Hats Off to April....Tablescape Thursday




Or should I say one little yellow hat that I used for my centerpiece with fresh white mums






On top of a crisp white cloth I layered a yellow mat, white charger and yellow plate from Pottery Barn.
The yellow paisley napkin is from there as well as the indiv butter dishes, and the yellow chick candles.
The yellow egg ramekins are Target.

The etched stem wine glasses are antiques, from my mom, and the water glass from Dansk.
The scalloped salad bowls are from Home Goods.

The bunny pitcher is from Mikassa.

Photobucket

The little nests in the bowl are from Christmas Tree Shops. 1$..The little hat is from Dollar Tree.




For dinner we had filet mignon, baked potato and asparagus.

I found this pretty in pink paisley tablecloth at WmSonoma outlet, hope to use it in a TTH setting coming soon..:) I was just playing with this..not a tablescape yet!

    Kathleen, love both of the table settings. I've always been partial to paisley and both the yellow and pink patterns are delightful and very springy. ... How do you remember where you buy things? That's amazing to me.

    It's great to be able to click on the pictures and see everything.

    The filet looks very tasty.

    Hi Kathleen,.
    I am so glad I found your blog and yes you have the best hydrangeas. I think your table is just a beauty and all the layering of yellows is wonderful. I love the scalloped dishes and the napkins and the yellow cups. That tablecloth from the outlet store is really wonderful too. Have a good night. Cindy

    Hi Kathleen,
    Your comment has left me confused?
    What happened to Snowbell?
    I have seen the movie but did not read the book.

    Have a wonderful evening.

    Hi Kathleen,
    You are so sweet to offer to look for the Sealife napkin rings at PB. You are so fortunate to have an outlet close by. I too love, love, love WS and the closest outlet store in outside Atlanta. It's probably a good thing. However, I do most of my Christmas shopping there and have really found great deals on items they still carry in the store. Here is the link for the rings...http://www.potterybarn.com/products/p12636/index.cfm?pkey=gthmnewten.
    Your Easter tablescape is so beautiful. The yellow is so fun and cheerful. The little egg shaped ramekins from Target are darling....I somehow missed them at my local Target!!!
    Thank you for your comment and vist to our blog. I look forward to visiting yours again.
