Girls Night Out - A Place with Pink and Sparkle

Hopefully the women in my monthly girls night out group will not read this post today because I am trying to keep this a surprise.  Instead of hosting at my house, when they arrive I am whisking them off to a surprise location......my new shop. 

 Some of you will remember my recent post about finding this great piece at a junk shop.  I wanted to use this gorgeous scrubby table when I host the girls. 

Over the past few weeks, business partner Lorraine and I have been so busy setting up the shop and photographing all of the bits, that we have had no time to relax.  But it is almost done, and to celebrate, tomorrow night we are having our monthly Girls Night at the shop.
Using vintage dishes from the shop, I arranged the place settings with pale pink napkins with silver and horn napkin rings.
I'll use the available silverware.......

.......and accessorized the table with bits from my recent trip

The whole table is very girly....

They have all been so wonderfully supportive and full of great ideas for us, I want to create a special evening.

...and transport them away for a little while to a place with pink and sparkle.
I am participating today at Tabletop Thursdays over here at Between Naps on the Porch Blog.
