I had to design a Farmhouse Tablescape.
The dinner plates are a soft grey black and were purchased at TJ Maxx. The chargers are from Home Goods.
The placemats have a striped and floral side and the striped side was the one I chose for my country table. They were found at Ross. The flatware is from HomeGoods. The napkins and water goblets are from Old Time Pottery. The napkin rings are from Southern Hospitality.
All the goodies in the wire basket are faux.
This napkin ring is made by Fitz and Floyd and I placed it on the table for an extra pop of color. I love the tomato!
The three wooden ducks are by the Valerie Parr Hill Collection on QVC. I love ducks almost as much as I love roosters. I tied on black and white checked wired ribbon to dress them up a bit. I like 'dressy' ducks. Ha!
I do hope you enjoyed my Farmhouse Tablescape. Thanks for stopping in and taking a look. Have a lovely Thursday.~*~

What a beautiful tablescape. I would love to try this too. The brown is a lovely choice with the other accessories.
I just love all your beautiful dishes....and your table scape is to die for. I always wonder what you ladies do with all your dishes. I have a lot of cupboard space but when I see everyones many, many dishes....wow, where do you put them?
Now I have to go visit your Outdoor Wednesday post and see what you did there.
Oh Barb, I love, love, love it. I have those same plates and they are just wonderful. I love the way you've done the tablescape. Everything is just so pretty. Your placemats,napkins and napkin rings are just perfect with the dishes. The ducks are wonderful and I love the ribbon neckties they are wearing. Just toooooo cute. Hugs, Marty
Barb - This all just beautiful. It looks like a great setting for fried chicken, potato salad, and fresh fruit. I love it. Thanks for sharing.

Barb,
I thought of you tonight as I set the table. A plain table. It is a marvelous gift you have. You are so good at setting an amazing table.

I love this, Barb! That dish pattern is one of my favorites. I like how you dressed up the ducks, with gingham. So cute!
Hi Barb! Of course you must know I LOVE THESE PLATES! I almost have the same ones except from Homegoods (I didn't get back there for the large ones and am kickin myself). Blk/Wht checks are always a winner as are the cute ducks/geese?
lol ANOTHER beautiful table - last week the beach now I want to go to a French bistro out in the country???lol Have a great Thursday - Sincerely, Jeannette
Barb this is precious! I love how you always add a touch of whimsy in all of your lovely tablescapes. The trio of ducks and tomato napkin rings are adorable. Gorgeous plates as well.
~Wonderful job!

The black and white checks with your dishes is so crisp and refreshing. I love the ducks and your music so appropriate! Thanks for sharing.

Oh everything is wonderful - love the dressed up ducks and what wonderful napkin rings! I do love a bit of whimsy on the table!

Love the matching bows on the ducks! I saw those chargers at HomeGoods and resisted. Hmmm... They look good! Enjoy! - The Tablescaper
Barb, this is so pretty! I love the black and white with the pops of color. Those napkin rings are sooo cute. And, I'm just loving those pretty chargers!

Barb, your tablescape is just terrific! Love the black and white theme and transferware plates, and those cute ducks! The checked bow on them is such a pretty addition!
Have a nice rest of the week,
Monica.
Barb, that was the greatest farm style scape...your dishes are outstanding... I have never seen those before, perfect with your placemats. Valerie Parr Hill has great things. Are you a QVC girl? Those napkin holders are soooo cute and different!, xoxo~Kathy~ @ Sweet Up-North Mornings...

Excellent tablescape design! You give "farmhouse" a classy feel! Especially when even your ducks are dressed up! Just loved looking at all the details.

