When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us-Alexander Graham Bell

Strawberry topiary

We bought our lovely dinning table recently and it is treated with great care since its new to our home! This week we had a long weekend and had guests for dinner.I was inspired by my friend Purnima in decorating the dinning table.So thought of decorating my dinning table after going through the tutorial in her blog.She had the tutorial for tomato topiary, for a change, I tried the tutorial with the strawberry.
The results were awesome! Thanks a lot Purnima for the tutorial!


Have a look at it.
Strawberry topiary on my dinning table



This shot I took before it was made perfect
I hope you might have guessed how it was done.Don't try it without checking out  Purnima's blog here http://acreativeproject.blogspot.com/search/label/tutorial


She has explained in detail, also I assure you that you will get many more dinning table decor ideas from her.
The pink colour table runner you see her is my dupatta ! I got this idea from Purnima. For a long time I have not used this dupatta (shawl worn on the shoulders ) because the width was short.Thank you Purnima, I am glad that I reused my dupatta! 
The fragnance of the strawberry tempted me to have one. The guest praised me for my creativity, but the real credit goes to Purnima for sharing this idea! Enjoyed doing this. Try it out and surprise your husband or your guests!

  1. Ooooh! Lovely! During summer break, I made something similar but in a wooden basket and the strawberries were made out of silk and copper wire :) And we have similar tastes!
