Easter Tablescape 2013


Easter 2013
 
Hello, everyone!  Do you remember the rabbit on Alice In Wonderland who say’s I’m late, I’m late….?  That’s how I feel!  Last week I shared some Easter table inspiration with you because I just couldn’t decided what to do!  Well, I just finished about 15 minutes ago!! 
 
Easter Table 2013
 
I decided to go with a little rustic theme…after about 4 other themes!  Awhile back, I purchased a basket from Goodwill.
 
Pottery Barn inspired Moss Basket
 
As soon as I saw it, I envisioned a moss basket similar to the one that Pottery Barn sells.  I purchased some sheet moss at Wal-Mart.  I really needed another pack but they only had one left but I improvised!

In addition to the sheet moss, I used some regular moss…I think it’s called reindeer moss.
 
Moss Basket for Easter Table 2013

In the back half of the basket, I inserted a glass vase that holds a mixture of fresh flowers and faux greenery. I used the Spring is Here sign, which is from the Dollar Tree, along with some carrots, burlap ribbon and plastic eggs. For Easter, I plan on removing these and using real boiled eggs.

In keeping with the rustic look, I used a burlap runner with rattan chargers.  White dinner plates are topped with Bordello carrot salad plates.  Pretty floral napkins add a little more color and pattern to the table.  The tea glass is from Gorham and the purple glasses are from Old Time Pottery.  I removed the lids of the little cabbage bowls and added a pillar candle for a little ambience!

1847 Rogers Daffodil flatware
 
1847 Rogers flatware in the Daffodil pattern is always on my Easter table!  Over the years, I’ve compiled about 24 place settings along with quite a few serving pieces.

  2. What's that they say: "Better late than never!" So it's OK! It's OK!!! Your timing is perfect, and you have created a beautiful table as a result of the time you put into it! I love the little bunny holding the salt & pepper shakers! He's so cute the way he has them all hugged up and peering out as if to say, "Guess what I've got?" :-) You did a FANTASTIC job on the centerpiece basket!!! Wow, Tammy...that's really great! I was just looking at that very same Pottery Barn photo this morning! You are quite talented to have created a basket from scratch that easily rivals any one of those in that ad!!! I like that you used 2 kinds of moss to lend depth and more texture.

    Your table is beautiful, and after all the time and hard work you put into it I hope you and your family are able to enjoy it this Easter weekend!

  4. I love the Daffodil flatware. I have a key ring that a purchased at a craft show last November made from a fork or soup spoon handle with this design. The handle is curved and hangs over the side of your purse, a belt loop or a wall hook. No more lost keys.

  9. So many things to like here I don't know where to begin. Since I'm crazy about stemware, I guess I have to begin with your amethyst stems that make everything else on the table shine. Good work!