Everything is lovely. Black and white is a favorite of mine.
Laura
Beautiful table! Love all your black and white! Happy TT to you.
Love your Farmhouse Tablescape! You did a great job pulling everything together! The pop of color is great!
OH MY GOSH! This is my first time visiting you and . . . all I can say is WOW! You did such a nice job with your tablescape and your black and white and your "dressy ducks". I am so glad I found you! I will be following along and be back often! YAY!
HAGD! Karen
Love the farmhouse themed tablescape, Barb. The ducks are so cute and your placemats and plates go so well together...Christine
Hi! I have been perusing your blog. Wow, what gorgeous tablescapes and photos! You are a real artist. Whew. I am inspired...Not sure what I will do, but I will definitely do something.
Wow - I LOVE your blog!
God bless!
Oh what a charming tablescape! I always love those dishes whenever I have seen them in HomeGoods -- so beautiful. And you have paired them with placemats, napkins and accessories that really accentuate their country charm. A wonderful table! :)
This is charming adn the dishes are perfect. Well done!
What a beautiful tablescape Barb! I love the black and white dishes, the ducks...oh, just EVERYTHING.
I was tempted by these very same dishes yesterday! Beautiful!
Hi Barb, I can't believe I've been missing your blog all these months! I adore your black and white tablescape and your trademark ducks! Been browsing through your past posts and love your style. I'm jealous you live in central florida. I grew up in Winter Park.. went to WPH..(go wildcats!) and I miss it!
Love you tablescape! Love the main dishes. The bows on the ducks are so great.
Your table is gorgeous! Your plates are amazing and of course I love your ducks, great job!
Those are the best dressed ducks in all of blogland. Great plates. The farm scene is so cute. Just love it.
Dawn
Barb, each time I swing in for a visit I remember I have the same ducks. I also have some of the same country scene dishes. Girl you have certainly inspired me to get them out and try and work something up..lol. I hope you missed the incoming storm last night... hugs ~lynne~
LOVE the ducks on the table.. GREAT table!!!
I love it! So country and cozy! The pics on the plates are great...I love TJMaxx and HomeGoods! Today is my first try at Tablescape Thurs.
Your dressy ducks are sweet, and the perfect guests to dine at your pretty table. The faux food fooled me. I was thinking your napkins would be getting stained by berry juice.
I do love your farmhouse tablescape! And your perky geraniums and your faux food! Where did you get the faux food, would you mind telling me? Cause I rarely cook, and it might look like I actually used my dishes for more than tablescaping if I could add little touches like that! I love those plates; great plates! I wish we had Home Goods. But alas, we do not. Love the flatware, and all the goodies on your elegant table! And of course your ducks!
Brenda
GM Barb...girl this one you out did yourself on my friend...how pretty is this...love the black/white and the Classy Ducks...just awesome girl...May you have a great day my friend...Hugs and smiles Gl♥ria
Hi Barb! I love your table...every little detail of it. The stemware is really pretty!! I bought these dishes, too, because I just couldn't resist them. Blessings...
i like it!. . . .alot
I love your farmhouse motif!
What a wonderful flair for coordinating you have!
You're a decorator? You tablescape like one!
I'll have to read your profile.
I very much enjoyed your farmhouse table. The dressed up ducks are so cute and I'm wondering if TJ Maxx has those plates available online. We don't have one here but I LOVE those plates!
Christi
Barb,
I love how you mixed the fabric and dish patterns. Very pleasing to the eye. And I LOVE the tomato! What a beautiful tablescape! You are quite inspiring.
Jane (Artfully Graced)
Your table is so pretty. Like the bows around the ducks necks. :) And lunch is at what time?
Glenda
What a darling tablesetting Barb, I love the farmhouse look sooo much! The plates are so sweet, and the ducks so dapper! The Fitz & Floyd tomato napkin ring is sooo cute well...I just want it!!
Very well done girlfriend!!
Have a wonderful day!
Sherri:)
Hi Barb,
It's all wonderful ... but I think the ribbons you tied around the ducks' necks are my very favorite element --- the perfect finishing touch!
Thank you, as always, for your kind comments and support!
Bye for now,
Bill
I just love your farmhouse table with all the roosters and ducks. What a cute idea. Thanks for sharing it with us. Amy :)
Barb,
I love your farmhouse tablescape. I wanted to buy those plates but I already have 2 different black & white sets, so I didn't. I have those same place mats from Ross. I forgot that they were striped on the back. And I love your duckies with the ribbons. Too cute!! I wish I would have participated this week, but I went swimming instead of playing with my dishes. Maybe next week.
Kim
Oh my, Barb. This is too lovely. The black and white color scheme is perfect for a farmhouse look!
Hi Barb. I love those plates. Those ducks are adorable too. I had to chuckle when you said they were a Valerie Parr-Hill. I am such a QVC girl but I don't remember seeing the ducks. It must have been during the period I was trying to ween myself which didn't last very long :)
Take care, Susan
Very pretty, Barb, I love the way you put everything together so perfectly. Hugs, ~cindy s~
That looks great! I love the checks..and your ducks all dressed up..so cute!
Morning Barb! Thanks for the info on stores you purchased plates from! I do have both in my area and am heading out today for shopping spree!lol I think I'll see if I can pick up another Alexandra book too for some reading on the deck tomorrow!! Hope you have a great weekend; I'm waiting for cooler weather!!!lol Let you know if I find the plates! Thanks again - Sincerely, Jeannette
