Need Some Simple Spring Tablescape Ideas?

I am always changing my tablescapes. I think it gives a renewed feeling to your home without changing EVERYTHING!

I love going to resale shops and picking up unique salad plates, cups, saucers, etc.  They are usually under $5.00 apiece and they make a HUGE impact on your table. When You have a solid color dinner plate and then a print salad plate it is a fun way to freshen up the table. I also use my white dinner plates and then just add color in the plants or fruit centerpieces. The options are endless!

I have to confess we don’t eat at the table all of the time due to our hectic schedules; but, the table is always ready~

This is our table at home…Always changing!

Great Example of the centerpiece being the color for the table

The yellow placemats and the burnt orange napkin rings help bring in the beautiful colors of the chairs I found at Pier 1 for this client.

This is an example of using a solid dinner plate and then adding a unique salad plate to spruce of the everyday plates and creates a fresh Spring tablescape. In this tablescape, the nests could also hold place markers too.

This is a fun example of mixing chargers, dinner plates & salad plates with then adding fun pink & green accents, to continue the color theme.

Finally, one of my all time favorites…I found this and I loved it so much I pinned it on Pinterest.

I loved the hobnail trimmed glass dinner plates, with the mix-matched tea cup & saucers as the accents. This is a fantastic example of how a collection of flea market or re-sale shopping finds, adds so much to your tablescapes. This makes your parties or everyday tables special & unique. Not to mention, the fantastic idea of the scrabble pieces as the place markers…LOVE IT!!!

{That is another thing you can find at the resale shops and flea markets. The scrabble games and other games are very inexpensive. I have pinned on Pinterest a few crafts with these pieces. This way, it is an inexpensive craft.}
