Conversation Hearts Tablescape for Valentine's Day

Tuesday, January 28, 2025

 


Happy Tuesday, My Lovelies!  I am so happy you're visiting my blog.  Today we're sharing our Valentine's Day tablescapes.  If you're linking in order, you just left Linda's gorgeous blog.  She always creates the most fun tablescapes, doesn't she!  

My Friend Rita from the Panoply Blog hosts these blog hop parties, and she does such a nice job organizing everything and keeping us on track.


Thank-you so much, Rita, for organizing these talescape blog hops.  You're the best!



I found these felt conversation hearts at Michaels a few weeks ago, and I thought they were so cute that I purchased them.  I was planning to use them as filler in a glass vase, but I changed my mind and scattered them on a plain pink linen table runner.

 


I set our breakfast room table for breakfast for two (for Mr. Bookish and me).  I used very old placemats I purchased from Kohl's several years ago.  I also used a few MacKenzie-Childs heart pieces (small plates and paperweights).



The plate stacks consist of MacKenzie-Childs flat rimmed dinner plates and Royal Check and Rosy Check heart-shaped plates.  I thought it would be fun to use the Royal Check on the table for Mr. Bookish.  I also set the table with linen napkins that match the runner.





Mr. Bookish has already put in a request for heart-shaped scones, hot tea, coddled eggs, and toast for breakfast.  

It's a simple tablescape, but we think it's super fun.

Resources

Everything on the table is Mackenzie-Childs except:
Pink linen table runner and napkins:  Sur La Table
Placemats:  Kohl's (years ago)

  3. Rikki Jill I love your Bible verse...the Captain and I used 1 Cor 13 at our wedding some 20 years ago. Your conversation hearts are adorable and I have a candy dish full of the candies that I can't seem to walk by without grabbing a couple to snack on. Your MKC dishes are perfect for you and your honey to celebrate Valentine's Day. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰

  5. Such pretty MKC dishes, Rikki Jill. They go so well with the heart placemats and scattered hearts that you used in the setting. So nice to be able to celebrate with your "Valentine". Breakfast is a perfect start to the day and keeps the sentiments you expressed in everyone's mind. Happy Valentine's Day!

  12. Such a fun table for Valentine’s Day Ricki Jill! Those placemats from Kohl’s are perfect for your new felt conversation hearts!

  13. Ricki Jill, needless to say, I love all the pretty MKC featured on your table. How lucky we are to get to live with these special, colorful ceramics! I will pull my hearts out this weekend. I'm packing up my snowmen and will focus on February, the month of hearts here. I have plenty of them! It's always such fun to see how you style your table. 1 Corinthians 13 is a favorite verse. My sister had it posted on the window sill above her kitchen sink. She lived it!

  16. Ricki Jill, this is so freakin' adorable!! I love the conversation heart theme with the heart stuffies and placemats. You made the mix of MacKenzie-Childs hearts so appealing! Darn it, now you've made me want the blue (I have several other colors and pattern)! This is really a sweet way to dress up the simplest and best start of the day, with breakfast. I love the flowers in the vase and your little heart messages in the violets, too. Such a sweet touch. Ricki Jill, thank you for bringing a smile to my face with this table set for you & Trip. I appreciate your sweet comments, and you being a part of this fun group.

  18. Ricki Jill, the table for you and your husband is so playfully fun. The felt candied hearts are so fun and always takes me back to when I was a child and shared these little sweet candies with friends. They were always separated out by their sayings. So cute and nostalgic. I love how the hearts were the inspiration for your table with your lovely heart pieces, including your cheerful heart placemats and your McK-Child's plates . So charming. Happy Valentine's Day.
