I still love taking photos of what tops my table.

A year ago I started posting my centerpiece of the month (COTM), and invited others to do the same. Each month I would post all the table-top inspired photos, providing monthly ideas and inspiration.

Toward the end of 2007, I passed the baton—or the table—to Bill & Sandi at the Whistlstop Cafe. Now she posts the monthly roundups, and I happily contribute my monthly ideas to her.

I have these brushed silver turtles that have lit up my table with tea lights for years. This January, with all the Christmas decor wrapped and packed away, pinks and maroons began to emerge as the January color of choice. No doubt because the colors lead beautifully into February, a month dedicated to deep reds and all hearts.
