Some exciting news! Last week, I had the honor of being featured with two other amazing designers in an Iconic Life Magazine Feature on Modern Tablescapes as part of their Live Beautifully series.
I thought I would share a few snippets with you along with the details of the tablescapes that were featured. Every table setting I create comes with special memories or a fun story. Today, you will hear and see a few so stay tuned!

It was such an honor to be featured with these talented women! You can learn more about Deborah at Table + Dine HERE and follow her on Instagram HERE. We became friends on IG and I just adore her work! And, Angelica of Simply Beautiful Decor is AMAZING! GO check out her website HERE.

Iconic Life Magazine Feature on Modern Tablescapes


I know we all are so eager to get back to real entertaining. The intent of the article in the Iconic Life Magazine Feature on Modern Tablescapes was to provide tips and inspirations for creating special table settings for the upcoming season.

The first tablescape of mine (ours) the magazine featured was an Anthropologie-Inspired Dinner Party table setting that I created with my two best blogging buddies in Arizona on a retreat we organized to be together in person.

We shared this dinner party in Lory’s gorgeous backyard in Arizona. We also found each other on IG (you can follow her HERE) and have been leaning on each other ever since. She inspires me and her readers so much and it is such a pleasure to share similar passions. You MUST visit her website and follow along with her at To Have + To Host!

We were joined by our good friend Holly Jolley (she is on the left) of Home with Holly J. We are both Holly J’s, so we confuse folks a lot! At the end of the day, we also share a passion for bringing back the art of entertaining and could be sisters from another mother. 😉

We had STUPID fun putting this tablescape together and then is was even more of a blessing enjoying a perfect meal around this table with “the Grandmas”! If you know, you know!!


You can see the whole post HERE and learn more about the story of how it all came together!
The second tablescape that was featured was my Blush Pink and Blue Spring Tablescape. This was a favorite of mine because of the color combinations!

For this table setting, I wanted it to look like the flowers were crawling all the way down the table. Mission accomplished. As I mentioned in the article, the flowers were the key to bringing all of the color tones together. Here are a few more shots of it…

Oh, what an honor it was to be included in an Iconic Life Magazine Feature on Modern Tablescapes! I hope you will stop by and take a gander. It certainly inspires me to create more content, tips, and inspirations as you navigate how you entertain your friends and family. I really do believe that entertaining is sadly becoming a lost art that needs to be reinvigorated for future generations. Are you with me?!


Thank you for sharing all of these.
It was so fun to put them all together, especially with my buddies!
Congrats, sweet friend! And I see you are also with MediaVine now, too! God is good… all the time, right?! So happy for you!
