Styling by Coty Farquhar: Welcome to the 140th Tablescape Thursday!

Hi Everyone!
Happy Tablescape Thursday! I have a wonderful Giveaway this week for Tablescape Thursday. This giveaway will have 6 winners so lots of opportunities to win!

I'm so excited to share the gorgeous and breathtaking designs of Coty Farquhar. Are you familiar with her blog, Styling by Coty Farquhar? If not, you are in for a wonderful experience!



Coty lives in one of the most beautiful places you can imagine, the Southern Highlands of New South Wales in Australia. Her lovely studio is in the town Moss Vale. Even the name of the town sounds magical, doesn't it?!




Coty designs, styles, produces and photographs all her own amazing work. I am so excited to announce she is currently working on a book! I can't wait to get my hands on her book! If it is one/tenth as gorgeous as the work I've seen on her blog, it will be amazing.

Whether you are planning a wedding, anniversary, party or a special event, Coty can make it into a dream occasion with her talent for exquisite styling and presentation.



Her beautiful blog is overflowing with inspiration and ideas.



While I was drooling over her stunning photography earlier this week, I was so inspired I came up with an idea for a future tablescape I can create underneath my pergola. It's impossible to visit Styling with Coty Farquhar and not come away with at least a dozen new ideas for your home or an upcoming event.




Tablescape Thursday:

For this Tablescape Thursday, I'm sharing one of my very favorite tablescapes from Coty's blog. Coty had a rare day off from her design work a while back. While home, she glanced out to her back property and notice an apple tree covered with the last blossoms of the season. She was inspired to catch this fleeting moment before all the blossoms were gone for the year. These photos convey so beautifully how Coty can transport you to another place with her eye for design and gorgeous imagery.















Giveaway for Tablescape Thursday:

Coty is sponsoring a generous giveaway today for the readers of BNOTP. In her Studio in Moss Vale, she carries beautiful furniture, paintings, prints, collectibles and gorgeous jewelry. Coty wanted to do something special for BNOTP readers so she is giving away a pair of earrings to six very lucky winners!

Coty sent over these beautiful images of the earrings; even her giveaway images are gorgeous! How I wish I lived in Moss Vale so I could visit the studio in person!



Beautiful!



I have to confess, I'm in love with those darling pearl earrings!

I have been a follower of Coty's for a long long time. I think she is the greatest styler of all time and tell her so regularly. Her talent is the most creative I have ever seen. It is my first blog read of the day. Her skill at photography is beyond amazing. I can't wait to see her first book and cherish every page. I would love to win any of the earrings but the pearl and coral ones are very special. Thank you Coty for everything you do. You have no idea how much you have enriched my life.

I've been a follower of Coty's for a long time. I love her artistry. You picked a wonderful table to showcase, although picking any of them would have been very hard as each post is as beautiful as they come. Thanks for hosting this lovely give away.. like you, I'm partial to the pearl drops! But love them all just the same. I couldn't like her on FB so I had to ask her to be a friend...did I mess that up?
I think I'll share your post on FB and blog about it later, I'll let you know..
