So many wonderful tables. Thanks so much for sharing these. You are really the Ambassador for tablescaping. I figured most of us from out of state wouldn't even know about tablescaping Competitions without you. I learned it was after seeing you on CBS Sunday Morning. I know it's disappointing outcome, but I believe you and I do it because we enjoy doing it, not for glory. But with that said...theirs always next year. 😊

Thanks so much Glenn!! Have only been doing OC for 5 years and the amount and creativity has grown so much. I think it was other tablescapers time to win this year. Whatever the judges say , I know my tables are wonderful and know they inspire others. There were 10 of my viewers that entered, some for the first time and am so thrilled a lot of them won awards!! And the best part is I have so many new friends that took a risk and are now part of our table friend group!! We all have such fun and support and really like each other!! That is the best part!! 🥰🥰🥰

Hi Bonnie!! I think your table is magnificent! What in the world are those judges looking for?? I don't think Alice looks "confused", she is in awe of what is around her. Sheesh. Plus in other categories I thought some tables were super and they got nothing. Wow. Well, in our eyes you won 1st place 🏆!! The hex with those judges, they don't know something awesome if it bit them in the patootie!! lol Thanks for sharing all the lovely tables Bonnie, it was fun and I would do it too, just to creative as you do.

Thanks so much for your sweet message Rose!! It does get me down, but I decided to look at it in a different way. It was meant this year for others to get awards. It was not my turn no matter what table I did. So I accept that. There were so many new friends that watched my videos that I got to meet and some won a lot of ribbons!! Am so happy for them!! So I look forward to Fall, Halloween and Christmas and 2025 tables!! Whooopeee🥰🥰🥰

It was so nice to see all these tables. Many had me drooling. And also nice that some newbies won a few ribbons. Your table was fantastic. That backdrop was everything and those florals were just right. It's not about whether you win or lose, right? I think you play the game like a pro so you're a winner in my book, no matter what those judges said.

Who are these judges?! Just because you now the proper way to set a table doesn't mean you have an eye for art and creativity. I wish there was some way to get more clarity on what was wrong with the table or what else could have been done. Your table was so unique and detailed what was confusing about it? You're fabulous and inspirational Bonnie! Everyone is a winner, ribbon or not, for having the guts to put yourself out there to be judged!

It is so complicated!!! In each theme category there are round or rectangle tables. Those are either 36 round or 30x48 inch rectangles. There is 1st, 2nd and 3rd in each theme for round or rectangle tables. Then there is a division winner for each theme. The fair provides the tables. Whooooo… so complicated!!🥰

I've been waiting for part 3 of this year's series, but am a bit confused?? Who are these judges and what qualifications do they have? I'm sorry but just because you know how to correctly set a table doesn't mean you are trained in judging art and creative style. I can't believe your table didn't win anything and had that horrible comment. Confused?? It was pretty clear what was going on with Alice; she was in a scary twisted wonderland. Even if the bats, creepy rabbit and man-eating plants didn't get the concept across, you explained it. I guess you never know what they will find appealing, but I really didn't see a wow factor in the "Best of Show" table. At least not like last year's Goldie Locks & the Bears table. Oh well, kudos to everyone for having the courage to put themselves out there and be judged. Can't wait till next year!

Thanks so much for your thoughtful message!! I had no errors and have no clue who judged the tables!! I was confused by the comments also!! I try to look at the positives and feel it was meant for me to not win this year at either fair. With that said, I was thrilled for all those who won an award yet did not understand the best of Show table!! I would pick any other table but that one. I don’t get it. I think it’s best to do your best and be happy in your heart that you did a great table regardless of the judges. And most important, to inspire others to create and put it out there to be judged. That is something to be proud of!! Here’s to next year!!🥰🥰🥰🥰
