Don't Be Envious!

Green--a color I loved as a child, but as an adult...not so much. Until I went to a professional to have my colors done. Guess what? Turns out green is MY color! So, I have been introducing green to my life...a little at a time. Like my blog!

I hope you like green, and I hope you enjoy this tablescape!

Green and cream--I just love it!

The large plate and bowl are from Ross.

The other dishes came from Goodwill, purchased

at different stores and at different times. I think

the checkerboard plate adds some whimsy!

To add to the whimsical vibe, musical frogs!

This topiary had a brown basket. I think

it looks much better painted ivory.

Yes, these are my go-to Dollar Tree goblets...again.

Delusions of Spring!

Spring is still far off here in Colorado (we get more snow in March than any other month), but I can pretend! Even though we still have snow on the ground from weeks ago, I wanted to create a tablescape with my favorite spring color--purple!

When I couldn't find what I wanted for this tablescape, I had to get creative. You'll see!

I wasn't planning on using anything under these purple chargers, but I wanted more contrast. I wound up buying these natural placemats at Pier One and painting them white.

I found the container for my centerpiece on clearance at Ross. I already had the silk flowers and knew they would be perfect. I wanted a soft, romantic look. What do you think?

I made the napkin rings from picks I bought at Michael's.

The taupe plates and bowls came from Ross and the floral Laura Ashley bowls (my inspiration) were purchased from Goodwill.

I wanted my stemware to look spring-like, too. I purchased these wine glasses from Dollar Tree and painted the little blossoms on them in white and purple.







It's full spring ahead as far as I'm concerned! I hope wherever you are, there are signs of spring to celebrate!
