Ella's Rooster Tablescape

on
These are dishes from Bob Timberlake, called "Ella's Rooster".

I designed and made a table runner to coordinate with the dishes.

I pulled out some of my favorite poultry pals to grace this table.



There are roosters, hens, eggs and a couple of "The Little Red Hen" books. Remember that story?

Most women seem to relate to it.


I think it will be the perfect table for a homemade chicken pot pie dinner. If one of those hens would cook the pot pies, I would be very happy to help her eat them!

Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy all of the other tables today.

I always enjoy reading the little red hen and I bought the book for my daughter last year.

I'll have to do a table like this for her to enjoy with me.

Woah. It's a genuine poultry explosion on that table! I hope you're not serving chicken in front of all those roosters.
