Mud Pies and a Pink Garden Hose Spring Tablescape

I had so much fun creating this Spring tablescape.  
 It all began with getting to make mud pies....something I haven't done in years!      These mud pies are a little different than the ones I used to make as a child,   but I have to admit they were almost as messy.     I took a few pic's as I made them,   so I may do a small tutorial if anyone is interested.

I laid out the table in two different ways as I moved things around to get my photo's.

   This is the first one.......chairs are located in the corners of the table.

This way the chairs are side by side and across from each other.

I'll start my tour of the tablescape with the centerpiece.  
 I used a pink garden hose as the container for my floral design....the hose is available on Amazon....$20.      I filled the center of my hose with a shredded paper nest and a single egg shell.    I tucked faux silk roses and ferns around the nest and then added fresh cut blossoms from the front yard.

With so many "sweets" in the tablescape,   I decided to have a tea party.  

 I have a rose fairy and a fairy bunny hosting the party.   The hummingbird piece is actually a tea pot,   the little removable rose bud is the lid.    The flower buds sitting by the fairies on a leaf are the tea cups.

Place settings consist of a bunny plate.......pink lace cloth napkin with a tea cup napkin holder.......and a vintage water glass.

I have a paper bunny napkin an small fork to serve dessert.

This is the other style place setting where I used a different bunny plate.

The charger  is the plain white bunny plates that you have seen me use in many of my tablescapes.

Now for some close ups of my mud pies,   cakes,   and loaf cakes.

After I painted the styrofoam a dark brown dirt color,    I frosted with sheet moss,  and added dry flowers and fillers to the top of each creation.

I placed my round pieces of foam in small metal pie plates,   the rectangle pieces went into small loaf pans.

I placed my cake pieces on lacey pink metal dessert plates  and the three tiered cake went on a small pink
glass cake plate.
  On the far right side of the photo,  you can see how I put one of my metal pie plates on a pink ice cream dish.    I did this because I had several "desserts" that were low and I needed another one that was more the height of the tall three tiered cake.

Happy Spring Everyone!
