Moody Valentine’s Day Table

It’s been over a month since I shared a tablescape with you, so obviously I’m way over due! I have loved played around with all the beautiful blooms I gathered up for spring! You can see all of them in this post I did a few weeks ago. I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to play around with all the stems and create a fresh new tablescape for spring. I loved our Thanksgiving table so much that I decided to do a new spin on it and try out a Moody Valentine’s Day Table.

Modern Serving Pieces

Inexpensive Table Runner Ideas

For the table runner, I used a very inexpensive solution! I ordered this huge roll of black paper on Amazon and it has served so many purposes around here! I used it for wrapping gifts and I’ve also used it as a table runner for a couple of table set ups. The best part is, after the party is done roll it up and toss it in the recycle!

To add a little texture, I put a light weight linen fabric on top of the paper along with black beaded garland and then added my florals!

Floral Valentine’s Day Table

I gathered a collection of pillar candles, white matte vases and a few glass ones and filled them with simple and organic looking floral arrangements! I love how all of the deep red, blush pink and magenta florals pop against the black and white canvas. And all the cascading greenery, yes please. Now that adds a little romance to the table!

I purchased all the florals on this table from a couple of different grocery stores. Proof that anyone can put this together! When picking out flowers at the store, I always look for complimentary colors that would work well together, take everything apart and then create my own arrangements.

Valentine’s Day Table Decor

This table decor could easily work for a spring dinner party or Valentine’s Day Dinner for the whole family or just two!

Oh and side note, I still love this modern accent chair I got a few years ago and I’m playing around with the idea of getting a matching one and putting them on either end of our dining table to give it a statement look. Thoughts?

And now I’ll leave you with a few more photos of the table to look at!

Almost everything in here was either brought from our Washington home 3 years ago or bought second hand! Piece by piece this room has become a cozy space for our family over the last 3 years. The new stairs are staying and will work into the new design, I love them so much.

It was tricky. But I’m glad we kept going because the look is everything we envisioned and exactly what my son wanted. I still have lots more to do in here, it’s not even close to being finished. But I’m sure loving the dramatic before and after so far. Linking all sources.

I’ve been looking for the perfect accent chairs I’ve been looking for the perfect accent chairs for our family room for years! Any time we have guests over, or our whole family wants to hang out together, it always feels like we could use a few more seats to spread out and get comfy. I have had my eye on these gorgeous Vail accent chairs from @denvermodern and they didn’t disappoint. The leather is soft and high quality, they are wide and comfortable and the brass accents are chef’s kiss. They are perfection.
