Some of my favorite spring dishes --


These are from Pip Studio --


I love how all the colors mix and match perfectly -- reds, pinks, blues, and brown.

An Easter Table


An Easter table.


Pastels -- blue, green, and pink...Mixing gold and silver.


Also mixing flatware -- something new for me.


Spring is finally here -- just in time for Easter.

 



Centerpiece.


Square table -- set for eight.
There are three different bunny prints on the salad plates.


One.


Two.


Three.


Foil eggs to match the dinnerware.


Napkin holder details.


The colors remind me of my wedding -- and the Pfaltzgraff Alexandra china.
{I need to find more place settings -- of the Alexandra.}


Pier One -- twig forks, cream chargers, cabbage plants
Amazon -- cream flatware
T.J. Max -- placemats, dinnerware, printed napkins
Pottery Barn -- Spring tree, 
Hobby Lobby -- metallic eggs
Target -- white napkins, gold straws, place cards/holders
Michaels -- ceramic berry baskets
William Sonoma -- napkin rings

Spring Table -- Orange & Green


A Sunday SPRING table --


I usually gravitate towards the pastels in the SPRING,
but thought it would be fun to do something a little different.

I alternated clear glass goblets with the orange goblets -- to downplay the orange a bit.


The salad plate was the inspiration -- greens,  yellow, and orange.
{Salad plates are a great way to change things up 
without having to buy a full set of dinner dishes.}
The napkin rings are a favorite 'sale' purchase from last year.


The color combo remind me of the 70s -- My mother's kitchen was orange and yellow.
Cheerful. And green is always my go-to color.


Everything 'garden' makes me smile.


{Our weather has been rainy and overcast lately -- so the lighting isn't perfect.}

Things I've used --
TJMaxx {or someplace similar a few years back} -- place mats and white dishes
Tuesday Morning {a few years back} -- orange goblets
Michael's {this year 60% off} -- bunnies and chicks
Pier One {this year} salad plates, salt and pepper shakers, carrot scatters, and napkins
Pier One {last year} -- napkin rings


I added the butterflies on Saturday night -- 
I had to make those flowers last one more day!
