Spring Tablescape

 

I want to give this centerpiece every excuse to stay around as long as possible! Please join me for a look at what I pulled together…

I visited Silks-a-Bloom here in Little Rock a few weeks back and they had put together a tablescape on a bed of sheet moss of all things! I figured if they could get away with that then I could use grapevine wreaths as chargers. Not nearly as messy!
I have a thing for dinnerware and serving pieces. And I like to mix and match them.
The cloth is 2 yards of fabric I got about four years ago. I was going to recover my breakfast nook chairs but didn’t have the heart to cut it. That fabric has been used all over my house and in my presentations. Love it!
I also like using the tidbit sized bowls – perfect for a small cup of soup. Sometimes I will bake individual desserts or dips in them as well. Very handy!
This flatware is beautiful and feels so nice in your hand! It is based on an antique design – LOVE.
Aren’t these tiny lanterns so stinking cute!

I hope you have enjoyed my spring tablescape. Now I need to have some folks over to enjoy it!

What unusual items have you used in your tablescapes?

Happy entertaining!

    Such a pretty, creative table! I love those tidbit bowls, especially. I was in Little Rock (where I grew up) just recently and got to play with my mother’s dishes — so fun!

    Great centerpiece! Love that brown polka dot tablecloth too. The mix-matching of the dishes looks so pretty against the brown background. Wonderful to use those wreaths as chargers!

    Love the chocolate brown and blue/green color scheme! I have a SLAT candleholder like that, although mine is probably 6 years old, so not sure if it totally the same, but I totally need to do something with it like this. Love to see all of your ideas!

    Hi. Wonderful setting. I like the combo of aqua, turquise and brown. That looks always great.
