Parisian Tablescape

Delaney had invited two new friends and one best friend over to Sunday Dinner. We would be entertaining 7 girls and 2 guys all in, perfect time to breakout a Parisian themed tablescape. I think girls can appreciate it.
While shopping at a new super store, TPT Home, I can across these wonderful Paris themed napkins. That was all I needed to inspire me.
I grabbed a rusted iron fleur de lis from the back yard along with some iceburg roses. A little Eiffel Tower made an appearance. I dug out this coffee filter/cupcake wrapper pom garland I made for Alyssa's bridal shower. They reminded me of a can-can girls skirt. The garland added just that little dash of color the table needed.

To break up all the black and white, I added the blue napkins under the others.

We had a great dinner of chicken shish-ka-bobs with pineapple, zucchini, onion and red bell peppers, rice, bread and yummy dessert. We played celebrity after and we all had a lot of fun!
