Table Top Decor Featured At The Little Table

Inspired by the colors in her grandmother's Yo- Yo pillow, Candy of The Little Round Table created a beautifully decorated vintage inspired tablescape..

Candy's cherished pillow was made with 64 Yo-Yo's which combine variety of delightful and colorful patterns. The meticulously made pillow is trimmed with a wide buttery calico ruffle.
Always looking for inspiraton for her wonderful table top displays, Candy decided to use Grandma's pillow as her template for decorating the table show here.

Using A Mix & Match Theme

Candy used the mix and match theme of the Yo-Yo's to guide the palette and concept for her delicious tablescape.

A soft pastel theme is carried through the tablescape using soft greens and rose napkins, vintage style accessories, and neutral colored dishes placed on a simple off white tablecloth.
