I love this table–the beautiful cyclamen in the tureen (Pfaltzgraff), the gorgeous salad plates (Villeroy and Boch Summerhouse), fantastic glassware (Fostoria American Brilliant footed iced tea glasses, Anchor Hocking Wexford goblets and Indiana Glass Colony Park Lane tall sherbets), the tiny bunny placecard holders (Williams Sonoma), the embroidered tablecloth (Vintage), and the sweet pewter lookContinue reading “Simply Elegant Easter Brunch Table”

An Apple a Day…
I found some of these bowls (MacIntosh by Pier 1) at the thrift store and I liked them so much that I filled out the set on ebay. These were the jumping off point for this table. The bowls have a blue rim, so I used some plates that have blue rings on them andContinue reading “An Apple a Day…”
Pretty in Pinks and Reds
I found a set of 8 Villeroy and Boch Portobello dinner plates on my recent thrifting adventure in Atlanta–and I don’t think that they have ever been used. Absolutely gorgeous condition. Anyway, they were the jumping off point for this table. I started with a red runner and lined up my white vases filled withContinue reading “Pretty in Pinks and Reds”
Trying a Terrarium
I found some big glass canisters at the thrift store and I’ve been dying to try making a terrarium. Of course I googled how to do it. I followed their advice and here are the steps: Start with a Large Glass Container. Add gravel to the bottom of the container to keep the plant rootsContinue reading “Trying a Terrarium”
Baby Shower for a Girl
Trying to put together a table with a lot of pink is pretty challenging for me because I am not a big fan of pink, but here we go. I reused the items from the Easter table, and added a bunny pitcher, some baby cups, pewter porringers, and some metal banks–a pig and an elephant.Continue reading “Baby Shower for a Girl”
Early Easter Table Version II
I also have these beautiful Mikasa Jolie Pasta Bowls, so I did a second version of the table with those.
Early Easter Table
I found some really pretty Royal Albert Everyday Friendship plates that were the jumping off point for this table. I started with a pretty vintage appliqued and embroidered runner and pull some Easter candies and some Martha Stewart bowl filler eggs into some apothecary jars. If I were doing this table for real, I wouldContinue reading “Early Easter Table”
Garden Party Table
I have some gorgeous Royal Stafford dinner plates–Sketchbook–right now until I sell them, and they were the jumping off point for this table. I started with a beautiful appliqued table runner in a great green color. I bought flowers at Trader Joe’s in the same colors as are on the plates and arranged them inContinue reading “Garden Party Table”
February Showers Bring Plenty of Flowers Part II
I had another idea for this table using some more items that I bought to sell. This time, the place settings take their nod from the napkin. I used Royal Stafford Victorian Calico Blue dinner plates and Blue Dynasty Salad plates. I like it. I love this centerpiece. And my husband, who normally doesn’t comment,Continue reading “February Showers Bring Plenty of Flowers Part II”
February Showers Bring Plenty of Flowers
The weather here has been pretty cold, windy, and dreary–which isn’t typical for us. I bought some cheery yellow flowers for Valentine’s Day and I promised you a table using the same flowers. I started the table with a beautiful vintage embroidered seersucker runner with daisies. Then I added a frog pitcher by Bordallo Pinheiro,Continue reading “February Showers Bring Plenty of Flowers”
