I’m still recovering from the excitement of last weekend’s big event, yet we’ve entered a new month and one of the biggest events of May happens this Saturday. The 137th Kentucky Derby!!!
Recently, I was asked to decorate a table for a local school fundraiser…the theme was Around the World. Since many of the more exotic locales had been taken, I stayed closer to home and went with the Kentucky Derby, as it is informally known as the Run for the Roses.
We were required to stay with certain elements and a black and white tablecloth, so I chose a wide black and white stripe which made me think of a jockey’s jersey.
I incorporated hot pink roses (the original roses of the 1st Kentucky Derby were pink and white, not red) and included a nod toward pretty pink tulips. The centerpiece was created in a silver trophy urn and surrounded by smaller arrangements in mint julep cups.
So many great details. You did not miss anything. I'm sure whoever sat at your table was psyched.
Looks like a winning table for a fabulous evening to kick off the "Run for the Roses!" I can imagine enjoying more than a mint julep seated at that dressed up table.

WOW! Elizabeth, this came out amazing!
Love the little touches like pink horseshoes and those books! Everyone at the event must have been thrilled!
Elizabeth, your tablescape is gorgeous! I LOVE it! Super creative and beautiful. xo
You did a great job!! So many wonderful details – the adorable napkin rings, pink votives and I'm sure everyone was thrilled to receive such an exquisitely wrapped book! Can't wait for the Derby – it's one of my favorite annual parties!
Elizabeth, You did a fabulous job. Not one detail was left unattended. Everything was absolutely beautiful. Your so creative.
A stylish table with pretty pink tulips to boot! Will be in Vermont this weekend cheering all the contenders on.

You did an AMAZING job on this table! How fun.
I cannot wait for Derby Day, another excuse to wear a hat. We are going to a fun viewing party at the River Club here in the city.
I was able to see Assalt's Triple Crown trophy at the King Ranch this weekend, along with the training facilities. You Texans do everything well!
I would have loved to been a guest. Beautiful as always.
Lucky guests who got
to sit at YOUR table, Elizabeth!
Love is most definitely in
the details : )
Have a wonderful week,
xx Suzanne
Let me just say I got to see this wonderful table in person and though the pictures are beautiful the table was truly spectacular in person! We were so lucky to have "Pretty Pink Tulips" as part of our evening!!! Elizabeth – thank you again for all your hard work and enthusiasm.

PS – Molly is the absolute cutest!!!
Great table, gorgeous flowers. I love pink and red together, love Linda x
Wow, Elizabeth! How fun to see your final tablescape after eagerly listening to your ideas for your table. I adore the napking rings with the jockey jerseys and the books wrapped with the pink ribbon. Your attention to detail is something I love (and can relate to!) Well done my friend…very impressive!
How perfect! I love the horse shoes and all the little details- great job!!
I love the flowers! What a beautiful table… I am waiting for a mon monogram Louis Vuitton bag with red and fuschia stripes going around the middle of the bag… my new obsession…. Even though your flowers are hot pink and light pink, they remind me of red and pink together! Bravo!
Dear Elizabeth,
I have no doubt that I'll be seeing you featured in many more places to come! That is fantastic and even better is your super winning combination of a tablescape 🙂 I love to hear such happenings to such lovely deserving people (YOU) 🙂 So giddy up, did they play race to the table and the first one there gets a special cup?! XO, Kelly
So lovely! I've participated in two huge fundraising tablescape events too so I know how much fun (and work!) they can be 😉 And to have a fun theme like the Kentucky Derby … love it! Happy Monday, sweets!
