Spring Florals










We were enjoying the most beautiful weather, so setting a table for lunch outside was a priority. I still had peonies, stock and wax flowers from the shower, so creating a new floral arrangement was a cinch. . The Italian tablecloth mixed with floral antique plates created a springtime color treat for the eyes.. The turquoise napkins were made to look like flowers and floral brooches were placed in the center as favors for the guests. Special silverware, crystal, and compotes were pulled out of storage and enjoyed for the day. The colors, turquoise and hot pink, are a great combination with chartreuse and the deep purple of blackberries. They looked beautiful in the vintage chartreuse and turquoise compotes with "Love Disarmed" berry spoons.

Hi Susan -

This is one of the most beautiful table settings I have ever seen! I own the same tablecloth (which is French, btw - designed by Pierre Frey)...and I wish I had those antique plates. You have put together a simply gorgeous grouping. Thank you so much for sharing your great taste!

Best, Kate
