~Blue Platters & Bunnies~


It's Tablescape Thursday, hosted by Susan at Between Naps on the Porch. For delightful tablescapes all around blogdom, click this Link, beginning Wednesday, after 10:00 PM (eastern).
Gollum, the gracious and talented writer of Designs by Gollum, recently hosted a giveaway. I was excited to learn I won the above book, Tablescapes, Setting the Table With Style, by Kimberly Schlegel Whitman. Tablescapes is chock full of wonderful ideas for setting beautiful tables. For more inspiration, visit Kimberly, here.While visiting Raised in Cotton, last week, I came across the most beautiful blue platters. I ordered four, to be used as chargers. They arrived quickly, packed beautifully, with a pretty surprise included. Thanks Carol!
The platters, a rabbit sandwich tray, in Spode Woodland, French Countryside dinner plates and stemware (I don't recall the pattern) from Mikasa, brown salad plates (Target), napkin rings and flatware (Target), napkins in a brown and cream toile, from Marshall's and bowls by Lenox are among the elements used for this Tablescape Thursday table setting.
I found the vintage crochet table cloth, at a garage sale, several years ago. The cost, $5.
Four votive cups and a stemmed votive holder, from Michael's after Christmas, Lenox leaf dishes (holding votives), shell hearts(just for fun) from Pier One, and bunnies purchased at Hancock Fabric, complete the tablescape.
