I springified the dining room chandy by adding a couple of apple blossom garlands ..... |
All the place settings are different....for this one I used a spring green transferware plate as the charger, then added a white plate, and topped it off with a lavender cut glass plate. |
I used matching plaid pastel place mats and plaid napkins on all four settings. I added one of my grandmothers pansy crochet pieces to this setting....just for whimsy! |
This place setting has a ironstone plate for the charger. It has a pretty spray of flowers in the center that show through the lavender cut glass plate. |
Here is the last place setting...all are different...but the spring theme brings them all together! |
I have a yellow butter dish on one end of the table and a pretty purple one on the other end.... |
This yellow depression pitcher and glass set belonged to my mother. |
The centerpiece for the table is a sweet bunny sitting on a cake plate. The little Easter basket to her right is a hand crocheted piece that has been heavily starched. |
This sweet hand painted bunny pull toy is sitting on the pass thru between the dining room and kitchen. |
Tea pot and cup set.... |
See the pretty ceramic picture sitting below the stained glass piece in the window? |
I found this hand painted ceramic tile picture a long time ago at a yard sale and fell in love with it. I thought it was a wonderful addition to my lavender and pastel theme for the dining room. |
I have deliberately ignored my Easter tree over in the corner of the dining room. This post was already long enough...and I wanted you to see all the decorations on my Easter tree...so I'll be back soon! http://www.bystephanielynn.com/2014/03/sunday-showcase-party-237.html http://www.ablossominglife.com/2014/03/frugal-crafty-home-blog-hop-66.html http://www.huckleberrylove.com/2014/03/much-ado-about-monday-no-50.html http://www.keepingitsimplecrafts.com/2014/03/st-patricks-day-round-up-mmm-215-block.html http://www.thegirlcreative.com/2014/03/09/sunday-best-link-party-3.html? http://www.alifeinbalance.net/motivation-monday-linky-party-82/ http://www.creatingreallyawesomefreethings.com/monday-funday-59-st-patricks-day-crafts/ http://www.flourmewithlove.com/2014/03/mix-it-up-monday_7396.html http://www.the-chicken-chick.com/2014/03/clever-chicks-blog-hop-77-with.html http://www.dwellings-theheartofyourhome.com/2014/03/amaze-me-Monday-amazing-linky-parties-.html http://www.sewcando.com/2014/03/come-link-up-its-craftastic-monday-link.html http://www.thisgalcooks.com/2014/03/09/marvelous-mondays-89-boozy-st-pattys-recipes/ http://sundayview.blogspot.com/ http://www.clairejustineoxox.com/2014/03/1003-creative-mondays-blog-hop-and-this.html http://www.create-with-joy.com/2014/03/inspire-me-monday-week-114.html http://www.yourhomebasedmom.com/motivation-monday-linky-party/ http://bakinginpyjamas.com/ http://www.twiggstudios.com/2014/03/our-sunday-best-showcase-linky-party_9.html http://diyshowoff.com/2014/03/09/diy-party-6/ http://www.dreamalittlebigger.com/post/link-lump-29.html http://www.titicrafty.com/2014/03/bewitch-me-titi-link-party-link-party-46.html http://denisedesigned.com/2014/03/08/share-sunday-18/ http://www.flamingotoes.com/2014/03/think-pink-sunday-155/? http://www.lifeonlakeshoredrive.com/2014/03/a-bouquet-of-talent-linky-party-79.html http://thetablescaper.blogspot.com/2014/03/kick-up-your-wedding-china-seasonal.html http://www.pinkwhen.com/diy-sunday-showcase-38favs/2/ http://sparklesandastove.com/favorite-things-saturday-4-features/ http://thoughtsfromalice.blogspot.com/2014/03/sundays-at-home-no-2.html http://www.bedifferentactnormal.com/2014/03/show-tell-saturday-030814.html http://www.classyclutter.net/2014/03/spotlight-saturday-link-party-44.html