Default JAN08VSNMINI7 ~ Table Made Pretty ~ Chat Thread

Title: Table Made Pretty
Hostess: Theresa
Keyword: JAN08VSNMINI7
Time: Nov 10, 7PM EST


Check out the gallery for this challenge HERE!

Sometimes you want to have a Girls Night In! Having friends over for a party in your home is great - to enjoy each other�s company, laugh together, stamp together and get away from everyday life! You do want to impress your guest with your great hostess abilities and pretty table scape.

My challenge to you is to create a table setting, consisting of a table place card, napkin ring and a mini menu or schedule for your event! You only need to make one set.

If you would like, you may also add more - wineglass charms, place mat, napkin, coasters, etc....its up to you!

I have attached two samples below ~ the first is the table setting ready for your guest, the second a view of all the items.

**There are no time limits for making your Mini VSN creations. However, all challenge submission must be uploaded by Nov 24th, 11pm EST**

Uploading Instructions:
*Please remember to put in the correct keyword when uploading your image. If you are using additional keywords, you must separate them with a comma. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
*It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in the chat thread just in case the gallery is being testy.

Your challenge is awesome and I can't wait to get started. I hope I can find a cloth napkin to use in my photo!

What fun! I'll have to play later in the week. My sister is visiting this weekend. This will be fun for Christmas Eve dinner I'm hosting, not that my family will appreciate it though.

Thanks!

I will check in to see the rest of the entries tomorrow late afternoon or early evening! Have fun and remember....have fun, eat chocolate and stamp the night away!

Hugs and blessings to you all!

Default JAN08VSNMINI7 ~ Table Made Pretty

What a great challenge. Thanks Theresa.

At first I thought I would skip this one, but while working on the other 3 this one started to gel. Once I started, I had fun. I actually think I will work on the additional items Theresa suggested. Place Mats, Napkins.

I took a picture of all 3 items and then individual ones. Here are my links:
All 3

Here is my Thanksgiving ensemble. The napkin ring connects in the back, with a slit going halfway up from the bottom on one side, and halfway down from the top on the other side. Then they slide together.


I sent this in to SU! for their contest, so I actually need to sit down and make these again before next week! I'm loving all of the entries - keep em' coming!
