I just loved this tablescape
that I did last year!
Since I have made so many new friends
during the past year I thought I would
share this tablescape again.
I hope you enjoy it
the second time around!

Absolutely Gorgeous Ginger! I am so glad you decided to show this post again!
This was fun to see again! Such a gorgeous table, makes me ready for romance! Hugs, Linda
Dearest Ginger,
My, what a Valentine treat that was. How come you didn't introduce your gorgeous red Amaryllis bulbs?
Your runners and napkins from Horchow are lovely and so is your wedding-gift china! Would like to sit with you and chat over coffee...
Love to you,
Mariette
I am so glad you reposted this!!! I actually gasped, it is so gorgeous, every little detail, the napkin rings and pops of prink hearts and flowers...Oh your house is sooo gorgeous!

What a lovely party, Ginger. Very intimate and romantic. You have so many wonderful pieces! May I sit next to you???? ;o)
Absolutely lovely! Skip the dinner! I could just hang around for hours with a hot cup of tea and maybe a few cookies! :)
Beautiful. I like how it's Valentines-y without screaming at me. Makes me want to open your champange and sit and visit a while.
Your table is stunning, as is the entire room! It is so elegant, but still feels very warm and inviting.
Love your little corner table with the bowl and pitcher set from your previous post. And, those camellias are beautiful.

What an unbelievable table! Wow! We have had renovations ongoing for a while and I long for pretty again- and less sheetrock dust!
Beautiful! I love the table and the pink plates. The room is lovely! Wish I could come! Thanks for sharing your beautiful home. Joann
Oh my goodness! How beautiful everything is!!! I love all your dishes but seeing those lovely pieces from your wedding (1958) just made me feel so warm and fuzzy! How sweet and precious! Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Wow, Ginger -- so many pretty things you've shared today! I really love the pops of hot pink from the hearts in the sherbets and in the lilies. But the whole table is sooooo elegant!
Everything is so lovely, just gorgeous! I am in love with your pink china, so pretty.
Happy VTT!
I am so happy that you reposted this as I have never seen it..It is absolutely beautiful!..The silverware is exquisite. I cannot say enough about this so elegantly designed Valentine tablescape.
So very very pretty, i'm glad you shared it again. Your sterling waltz is fabulous.. love it.. xo marlis
Very pretty! Thanks for sharing again!
It's gorgeous! I Love it. The placemats/table runner are gorgeous too!!Hugs! Thank you for your bloggy friendship and participation at Katherines Corner xo
Gorgeous setting! and I love that you used a square plate on top of the round ones, it looks great ! something I have thought of doing but was never courageous to try (now I will). Your coffee dispenser is a fabulous find!! love the pop of pint the hearts add to the setting..xo HHL
Since I wasn't blogging last year, Ginger, I missed this beautiful table, so thank you so much for re-posting it! It's just beautiful! I MUST get extra runners to do them crosswise--I've always wanted to do that, then end up just getting one... Your dining room is beautiful; perfect for such a lovely setting! Thanks for sharing it; I really enjoyed looking at all the details! ~Zuni
Glad you shared it since I didn't see it before! I love the punch of the hot pink. Your sterling is exquisite! You had fabulous taste even at 17 years old.
Just stunning Ginger. So Savannah too. I love your wedding coffee set so much. And the little hands dish is darling too. That coffee perculator was a still and looks beautiful with you coffee set. It's such a shame women don't get all dress up and go to bridge or other parties like my Mother did. I would love to play dress up and put on white gloves with a beautiful dress and share in all your finery.

I am so glad you let us see those pictures again this year, because I missed them last year, guess I didn't know about your blog then
what a beautiful table and room and oh I love the large champagne glass holder WOW is all over this room. You have such an elegant home Ginger
Hi, Ginger! Is that a samovar or a percolator? I haven't seen a good old-fashioined percolator in years! They were the best! I remember as a kid watching the coffee pop up into the little glass head and thinking how cool it was! I passed up the opportunity to purchase a silver samovar a few years back, and I am SO sorry I did! What a great addition that would have been!!! Beautiful table for Valentine's Day or any day when love is in the air! I hope you are geared up for a good weekend! Take care!
How beautifully festive! I love those teacups and saucers, so lovely!!!!!! I'm sure drinking tea out of them is such a pleasure!
Ginger, What a fabulous welcome to Savannah. Your romantic setting is lovely. Love the colors and the vintage valentines and the wine cooler is awesome! So dramatic!
Hope you have a great weekend,
Babs
This is looking stylish!

So glad you shared this post again. Perfect for Valentine's Day with the hearts and roses. Lovely table.
Ohhh...ahhh.....what a beautiful table. I LOVE that silver pattern, so different and romantic particularly with the little swirl. And those salt cellars just lovely. Oh, I love the whole thing. I'll be right over.
Great to have you at Seasonal Sundays.

Super charming. I want to do something like this. My friend was complaining that the restaurants are crowded and overpriced on Valentines Day...would be fun to do something at home....although a lot of work to be as gorgeous as your table.
What a treat to dine at this lovely table. It is truly full of romance! The pretty linens, dishes, and special touches all say Amour! I've never seen the Waltz of Spring pattern. It is gorgeous. Love the curvy handle! Thanks for opening up your beautiful home in Savannah! ~ Sarah
This is a beautiful tablescape ... Love the china. Thanks for sharing it again!
Beautiful table...love your silver and love the plates with the pink flowers!
This so charming, elegant ... all I can say The Table is just georgous! Where do I begin to point out all the lovely and beautiful things which makes this table special! The Waterford centerpiece is especially important and I see why you treasure it! I just love it all and you have perfected the tablescaping of a wonderful Romatic place to dine! Happy Tablescaping! Pam
Oh, this is just gorgeous! you did such a beautiful job putting this table together! Thank you for joining TTF last week and I hope you are having a great week!
