I love looking through Magazines and Pinterest at beautiful themed tablescapes painstakingly put together by someone with far more time than myself. Wouldn’t it be amazing to have the time to plan the perfect dinner party right down to the table decor? Until now I have had to settle on serving great food and forgetting about the table setting. Two little girls, self employment and party planning just do not mix well!
This is where Sparkle & Dine come in with their perfectly curated table styling kits delivered right to your door.
Stacia Marlow, the founder of Sparkle & Dine, was inspired when her friend, a single mom raising three kids, was consumed with running her own company and didn’t have time to prepare a Thanksgiving dinner for 24 people, Marlow began to turn life’s dark circumstances into a brightly lit stage.
“I sent her links to vases, table runners, napkins, dishes, recipes, smoked turkey, ham, pies and ready to bake dough. All my friend had to do was click, order, pick up, and prepare to host a wonderful holiday with her family. I felt good about helping make my friend’s life a little bit easier that weekend,” said Marlow. “What stood out the most to me is after-the-fact, my friend said ‘If only all this came in a kit of what to do from the beginning, then I wouldn’t have been so stressed!’ that’s when I had my light bulb moment.”
The kits include everything from luxurious napkins and table runners, to decorative embellishments, place cards, and centerpieces. Hosts can choose from classic, Kate Spade-inspired stripes and polka dots, a Thanksgiving-themed kit inspired by the feather trends on the Fall 2014 runways, and a variety of winter themed kits including a Snow Queen Winter Kit inspired by the moviei Frozen and a Missoni inspired Christmas Chevron Kit, to name a few. Whether it’s for a holiday table, or just a meal for your family, creating a beautiful tablescape has never been easier.
I was sent the gorgeous Snow Queen Table Styling Kit to check out for myself.
Inspired by Disney’s Frozen and specifically Elsa’s blue dress, this sparkling snowflake table styling kit is perfect for an elegant Frozen party or Christmas party. The Snow Queen kit features a classic white hemstitch table runner, a turquoise sequined snowflake ribbon and luxurious white napkins with metallic silver whip stitch edging. The trio of trees vary in height, shape, and colour to create a glistening centrepiece. The charger plates have a ruffled edge and the 3D silver snowflake with rhinestones centred on each side is a beautiful ornament that would make an excellent party favour for your dinner guests to take home. 3 Large Footed Mercury Glass Votive Candle Holders complete the look.
I love the details and thought put into this kit, and it seriously couldn’t be easier. Just order the kit you want online and you are set to go. Once your kit arrives it takes less than 20 minutes to setup and create a gorgeous tablescape that is absolutely perfectly pinnable and magazine worthy! Now all you need to worry about it what you are serving!
I was really impressed with the care that was taken in packaging each item in the kit. Everything is carefully wrapped and secured to avoid damage during its journey to you. In addition, each piece included is obviously the same high quality you might choose for yourself if you had the time to go out and curate similar pieces for yourself.

Beautiful but rather pricey for me I'm afraid. :-(

Beautiful settings, we moved to a condo that is furnished so I have been looking for fun ways to change the theme of the house.
