Happy Tuesday, My Everyday Friends.
 
I thought I would share one of my favorite
 
Tablescapes I did a few years ago.  It’s still a 
 
favorite of mine, even now.  I may even pull
 
a few of these ideas from this tablescape
 
to inspire me this year.  
 
Do you also do that?
 
Use some older ideas and build on them?
 
Here is my
 
Paisley and Pink Spring Tablescape
 
Paisley and Pink Spring Tablescape - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
 
I hope you enjoy it… again!  🙂

If I were honest with myself (and you) –
 
the title of this blog would be
 
Tablescape Gone Wrong!
 
or, maybe –
 
The Art of Compromise Tablescape.
 
But, Easter Parade in Paisley and Pink
 
sounds so much prettier, huh?  🙂
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
Folks, its been a long time since I tablescaped.
 
I remembered the excitement and thrill of the
 
planning and then finally – the execution of that plan. 
 
Polishing the silver, shining the stemware,
pulling out all the plates.
 
But, my “mental plan” was NOWHERE near my
 
“executed” plan.  
 
The plates I had envisioned were too large.
 
I was missing one of the six chargers I wanted to use.
 
The flowers I envisioned could not be found.
 
 
(fresh white tulips)
 
So, I went with the flow,  and started pulling from
 
 
here and there.  So – instead of 
 
 “Khaki Paisley with White and a Hint of Pink” –
 
I present to you….
 
“A Girly Explosion of Pink with a 
Hint of White!”
 
🙂
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
This Tablescape journey started out with the purchase
 
of a $14.99 tablecloth I fell in love with at Marshall’s. 
 
 It was Khaki and White and could not possibly
 
 be more beautiful paired with my new checked chairs.
 
That got the design wheels turning in my mind. 
 
 I imagined my black and white toile Bunny plates 
 
with my pink and white Staffordshire plates.
 
Skip ahead a few thousand design ideas …
 
I ended up using some older pink ruffled dishes
 
which I forgot I even had.  🙂
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
 I placed the ruffled pink bowl and salad plate on a
 
 pink and white Staffordshire plate, using a large
 
 Bordallo Pinheiro cabbage plate as a base. 
 
(wouldn’t it be funny to know how many Bloggers own these
cabbage plates?)  🙂
 
But, one of the things I Iove the most are the new
 
 
chargers that I found at Pier 1.

Look at these beauties!
 
I refuse to spend a lot of money on any one item for a
 
specific Tablescape, but I knew when I saw these they were
 
coming home with me.

You’re probably getting tired of seeing this same ole’
 
centerpiece container.  But, I tell you it just seems to
 
work with everything.
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
Everything I used I already had on hand.
 
A cute faux boxwood bunny for the center….
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
Some pretty ceramic eggs….
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
Some pink, silk Hydrangeas and some colorful feathers.
 
(the cats have had a field day with these feathers, btw)
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
Some pink cherry blossom stems and smaller crackled
 
 eggs completed this arrangement.
 
I added the globes to my vintage candlesticks.
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
I only had shorter candles, so easy peasy –
 
I filled the base with moss.  Problem solved!
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
As an homage to my Farm girl roots, I used simple white
 
Italian pitchers with white eggs.  I added one on each end of
 
the table.  (my touch of white)  🙂
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
Pink glasses purchased in England, and antique stemware
 
inherited from The Hubb’s grandmother.
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
I love these glasses.  I originally purchased 18 but sadly 
 
lost half of them when we moved back to the States.
 
So that’s the “bones” of the Tablescape….
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
Well – bones and a few “oops.”
 
Do you see what I saw once the pictures had been painfully
 
taken and edited?
 
Wrong silverware placement!  Yep, I did it!
 
I so hope the Silverware Placement Police doesn’t
 
 show up at my door tonight.  eek!  🙂
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
The Hubb’s commented that it was “pretty”
 
 
albeit a little pink. 🙂
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
I envision me and Miss Caitlyn, sweet grand baby –
 
setting up a similar tables together.
 
I am happy I will have a granddaughter to pass all
 
of this “pink” along to.
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
 I will add that although it comes across as a “pink
 
 
explosion,” it really is pretty surrounded by the neutral
 
khaki walls and pulls out the pink and white Staffordshire
 
plates showcased on the wall.
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
My grandson, Roo,  was a big help to me and tested the
 
dishes to make sure they were, indeed, more than pretty
 
but they were also useful.  🙂
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
By the way, this is what he does when I take a pic.
 
He says “cheeeeese.”  
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
And he insisted (no really he INSISTED!)
 
that he add his own “stemware” to the Tablescape.
 
I think it’s beautiful.
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
After all is said and done, it made me remember
 
 
how much I love to Tablescape.
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com
 
But, its not a matter of simply
 
throwing a bunch of dishes and glasses on the table.
 
There is gathering and planning.
 
And in my case, when the plan doesn’t work out –
 
there is compromising.
 
 
Spring Tablescape in Paisley and Pink - The Everyday Home - www.everydayhomeblog.com 
And when that doesn’t work out, there is Plan C.
 
Panic.  
🙂
 
But, in the end – you simply light the candles, step back –
 
and hope your camera can tell the story of a Tablescape
 
that started out as one design – but ended up with
 
an entirely different look and feel.

And that’s okay, too.

    I think your tablescape is wonderful! I REALLY love your new tablecloth. And those chargers, oh how many times I picked them up there only to put them back (daughter gets married in summer, all my money going to the planning of it, it would seem.)

    So, I can live tablescaping vicariously though YOU. Thank you for the inspiration!!
