A Table with Frosted fruits and silk flowers...:)



Late December  has always been a time for celebrations. The holidays are filled with reunions of family and friends. For occasions like this table settings along with beautiful center piece decorations play an important part . The season too like no other season  provides citrus fruits Oranges, shiny Tangerines and other fruits like Apples, Grapes,figs, strawberries etc.

During this season there is excitement in the air and many have in their mind how do I present my table in a fresh and impressive way.It is not always possible to go for expensive shop bought decorations. A table arrangement with fruits and flowers along with China wares for a holiday entertainment  is most welcoming. If you are thinking of giving a festive sparkle to the center piece the theme is expanded to frosted fruits and flowers .

I created a pastel table setting with frosted fruits and silk flowers to give a festive touch. It was fun creating this table as well the frosted fruits. 

Idea to create frosting fruits: Brush egg white (after beating lightly) on the fruits where required. Then sprinkle powdered sugar over the painted egg white. Remove the excess sugar from the fruits by gently shaking it off. 

 This arrangement on a holiday... sets the scene for you and your loved ones...:)

Shades of Green

This is September, and the month offers its own fresh start to many things. Here in India, it is the beginning of festivities and celebrations for the next few coming weeks. These are the days of showers too, and it is truly refreshing & soothing to see the plants and trees after every brief shower. The moist leaves give us an impression that they are happy and smiling and breathing a 'Thank You' for the fresh green look. I love the colour green and as we all know it is one of Mother Natures primary colours. The green stem is honoured and credited to hold every flower of different colours. That's awesome. Inspiration comes from every where and the colour green inspired me to do a scape, with the green touch. I collected the green ware from the racks and putting it together as a teascape was pleasing to the eyes like the happy greenery around us. Sometimes it is wonderful to have tea and treat ourselves amongst a small collection of green plants. M...

Playing with Plaid:)))

 Hi there... In my last post i used Plaid table cloth for an Fall table setting. There was a interesting question in  comment box that 'Is there any season that you cannot use Plaid?  That made me little curious and made me to think why plaid materials are used widely in Fall/Winter more, than in other two seasons. Did a little bit of  study about plaid/tartan and its use and sharing few points here what i understood.   They are mostly used during later part of the year for various reasons.  It is a versatile material for Fall/Winter. The fabric is a combination of wool and cotton. Plaid is a pattern of strips or bands of bold colour that intersect to form squares. For centuries its been popular and are associated with various culture and fashion traditions. In Summer plaid patterns are used in cotton materials which are breathable and easy to wear. Some popular plaid patterns are:  Tartan plaid a pattern that originated from Scottish clans & ...