http://bowdabrablog.com/2014/03/08/bowdabra-saturday-crafty-showcase/ http://too-much-time.com/2014/03/get-schooled-saturday-117.html http://sewlicioushomedecor.com/saturday-showlicious-craft-recipe-showcase-5/? http://simplygloria.com/show-stopper-saturday-link-party-featuring-cupcakes/ http://www.reasonstoskipthehousework.com/skip-housework-saturday-4 http://piecedpastimes.blogspot.com/2014/03/saturday-sparks-link-party-53.html http://oksanalikesit.blogspot.com/2014/03/handmade-cafe-12-features-12.html http://www.cheeriosandlattes.com/saturday-show-tell-101/ http://www.ducksnarow.com/2014/03/happiness-is-homemade-link-party.html? http://www.sixsistersstuff.com/2014/03/strut-your-stuff-saturday-link-party-week-137.html http://angelshomestead.com/shine-a-spotlight-saturday-9/ http://iamonly1woman.blogspot.com/2014/03/check-me-out-saturday-linky-party.html http://alittleclaireification.com/2014/03/07/spinach-artichoke-chicken-pasta-bake-more-best-of-the-weekend-party http://www.madefrompinterest.net/2014/03/super-saturday-link-party-34/ http://tatertotsandjello.com/2014/03/link-party-palooza-barn-owl-primitives-giveaway.html http://www.natashainoz.com/2014/03/say-gday-saturday-linky-party-my-top-5.html http://lambaround.blogspot.com/2014/03/share-your-favorite-blog-posts.html http://maleviksrosentradgard.blogspot.com/2014/03/saturday-show-off.html http://what-about.co/show-friday-91/? http://www.atkinsondrive.com/pinworthy-projects-link-party-28/ http://deborahjeansdandelionhouse.blogspot.com/2014/03/farmgirl-friday-blog-hop-148-and.html http://www.dearcreatives.com/inspiration-spotlight-crafts-party-linkup-83-crafts-recipes-diy-decor-more/ http://chiconashoestringdecorating.blogspot.com/2014/03/flaunt-it-friday-196.html http://www.trulylovelyblog.net/2014/03/fancy-this-fridays-166-and-features/ http://www.thecottagemarket.com/2014/03/fabulous-diy-projects-plus-linky-party-junkin-joe.html http://www.dianarambles.com/2014/03/pin-me-linky-party-75.html http://whipperberry.com/2014/03/party-bunch-link-party-20.html http://practicallyfunctional.com/creativity-unleashed-link-party-10/ http://bacontimewiththehungryhypo.blogspot.com/2014/03/anything-goes-linky-144-creative.html http://missmustardseed.com/2014/03/furniture-feature-friday-8/ http://www.lizmarieblog.com/2014/03/inspire-please-linky-party-51/ http://shabbynest.blogspot.com/2014/03/frugal-friday.html http://colorincoloradoblog.blogspot.com/2014/03/finde-frugal-21.html http://romantichome.blogspot.com/

Oh, Your bunnies are so sweet, Penny. I think all of us are so anxious for Spring this year! It is because, for most of us it has been a long, miserable winter. Enjoy those bunnies! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteHow festive; it doesn't matter how early you get in the mood. That's just a matter of preference. I just love it. Mariana
ReplyDeleteEverything is so cute. I adore the pansy doily!
ReplyDeleteDa te già è Pasqua!Tutto bello e primaverile!Baci,Rosetta
ReplyDeleteI want to come to your house for easter breakfast! everything looks so sweet!
ReplyDeletexoxo
vivian
L.O.V.E it all! So pretty!!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove your Easter table all the fun colors and pretty bunnies are just perfect....
ReplyDeleteSmiles~
Mari
Very pretty table scape and I especially love the pitcher and glasses from your Mom. Penny you have the eye for detail, and I'm in love with the painted ceramic framed picture!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness...everything is so beautiful and full of sweet memories!!! I absolutely adore Easter and all of the beautiful colors you have on your table....just beautiful Penny!
ReplyDeleteOh..Penny, i'm always enchanted to see your gorgeous tablescapes! Spring touches, easter touches, lovely bunnies...just adorable!
