Tablescapes

"Tablescapes" - this is a term I've learnt from Anna Spiro over at Absolutely Beautiful Things. It's all to do with placing objects on tables, shelves and mantels, and there is a real art to it. Anna is an expert at it and I am learning from her. Here are just a few examples of hers.









Stacks of beautiful books are really useful, as Jen of Made by Girl will tell you.






These are some of my favourite 'tablescapes' that I have featured in various Cush & Nooks blog articles. As my friend Bec and I were discussing recently, it's all about layering and having varying heights for interest. The fun part is shopping for the interesting pieces to create the looks.

  4. Hi Vic - Kris from Puffing Troll here - just popped past to say hello and let you know that I love your blog. Gorgeous! As for the tablescapes - I wish. I have the most enormous (ahem, I mean huggable) cat in the whole world called Butcher. He would be a tablescape destroyer of the highest order. Devastated. :-)
