Tablescapes, a popular fundraiser for my local Pro-Musica, generated enthusiastic crowds in 2008. Local designers, florists and shop owners decorate tables with themes of their choosing. I decided to do an Homage to Tony Duquette. The Main Man and I glued a zillion abalone shells onto an iron chandelier as abalone is a recurring design element ala Duquette. Between the two of us, it took 2 glue guns, 4 hours and several cocktails. During the event, scorecards are given out, a contest ensued...I did not win!
The abalone chandelier now resides outside over my patio table.
