Lavender Purple & Sage Green Table for Four

Although this lavender and sage coloured tablescape was created for a recent spring dinner with my parents, I think the colours and items used could also lend themselves to a possible Mother's Day table. 

 

 

 

With that special occasion on the horizon, I'll show you the details which may inspire you to set a similar table for a memorable meal with mom.

 

I'm a big fan of repetition down the center of a table and this one started with just that.

 

I got three of these faux lavender in whitewashed pots at a local grocery store last year.

 

The sage green coloured pillar candles were part of a recent birthday gift from Mr. D.

 

Some white bunnies and birdies surround the center lavender and lend a springtime touch.

 

A light purple tablecloth, sage green tea-square cloth, white placemats and dark purple napkins add layers of colour to the table.

 

A faux nest and egg inside a purple compote dish provide the perfect placecard holder.

 

The dish stack consists of a grey faux wood grain charger along with sage green and white plates that I've had for years.

 

The pots of lavender were set on small square plates to give them more presence.

 

 

 

Candlelight is one of the simplest way to provide ambiance especially as the sun goes down.

 

I took these pics at the end of our meal once the dishes were cleared as I wanted to capture the atmosphere at the table as we lingered there enjoying our conversation by candlelight.

I served the following menu but of course, only managed to get a pic of the dessert.
Potato & Dill Chowder
Lettuce & Garden Veggies Salad
Scallops in Wine Sauce
Lemon Pepper Chicken
Jasmine Rice
Green Beans
Mud Pie with Raspberries

 

Do you think this tablescape could work for Mother's Day?

 

Or maybe next year's Easter table?

 

In my next post, I'll show you some close-ups of what is on the sideboard behind the table.

 

Thanks for visiting!
