Tablescape Thursday - Easter Table

Happy Fun Day Sweet Friends,

So how are ya today???

Doing better than a cat in a croaker sack???

 Sure hope so....those croaker sacks can

get pretty itchy!!  lol

Thought I would show you our Easter

table.  This is always the most fun

part of the preparations for me.

I really didn't plan on using daisies,  really poms,

but they look like daisies, I was thinking of maybe 

green hydrangeas but you'll see how it turned out to be 

daisies later!

When I bought these napkins years back,  they only had

4 napkins but then they had kitchen towels that matched, 

so I bought those thinking I would make them into napkins,

but just never did!!  So I used 2 towels for the center

of the table to add some color, along with the flowers, 

some Easter eggs, and my 2 lil bunny figurines,

 which you will see later too!

Here I was just starting out with the green

place mats and a my romantic plates, as I call them,

This is gonna be a guys placesetting.

Used the towels for the girls placesettings,

Just draped the towel over the plate and

tucked it under a little bit.

Then added a salad bowl of my wedding china.

Then added a fruit bowl.

As I am sure you can tell I am in process here!

Here you can see my bunny figurines,  at least the girl bunny,

and part of the boy!!  lol

Decided to do something different with the silverware,

so tied it with pretty organdy bows.  Just happened

to have 4 scrap pcs. of ribbon so did this for all

the girl's places.

I also decided to not use the bowls, but a bread plates

instead, and peach glasses for the girls.

Susan my SIL loaned me these pretty peachy pink glasses.

There were 2 different ones, that I used,  mainly cause

I couldn't make up my mind if I wanted to use the peach

or just use clear,  so at the last minute I decided to 

use peach for the girls and clear for the guys,  and I

only had 2 of each glasses,  just to try them,  so just

decided to use 2 different ones, and it looked great!

These lil green packets have candy in them,  of course!!

When I was trying to figure out how to make the lil candy 

packets, the least expensive thing I could find in the color
 I needed was tissue paper,  so then I found these

cut lil stick on daisies.  That was the deciding factor

for the flowers as well.  Dee got the flowers for me!!

These were the other peach glasses,  both of
 the glasses belonged to my late Mother in law.

A close up of the cute lil daisies!!

Don't you just love all those lil scrapbooking 

embellishments,

you can do all sorts of neat things with them!!

View from one end of the table.

and this view is from the other end!

This is one of the guy placesettings.

I put the napkin and silverware above the plate

for something different, and put there candy

bag in the center of the plate.

Added a candle at each plate for the guys!

I only put one daisy on the guys to try and make

it not quite so fru fruey!! 

Impossible!! lol

These tiny lil candleholders came with candles

in them, but once they burned down  you

can't find anything to fit in there,  so tealights

will fit at the top of them, but want go down

any further,  so kept trying to figure out what

I could put in there to add some color,  and

I thought of jelly beans but I didn't have enough,

so finally I remembered I had one pc. of green

tissue paper left , so decided to stuff tissue

paper in the bottom, since it matched with

the candy bags,  so it worked fine!

Here is the completed guys place setting!

These were Easter candles I got last year,  so just

stuck them in another candleholder cause we

need some candlelight even if it is in the daytime!!

Just a nice touch!!

My new bunny bowls from my friend Diane, were
 pressed into service to hold some sour cream!

Egg cups for the butter!

I just love these colors I have to say,  they make

my heart sing!!

Hope you enjoyed your visit......
