I {heart} Pink and Green!

Pin It
PINK! PINK! PINK!
GREEN! GREEN! GREEN!
My two most favorite colors...E-V-E-R!
I am guessing it is because I NEVER had a pink room.
Yep, yellow Holly Hobbie it was for me!
If it wasn't for hubby, my living room
- OK my whole house -
would probably be some form of pink and green...
but then I probably wouldn't be married.

Anyway, I have been waiting for the right time to post this beautiful tablescape. 
I worked on this tablescape with some other talented designers as part of a magazine shoot. I have been meaning to post it for awhile, but I never quite got around to it {surprise! surprise!}, until now! It is perfect for today...or any day!
Gorgeous, eh?
You know what I love about this too...
it can easily and inexpensively be recreated at home any day.
{OK, the floral cake and chandelier would take some extra effort)
Just think, some grocery store roses in an old silver tea pot
or a mason jar, limes and petals and some beautiful linens.
The red toile plates were from the Goodwill.
I bet some of those tissue paper pompoms

would look really great too!

Holly
That is totally off the page gorgeous. Isn't it funny the compensations both sides make in a marriage to make it work for YOUR family. I remember one older lady who posted pictures of her bedroom in all pink and roses and she talked about her husband letting her decorate however she wanted. I told her hoe pretty it was but my hubby would never go for it. She said he had always let her do whatever she wanted.

I'm a big fan of pink and green. The master bath in the beach house we lived in was the most delicious shade of pink. It gave you such a glow. I really want to replicate that here.

So pretty.

Practically Spent said...

Yes ~ PINK. Everything should be pink. We have a whole pink "wing" of our house for the girls rooms/bathroom.

I used to be a prop stylist for NBC health reports when we lived out east, but my assignments were not NEARLY as exciting as what you have done. Be proud of your talent.

Kristin said...

It IS one killer color combo. That cake is just incredible!

PS I love pink, as well, but my husband has banished it to my daughter's room. I have to live vicariously through her.

OMG Holly, that is the most beautimus tablescape I have ever seen. I am so not the preppy pink and green girl either, it is breathtaking. I am printing these out as we speak, for a rainy day, just in case that I want to marry a Captain someday! No committments though, maybe we should just have a big party instead!