ReplyDeleteKisses
Alessandra
Penny, can I say I am in love... Your decorating just tantalizes my eyes.. I am going gaga !! If this doesn't instill the desire to decorate, nothing does. Can I come and stay ??LOL hugs and love Kathleen
ReplyDeletePenny, your tablescape as usual is just breathtaking! In your spare time (ha,ha) can you please tell us just how you organize all your beautiful things, and your linens, is it by color, season or - - can't wait to see your tree. Your posts are never, ever too long!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are right! We of great minds do think alike! Your lavender is stunning! I have never collected it before so mine will be sparce..but you can bet I have my eyes open wide looking for more! Your table is just simply wonderful! No one but you could accomplish something like that. *extremely heavy sigh* :) (I enlarge every single picture and absorb the details like a starving person with their first chocolate cake!) Oh, okay, so I get a bit dramatic! LOL
ReplyDeletePenny, you need a shop or two to decorate!!Love that you take so much care with your decorations!
ReplyDeleteYour house always looks like eye candy to me! I love it all! If I had all your beautiful Easter decorations, I would show them off early too!
ReplyDeleteBlessings My Friend,
I love all the different place settings! I think my favorite is the one with the lavender cut glass plate! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty. I like how you used different dishes at each place setting and how it all works so well together. I have to say, that my most favorite part of this beautiful tablescape is your grand-mother's incredible pansy crochet. I'm always drawn to pansies because they are my favorite flower.
ReplyDeleteThis is a spring delight -- we're so ready here in Michigan, looking out at the piles of snow. I, too, was going to wait a little, but I did start bringing out some spring things just today. Love, love that lavender cut glass, it's gorgeous. I love to decorate for spring b/c I love pastels. Yours are so pretty! I hope we get to see the tree close up!
ReplyDeleteOh, Thank you so much for this lovely and lively breath of Spring......not too much longer to wait.
ReplyDeleteI especially luv the tile picute of lilacs =breathtaking! I also am a big fan of anything in lavender blue to pastel purple color range; just makes me feel peaceful and light hearted to look at your tablescape. Can't wait for the TREE!! YIPPEE!!
what a beautiful display! A wonderful way to welcome spring and Easter too .Thank you for sharing your sweet blog at the Thursday Favorite Things blog hop ♥
ReplyDeleteOh my Word, this gorgeous table screams SPRINGggggg!!!!!! I love all the fun and cute bunnies all over. I love those pretty glass dishes and stems. Beautiful! Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteFABBY
Love, love, love all your dishes! The purple set is gorgeous, the yellow depression set is too, and well...I love it all! The little bunny is perfect to welcome in spring. I especially love the way all the colors blend, so soft and beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteVery cute. I'm so ready for spring!
ReplyDeleteShannon ~ bohemianjunktion.com
This looks lovely. I am so ready for Spring!
ReplyDeleteI love your Easter table! I've started early too. I think it's because it's been such a long, cold winter this season. We've had snow on the ground since Christmas! It started to melt a bit a few days ago and I actually saw the grass in our backyard for the first time in a long time!! Yay! I'm really looking forward to spring!! I absolutely love those lavender Easter eggs. So pretty. Thanks for sharing and have a lovely week!
ReplyDeleteKathleen
May I please come and dine with you and that absolutely lovely room? After such a cold winter it is doing my heart good to see all that pastel loveliness!
ReplyDeleteLinda
Beautiful Penny, every time I stop by I want to swap houses :) love your home...
ReplyDeleteYour tablescape is absolutely charming and whimsical! Love it! I am delighted that you shared with Home and Garden Thursday,
ReplyDeleteKathy
So cute Penny. Now I need to get out the Easter decorations.
ReplyDeleteWonderful table!
ReplyDeletePenny, your Spring and Easter posts were SO fabulous this week I couldn't choose my favorites between them!
ReplyDeleteSo - congratulations - you are one of my featured guests this week at Inspire Me Monday at Create With Joy and - while I do my best to "spread the love" among my guests - I ended up sharing several of your photos because - in the midst of my loss - they reminded me of my mom who SO loved to decorate and they truly brought joy to my heart!
Have a wondrous week!
Penny! Hope all is well with you. Wonderful Spring & Easter tablescape you've put together with all the beautiful things in your home. Just terrific. Wanted to let you know that we have a Merrymakers section on Simply BeBetsy that is perfect for your entertaining ideas. Check it out when you can we think you'll love it! Nice to see you again and best to you, Sharon and Denise
