An Easter Tablescape Thursday

Hurray! It's Tablescape Thursday hosted by Susan at BETWEEN NAPS ON THE PORCH. Be sure and visit her blog to see all the great tables!

This is my Easter Table from last year.

I used blue melamine (if you remember the Breakfast at Tiffany's Sweet 16 Birthday Party - this is the same stuff!) I placed it on golden chargers to dress it up a bit and added an Easter spreader beside each butter dish. The Easter egg utensil holders were from Target and the stemware was a Christmas present from my daughters. Don't they have good taste?

Here is a close up of a place setting.

And the centerpiece before I added the Easter wrapped chocolate candy.

I have a different Easter table in mind for this year. Stay tuned for it on a Future Tablescape Thursday.

I can't wait to see everyone else's tables at BETWEEN NAPS ON THE PORCH ! :D Jewel

Love the turquoise -- the Easter Egg utensil holders are novel, wouldn't be hard to make, would they?

I want to mention the lace on the backs of your DR chairs -- it's so dear.
