Happy Tuesday Sweet Friends,
I hope you all had a lovely Easter
Celebration and lots of fun with
your loved ones...............
Have to say we had a lovely day
as well. It was a beautiful day but
it was a hot one....Everyone came
later in the afternoon as they were
with Megans family earlier in the
day......which works out nicely
for us, as we go to church then
come home and rest awhile
before the fun begins again.....
Thought I would show you our
Easter table today, while Easter
is still fresh in our minds......
next week everyone will be think-
ing about Mother's Day! lol

This years Easter table inspiration came
from these cute Robins egg blue (my fav
color) salad plates my daughter sent me
for my birthday.......then to solidify that
idea I ran across these adorable free
printables and tags from a very lovely
blog called Clean and Scentsible,
so they were the perfect addition. I
think they are just beautiful and that
Jenn is very talented. You will also
see her 8 x 10 printable when I show
you our living room shots on Thursday.

You want be disappointed I assure you!!
Then I needed to come up with a
centerpiece and I love these natural
looking faux eggs and would have
dozens of them if I could find
more...........lol and loved how
they looked on the small cake plate,
so swiped them off the sofa table
in the family room.
Then decided to use a white tablecloth
with these spring green placemats, since
the Happy Easter tags also had green in
them and the green looks great with
the blue too...........
Then decided to use the white
basket weave plates as they
show up so nicely on the
green..
Then just sorted started with the
cake plate and eggs and started
shopping the house for different
items that worked.
Was thinking of using some
beautiful peach colored glasses
my SIL Susan has, and she
brought them to me, but they
just seemed to steal the show,
and I was wanting to highlight
the blue for change, so decided
to go with the clear crystal
goblets instead. I have already
done a table with them just for
the fun of it, and used it for dinner
for hubby and I, last night..... so
will show you in the near future
sometime.
Lil darlings place.
Grabbed the bunny dish off the mantle
and a candle (that smells so yummy)
from the bedroom.
The bunny is new....I have wanted a
white bunny for awhile now, so had to
make a birthday return for something
that didn't fit and saw this bunny that
lights up, so hubby and I both liked
him, so brought him home, and he
was residing on the coffee table....
as you might remember....lol
added a matching plate for color and took
out some egg cups from the china hutch,
and of course, added some eggs. lol
A look from the opposite end
of the table..............
Found these pinky peach and
white carnations when I went
to the grocery store and decided
they might be a nice addition
as well.....cause who doesn't
love some fresh flowers.
Then added my lil hobnail bowls with
Easter M &M's and a candle to finish
off the vignette. Always gotta have
some candlelight for ambiance and
elegance...........
With Posterized affect
This has become my absolute favorite
silverware......it is a family pass down
from my hubbies side. It actually used
to belong to my hubbies cousin who
passed away from melanoma when
she was only 26 yrs. old. So it went
her Mother, to my late Mother-in-
law to my Sister-in-law Susan, and
the Susan gave it to me, which I
so appreciated. The pattern is very
similar to my baby spoon, that my
Mom gave me a long time ago.
FYI....you can click on any pic
