Colorful 'Thanks Giving Table'

     Our festival....Diwali the festival of lights was celebrated last week with family & friends with lot of fun fair. The festival as- usual left a lasting memory of sweet moments being with close ones and with the joyous feeling of decorating home sweet home & preparing mouth watering sweets & dishes.  Beside expressing this I grab the opportunity to say a few words at this time of the year with a tables cape. 

   It's November and thanks giving month as well. I am happy to say this and my thanks too.... this is my 7th year in blog- sphere. It is during the Fall season I started my blog Crystal Grandeur. Days just keep moving and truly a wonderful feeling to be blogging still. A big thank you to all the many near&dear ones in blog sphere for stopping by to like and to leave  comments at CG. It encouraged & encourages my weekly dose of table styling non stop over the years. Once again thank you all. 

  I am certain you are all enjoying the color bursts of  the season with warm colors of red,orange, pink, yellow, blue, purple and magenta . Lovely to be amidst the beautiful colors of nature where ever you are while you take a stroll  or while you drive. 

   Bringing natures color and natures bounty from the garden to the table is fun for a celebration like Thanks Giving. Creating a table with seasonal fruits and veggies sometime can play a crucial part in a well designed 'Thanks Giving' center piece.  I have used Fall colors and home grown fruits including the Pineapple with a rustic touch here to bring in the mood for a holiday festivity.  

  'Wishing everyone a Fabulous & colorful ' Thanks Giving Day'

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

Diwali With Lights

The word Deepavali stems from the Sanskrit words, Deepa meaning ‘Light’ and Avali meaning ‘Row’. It means a row of lights and illumination is undoubtedly its main attraction. Deepavali, the festival of lights, even to this day, projects the rich and glorious past of our country and teaches us to uphold the true values of life.    THE FLICKERING LIGHT OF A FLAME IS TRULY MAGICAL. SCENTED POTPOURRI AND NATURALLY DRIED LEAVES ADD TO THE OCCASION.    GO AHEAD AND CREATE AN INVITING DECOR FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS TO ADD TO THE FESTIVE SPIRIT   A WINDOW LEDGE TRANSFORMED WITH THE ONSET OF THE FESTIVE FERVOUR.THIS IS A WINDOW DRESSING FOR DIWALI   CREATE AND TRANSFORM THE SPACE AND LEAVE AN EPHEMERAL IMPRINT THE RUSTIC AND ETHNIC LOOK OF THE LAMPS. LOTUS BUDS ADD TO THE BEAUTY.
