Mother's Day Table

Welcome to my Mother's Day Table. I am thankful to honor my Mom with this tribute to her on this special day.

I am using a blue and white stack of dishes for my table.

My mom's 1847 Rogers Daffodil pattern will be used one more time for this season.

The table topper has a beautiful delicate design of ivy vines, blue flowers, white flowers, and a few lady bugs and flying insects.

The small blue and white dish topping the stack simply say made in Japan.

The stemware is Fostoria Heritage blue tea glasses.

Mom was always the person I turned to for advice or support. Mom worked along side by Dad running two businesses for over 50 years. I have so much of her in my heart.

Thanks for stopping by for my Mother's Day Table - Judy.

An Easter Table and Easy Centerpiece

These rabbits have hopped right up to the table to become the main attraction in an Easter centerpiece.

The rabbit in the center holds azaleas blooms from our yard.

I love spring flowers and blooming shrubs so when our azaleas bloom, my heart sings a happy song.

Pink and white Bordallo Pinheiro cabbage dinnerware is layered on placemats that I just quilted using Moda fabric.

White chop plates also by Bordallo Pinheiro are used as a base for the pink plates and white bowls.

These Fitz and Floyd rabbits are sitting on a quilted table runner also made from Moda fabric.

I love the 1847 Rogers Daffodil pattern flatware. I try to use it for Easter or other spring tablescapes.

The flatware is such a treasure to me since it was a gift my Dad gave my Mom years ago.

You can see the blooming daffodils on the ends of the flatware pieces.

The pink goblets are Fostoria Heritage.

The centerpiece was super easy. I started with a cereal bowl for a little height then added a plate on top. Next a small berry wreath that I've had for years was placed on the plate. The rabbit vase was added in the center of the plate and secured with packing tape for stability. Green Easter grass was used to fill in the space around the rabbit. You might be wondering why I just didn't use a cake stand. I did try one but it was a bit higher than I wanted.

There you have it, an Easter table for four with an easy Rabbit centerpiece.

Mothers Day Tablescape and the Missing China

Thanks for stopping by to see my Mother's Day Tablescape. Take a look then I'll give you some details.

I'm using china that I have had for over 40 years but have never shared in a tablescape with you.

Here's why I have never shared them - I couldn't find them.

Yes, I have been looking for them since we moved to our house in Missouri almost nine years ago.

I couple of months ago, I kept telling my husband our wedding china must be in the storage room in some big box. My hunt began and I could find no box marked "wedding china" but while searching in a box marked "Christmas Dishes" low and behold, I found my wedding dishes. Sure enough, there was one layer of Christmas dishes but I dug a little deeper and there were the wedding dishes just waiting for me to find them.

The pattern is Blue Fantasy by Royal Court with blue roses and gray and green leaves. Each piece has a platinum rim; I know we don't see blue roses too much these days but I love the elegance of the pattern.

I must admit something to you! I didn't even pick the china out when I got married 42 years ago. I know that sounds strange since you know my love for dishes now. They were a gift from my grandmother.

I'm using my Daffodil pattern silverplate that I have shown you before. It was a gift to Mom from Dad; Dad was sweet enough to pass it on to me when Mom passed away. Here's a picture of my Mom when she was about 18 years old.

I think I get my love of tablescapes from Mom; she always had a beautiful table on Sundays, special events and every holiday.

The stemware is Waterford Crystal - Sparkle.

My centerpiece is one that I shared recently. It debuted on my mantel here then moved to my table here.

Thanks for stopping by to share my Mother's Day tablescape. I hope you will be enjoying Mother's Day with your family and friends - Judy.

Easter Naturals

Do you enjoy natural elements on the table?

My Easter tablescape features natural elements that remind me of a walk in the woods or along a garden path on a warm Spring day. Bring your basket in case you want to pick something!

I stopped in Pier 1 looking for a wreath for my daughter's Easter table and found the basket above and the nests below. I'll show you her wreath later.

I couldn't resist the nests with their natural look. I continued the natural elements with the woven chargers under the Fiesta bowl and plate.

The etched green stemware is a bit more elegant but works so well with the green eggs in the basket and nests. I used the same stemware on my Hoppy Easter tablescape seen here.

Green and yellow eggs plus dainty yellow, purple and hot pink flowers fill the nests and basket.

The three tumbling rabbits beneath the basket are Fitz and Floyd. The purple pansies they are holding bring a little more purple to the table.

The table is ready, now I'm just waiting for family to arrive.

I like extra purple napkins beneath the Fiesta bowl. It really makes the purple flowers in the baskets pop. My flatware belonged to my Mom and is the Daffodil Pattern by 1847 Rogers.

Susan over at BNOTP mentioned decorated cookies from Big Lots. I liked the ones she was featuring so I stopped in Big Lots in my area and found these cute decorated Easter baskets. Thanks for the tip Susan!!

My Easter Naturals table is topped off with green cloth napkins and wooden napkin rings. Two napkin choices must be better than one.

I hope you are planning an Easter celebration with your family or friends - Judy.
