Spring is the time when the world comes out of it's gray dormancy and life returns in all the shades of green! I truly love almost all greens and feel it is a neutral color whether in linens, dishes or even paint! It seems to blend with almost anything. So, I brought out the greens for the table! I kept the centerpiece very similar to last week but changed from the round basket to this green and white ceramic tray. I am using a favorite runner with shades of green and some brown on a white background.
The tray is bordered by a leaf motif.
I added some green nesting material to this nest.
This is the nest that the birds built in my wreath on the front door then abandoned. The 2 eggs in it are 2 of the 4 that she laid. So sad.
It is resting on this tiny metal pitcher.
My stack of dishes sit on a green and white placemat.
A little green bird is nesting in our bowls!
I told you about these tiny nests that I also like to use as napkin rings. When I found these at a store in Lancaster county I bought 8 and am so glad I did!
They are holding a white and a cut out green napkin.
I tried different flatware but decided on the brown bamboo to accent the brown in the runner.
I WISH I had green bubble glasses, but I used my clear ones. And the wire nest votive candles stayed on the table.
Some gardening implements and clay pots....
The bird S and P sit in a wire holder too.
You know me, I had to get some shadow shots:)
Thanks so much for your visit. I hope you are getting some nice, Spring weather! I bought some of my annuals for my pots on the patio yesterday and plan to do them today as it is supposed to get up to 72!!!
I will be sharing my table at these parties:

ReplyDeletePinky,
ReplyDeleteTotally charming centerpiece and Spring green tablescape, dear friend!!!
The leaf border tray provides an elegant trayscape for your centerpiece!!!
Love, LOVE, L O V E all the clay pots. . .especially the one with the "bee"!!!
I agree the choice of bamboo flatware adds a striking contrast!!!
In one of my Designer subscriptions, it was written . . ."all greens go together,
observe how the varying shades of green compliment each other in Nature."
Your Spring Green Tablescape is living proof!!! Nicely done!!!
Fondly,

Have a great weekend!
Oh so pretty Pinky! I love all the sweet birds and nests at your table. ♥ I stopped putting a wreath on our front door several years ago since the birds were constantly building nests and giving me a heart attack every time I opened the door :)
ReplyDeletePinky, I absolutely adore your creativity and that green tray is so unique. I have the little bids in a wire basket S & P shakers as well!
