I used a gold tablecloth and a gold sequined charger to start. I then added a Carolina Blue vase and ruffled place mats in the same shade. Dogwood is the state flower of North Carolina which you may remember from a table I did last year CLICK HERE TO SEE.
I used white plates with a Dogwood paper salad plate on top with matching place card holders. The pine cone salt shaker is for the state tree and the cardinal pepper shaker is for the state bird of NC.
On the mantle, I used blue candleholders with pink dogwood ornaments I found on clearance at Belk.

Lovely table setting. I will be very happy when we have some spring flowers out. Diane
The combination of gold and aqua is really pretty. I wouldn't have guessed those little dogwood plates to be made of paper.
How pretty, Jewel! I love the colors you put together. I couldn't even tell that those beautiful dogwood plates are paper...Christine
Very pretty. The blue and gold is always so pleasing to see. Your North Carolina table is stunning!! xo marlis
Oh, yes....dogwood! I think we chatted about this last year. It's North Carolina's state flower and Missouri's state tree. Oddly enough, we don't have even one dogwood tree in our yard! Note to self: Rectify that situation! :-) I love this with all the pretty Carolina blue! I know it was hard to put away the winter stuff (for me, too!), but Spring is almost here!!!!! Hooray!!!!
Great taste of Spring.

Jewel, I love the way you followed through on your State theme - even the salt and paper shakers are North Carolina related. This aqua blue is so pretty on the gold. I love any place setting on those ruffly place mats, but they are especially pretty in that color. What pretty paper plates. You could have fooled me. I thought they were china. laurie
Very pretty table. Carolina blue is my favorite since that's my native state! I love the paper plates too!
Very pretty table.i always love water related colours.very rich setting...:):):)
I like the layering of the cloth and the place mats. I wouldn't have thought that the square plates were paper either. Beautiful!
The turquoise blues with the dogwood are so beautiful. Lovely tablescape. Thanks for inviting us for a peak. Cherry Kay
