Easter Tablescape

It’s almost Easter!  Time for a new tablescape!  I love doing these.  They brighten up the dining area & with a plate change, the whole table looks different.  Using the Easter place mats that I made, I created 2 looks using  the patterned side.  I thought I’d share them with you.

St. Patrick’s Day Tablescape

St. Patrick’s Day is almost here.  It’s time to decorate for another holiday!  I love decorating for the holidays.  This tablescape was so much fun to make.  Like I’ve said before, I can see a project finished in my mind’s eye.  This one took me on a search for a Leprechaun.  It all came together when I stopped at Michaels Arts & Crafts store.

It was so much fun searching for the fabrics that I wanted.  (I found these at JoAnn Fabrics)  Naturally, since I’m a sewer, I had to make some reversible placemats (which I’ll show you how to make in the next post).  And the St. Patrick’s Day Centerpiece is one that I just fell in love with.

I like having two looks,  a patterned side & a solid side.

I chose clear plates for this side so the ‘Kiss Me, I’m Irish’ ribbon would show through.

Add some favors for fun.

                        

Add some ‘coin’ scatter to finish it off.

As usual, I’ll be showing you how to make the placemats, the centerpiece & the candle that’s in the background.

Hope you enjoyed seeing this as much as I enjoyed making it.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone!
