Tablescape Thursday has rolled around once again and I'm linking up with Between Naps on the Porch for this weekly event. Thanks Susan for hosting!

We have had such beautiful weather lately, I'm really in the mood for Spring and I am showing a "Think Spring" luncheon I hosted for some ladies last year. My colours were pastel shades of yellow, green and pink.
I created a centerpiece using a nest with eggs, real pussywillows, some faux green apples and hydrangeas in a glass bowl.
I purchased two sets of these Gibson dishes at the Canadian Superstore a few years back, one set in yellow, one in green. The green handled flatware was from a local Pharmasave store.
Each guest got to take home the little birdie beside her plate.
Place settings were marked by little pictures of each guest in plastic frames. 
We enjoyed mimosas while we waited for everyone to arrive.
For the appetizer, I made Mushroom with Wild Rice Soup.
For our entree, I made a cheese/pasta casserole with sundried tomatoes, a tossed salad with toasted pecans and balsamic vinaigrette dressing and a slice of homemade bread.
Dessert was a strawberry lemon parfait.
I hope I have you "Thinking Spring" too! Be sure to check out the other blogs linked to BNOTP for more ideas.
What a lovely table. I wish I could have been there. You fixed everything so nice, and I would have loved that little bird.

This is a note to Tooprettytotouch - I tried to email you or leave a note on your blog but it wouldn't let me.
ReplyDeleteWhen you click on the pics on my sidebar, they should take you to the post that I did on each one so you may have to scroll down a bit and see the other pics interspersed with the post. Hope that helps! (a couple of the pics don't have the "click on this to see more" and those won't work as I haven't done a post about them yet!) Thanks for looking!

I'm so glad you commented on my tablescape post. This is the first time I have visited your blog. It is such eye candy. I scrolled down and looked at a lot of the tablescapes. I can never think of what all little decorations to include other than dishes and serving ware. I am going to follow your blog and I know I will get tons of inspiration. Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYour table is just so lovely! I love your use of yellow and green with little pops of pink. How creative you are - I love your centerpiece! I may have to copy that idea! You paid so much attention to every little detail. I'm sure your guest were just thrilled to sit and such a lovely table and your food looks marvelous.
ReplyDeleteThank you for popping in to see me.
Be a sweetie,

I love the pink and green, it so lovely. And the little bird is such an expresion of spring.
ReplyDeleteNow I can hardly wait for just a hint of spring to arrive, it seems we have had such a long winter. And the picture of each guest is such a great idea I think I will use that at my next luncheon.
P.S. Thanks so much for visiting my blog.

ReplyDeleteHi, this is soooo beautiful! I think the whole table is glorious. I love how you stacked your plates and the finished look. The centerpiece is wonderful too with the green apples. What a great addition. I would not have thought of mixing fruit and flowers and yet this looks great.
