I know that members of our church in Brazil leave the big cities for a retreat for the youth when Carnival is going on there. So Carnival there must be pretty wild.Red Couch Recipeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04424769747994274064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8862006788392225338.post-58087281200439942802013-02-07T10:22:44.473-06:002013-02-07T10:22:44.473-06:00Thanks, Tricia!

The green glass plate gives a great pop of color! The centerpiece is very pretty with the cutout masks and then the use of real masks for napkin rings. Lots of Ideas!<br /><br />PamTea in Texashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03641316653134781223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8862006788392225338.post-64278167411309410382013-02-06T21:00:08.850-06:002013-02-06T21:00:08.850-06:00Fun Mardi Gras table, Tammy!!! And you're so r...Fun Mardi Gras table, Tammy!!! And you're so right...the white tablecloth allows the darker elements to pop off the table! I've never been to Mardi Gras, either. As an adult I am too chicken to brave all that hoopla, and as a kid my parents didn't want to brave the hoopla. So I guess it's just a celebration I'll have to admire from afar. A more intimate celebration like the one you have set up here is much more to my liking! I do NOT remember seeing those beautiful purple stems at OTP!!! Maybe they didn't put them out here in the KC market. I'm in that place all the time, and the first place I make a beeline to is the stemware aisle. It seems to me like they've really toned down the glassware over the last few months. A couple of years ago there was all kinds of exciting stuff. Now I see mostly clear and nothing really super exciting. Oh, well...maybe they're just taking a little break! I hope you have a great Mardi Gras weekend!!!! Party hard!!!!Alycia Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14690591304562176674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8862006788392225338.post-54073664083542472462013-02-06T20:50:41.764-06:002013-02-06T20:50:41.764-06:00Wow - love this table!
