I really never quite know what to think about the end of summer. It can sure be the end of the heat, but I love the growing season, and the hummingbirds, and goldfinches, so I hate to see it gone.

I have enjoyed seeing the butterflies the last month especially. I haven't had any monarchs only swallowtails. <br /><br />Your chairs caught my eye today. They are so pretty. Love all your pics. The clarity and light was just right.<br /><br />Your napkins were perfect. Tablescaping is fun and I enjoy seeing everyone's interpretation of a theme. I made it after all.

I'm just a theme kind of person, and I love that you carried this out to such detail. Beyond that, it is just plain beautiful all the way around. I love the dishes and linens and all the other touches. Those goblets are just perfect on there. My favorite shot of all is the third one from the bottom with the goblet. it. I pinned that one. So beautiful, Denise. <br /><br />So wonderful not only to do a tablescape but to see YOU do one as well.
