 I know that Easter eggs do not spiritually have anything to do with the Resurrection (Easter), but I like the colors and patterns.

"FUN AND FLOUNCY" Theme

"A good home must be made, not bought. In the end, it's not track lighting or a sunroom that brings light into a kitchen." ~ Joyce Maynard 

The debut of our April table setting.......

This fun table setting, with a touch of Easter, incorporates everything spring: pastel colors, bright colored plates, and glasses on top of striped place mats to complete the look. Instead of basic white plates, I opted for color and a touch of pattern.The upbeat pattern and colors keep the solid, traditional plates from looking too bland. I thought about placing plastic eggs or a flower in the bucket, but decided not to, in order for the prints/patterns to scream the theme. With the exception of the centerpiece, all other accessories have been featured in previous table settings. Also, just for the record, I know that easter eggs do not spiritually have anything to do with the Resurrection (Easter), but I like the colors and patterns. By the way, the plate behind the basket is a bright yellow.

Be blessed and share the rest!

"VINTAGE CHATEAU" Theme

“A single conversation across the table with a wise person is worth a month's study of books." ~ Kathleen Norris

The debut of our March table setting........

My inspiration was sparked by the towels - yes, those are dish towels (each one has a unique design) that I've placed on the black plates. Also, with the exception of the candle sticks, candle jars, cups, and marbles, all other accessories have been featured in previous table settings.

Have a safe and fun weekend.
