~~~Gardening at the Table~~~

I have gotten all of my gardening things out now and decided to do a table with that theme. We have been gardening like crazy for several weeks now and our labors are starting to show. ALL of the mulch is done, the beds are edged, new bushes and flowers are planted, the roses are BLOOMING!!! My heart is full!!!! I just HAPPEN to have a set of dishes with a gardening theme:):) Shocker, I know. Here is what I came up with. I got a new camera for Mother's day and I can tell a big difference in my pictures! Do you see that they are so much clearer and brighter? For some reason these came up in the wrong order? Not sure why but hope you enjoy:)
 There is alot of green at this table, which is calming to me. I think green is a great neautral.
 I used these topiaries cause the dishes have a topiary on them too.


 I use the watering can S and P all summer.
 I used 2 napkins gatherd with a simple ring and then placed the gardening set in the ring. These are actually place card holders but we know our places:):)

 The nest tealight holders are a favorite.
 A bee has landed on the topiary pot!

 My dinner dish is not Pfaltzgraff but the other pieces are.
 I placed some of the roses from our garden at our places, they smell heavenly!
 This one is called Princess Diana.






 I love this tiny watering can with the birds on it. I love anything with birds!

 My green handled flatware is back on the table and my white chargers.

  5. So it's not just me! I had gotten knocked off of a LOT of blogs as a subscriber - yours included - and have really had a tough time getting resubscribed to some so that I get an email notice. Even though I'm no longer getting the email notices, when I try to re-subscribe the thing says I'm already a subscriber. I don't know if I just need to unsubscribe and the resubscribe or what!!! So frustrating!!! I did get your notice via email this time, though, so signing up again worked. Hooray!

    This is a really fun table and a sign of the transitioning seasons. I really like those plates so much. Perfect for so many settings!

    I hope your week is starting off with a bang...in a good way! Take care!!!

  11. Beautiful...you have done the theme perfectly. Naturewood is on of the top all-time selling patterns of Pfaltzgraff, and I recently sold a set of it at my flea market.
