Birthday
On Friday, I celebrated my birthday and so, hosted a little dinner for my nearest and dearest used it as a giant excuse to make a really unabashed tablescape complete with several things that probably should not make it onto a birthday table. Like skull votive holders. Honestly I would never subject a friend (unless equipped with a healthily sick sense of humor) to this sort of memento mori dinner ensemble, but... It's my birthday and I can dress my table as the inanimate embodiment of Morticia Addams if I want to.
I took my cake very seriously! All cakes should be at least as large as your upper torso. Rule of thumb.

Love the tablecloth...jacquard? My birthday is Tues....happy birthday to us!
Your celebratory tabletop is darkly elegant and even a bit decadent, with just the right amount of sparkle and reflectivity for the candlelight to enhance the effect. (I have that same set of candleholders, ones with urn shaped tops.) One would not be surprised to be served absinthe at that table. Happy Birthday Lauren!
WOW! Happy late BIRTHDAY!!! I love the table decor, elegantly rockin!
You had style even as a kid! That flamingo dress is all kinds of amazing. Happy Birthday!!
Happy Birthday! Oh I think this is a fabulous table set up. Nice ornaments and very classy. I think your candle holders are pretty great too.
I am obsessed with this tablescape. Happy belated birthday!

Beautiful pictures!Ilove the glass(or cristal)softly glimmering in the dark...Very inspiring
The blue and white porcelain and skulls are wonderful.
You totally rocked my world! I love your table cloth, the ornaments, even the crystal candelabras, the set up - everything is completely perfect. Somehow, you might want to visit one of my favorite wholesale tablecloths store on the net. Their items are really fabulous and are really perfect if you were having a big party to throw out.
Such a beautiful tablescape...love the feathers!!
The interior design of the ornaments looks marvelous. It perfectly matches the wallpaper of the house. I just want to greet you a belated happy birthday too.
