Easter Tablescape: Welcome to the 83rd Tablescape Thursday!

Tablescape Thursday:

I have two tablescapes going at the moment...one in the breakfast room and one out on the porch. They aren't quite ready for prime time, so tonight I thought I'd share a Spring tablescape I put together around this time last year.

Spring/Easter Tablescape, 2009:

Easter is just around the corner so I've been playing in the dishes again... :-)

It was a gorgeous day, the afternoon I put this tablescape together. I had all the doors to the porch thrown open, and if you enlarge this pic, you'll see the sheers on the porch billowing in and out in the breezes. Oh, how I love such a day as this! :-)

Ok, I know candles are really only supposed to be lit after dark...but this is Tablescape Land, and I'm breaking the rules. LOL Sorry...I do love candles, especially when they are from Colonial Candle. The only thing I purchased new for this tablescape were the blue bunny plates and the place card holders...

Bunny plates are from HomeGoods...

Dinner Plate is Butler's Pantry, Gourmet by Lenox

I've had these green glasses for years and about two years ago I came across the wine glasses at A Classy Flea for only $2.50 a stem. Don't they look like they were made for each other? :-)

Flatware is Napoleon Bee and is available online through Neiman Marcus...

When I found these "fancy" napkin rings at Macy's, I thought they would be perfect for a bridal shower or a ladies tea. But looking at them now, they sort of make me think of Easter lilies.

You can just see the place card holder over the napkin...

Place card holders came from Hobby Lobby...I filled them with Cadbury mini eggs...

Found these cute Fitz and Floyd Salt/Pepper shakers at Tuesday Morning.

Miss Bunny stole my heart last Easter when I found her in Marshalls...

She has some gifts for you!

Take a look at her sweet little face...

Don't you just love her? :-)


Remember these narcissus? You may recall, I started them a few weeks ago from bulbs...they filled the room this day with their sweet, sweet scent!

For Foodie Friday, I'm sharing these adorable cookies I found at Big Lots. They were priced $1.00 each, which I thought was very reasonable. When I got to the register, they rang up for only .10 cents each. I purchased all they had left...which were the four you see below:
An egg...

Cute little hatching chick...

A little lamb...

A bunny in overalls with a carrot...
I promise I did not take a bite out of his left foot during the creation of this tablescape. But, don't even ask what happened to all these critters, once I was done taking pics. :-)

Happy Foodie Friday! :-)

Bird's eye view...

Hope you enjoyed this little Easter/Spring tablescape...


Looking forward to seeing your beautiful tablescapes!
