I started with a pale yellow tablecloth I have had for years. If you look closely, you will see it is embossed with flowers and butterflies. Perfect with the dishes I bought some time ago at a thrift store for 25 cents each.
Each of the four salad plates is decorated with different flowers and butterflies.
Each of the four salad plates is decorated with different flowers and butterflies.
Each place setting has a frilly charger found at Michael's a few weeks ago, green dinner plate from the Dollar Tree with a matching coffee mug, and new flatware from Bed Bath & Beyond that Mr. B, aka, The Enabler, told me I had to buy them because the set was so pretty and I kept going back to it.
The green butterfly bowls were purchased a few years ago from Michael's. I last used them on a table 2 years ago. You can see that table here.
I wanted something different for the napkins and the butterfly napkin rings and found this wonderful bag napkin fold tutorial here
Very easy and so fun! I could see using it on an Easter table, filled with jelly beans or a chocolate bunny! The butterfly looks like it is just emerging from it's cocoon, doesn't it?
On one of my trips to Michael's I was so happy to find the new limited edition Spring Green Ball jars!
So perfect for a table set in Spring colors! Filled with a few bright yellow daffodils and there is my centerpiece!
A couple of white birds and the table is set.

Lovely!! Happy Spring, Kathe! :)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, Kathe. I think you should be feeling very Springy with this tablescape.. Love those chargers... Cathy
ReplyDeleteBeautifully spring like - and very appetising! Wonder what was going to be served>
ReplyDeleteI bought the same charger! Love your thrifted plates :)
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely! It is so fresh looking too. I love that it isn't over done, I love the bright green colour and I LOVE the green Mason jars you used a vases for the daffodils!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great napkin fold, Kathe!!! You could take that to the edge and back!!! Neat!
ReplyDeleteYou got those dishes for 25 cents apiece?!??!!! What a great buy! And perfect for Spring and Summer!!!
I bought those same chargers at Michael's. Problem was that they didn't have very many of them. Bummer! They should have known that would be a huge seller and stocked accordingly. I have several Michael's stores within 20 miles of our house, so I'll keep checking back at all of them in hopes of getting the 24 chargers I'd like to have in my inventory. All I have is 6...or 8...I forget. At any rate, it's not enough!!! :-)
Pretty, pretty, pretty! Happy Spring!
Oh, you know I love all the green! Gorgeous table, Kathe. I need to find some of the green Mason jars, before they are all gone. The butterfly bowls are adorable.
ReplyDeleteI love your spring green stuff. You must have a tone of dishes!
ReplyDeleteI love the green with pops of yellow! SO pretty! The green ball jars haven't made it here yet, I'm looking!
ReplyDeletePretty chargers from Michael's? Haven't seen those, but I have the ones from Ikea, so I will resist!
Adorable butterfly bowls, Kathe!
Your spring is just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove the green.
Thanks for sharing.
Hope to see you on my blog :)
So so pretty Kathe, I love the green Ball jars, I have been trying not to buy them :)

Your table is dressed beautifully for spring! I love those plates you got for a quarter each! They sing "Spring!"
ReplyDeleteThis tablescape is absolute perfection Kathe! Love those butterfly dishes!
ReplyDeleteKathe I love this table! The green and yellow and butterflies makes me so happy! Love those chargers! I still haven't gotten the green jars, hope I can find them when I return home! You did a sweet job on this table and the 'enabler' was right, you had to have that flatware!!!
ReplyDeleteBig Hugs, Linda
I love this table, Kathe - especially the butterfly bowls and the little white birds! Sooo Spring-y :)
ReplyDeleteI am loving bright green right now too. So cheerful! Love the butterfly/napkin -darling! And different. Think your idea to use it for a bunny nest or other treat is excellent. What would we do without the Dollar Tree? Enjoyed your lovely table scape. Happy SYC Thursday!
ReplyDeleteI love your spring table! That tablecloth is perfect- love the flowers and butterflies on it. What a deal you got on those dishes! The napkin is so cute. Love the idea- I'll have to look at how to make it! Kudos to hubby for encouraging and supporting you on the flatware!
ReplyDeleteSo bright and shine! And you have your green mason jars on it, too :-)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!! I love the tablecloth, green Bell Jars, daffodils, salad plates: aww.. let's face it: it ALL comes together so well for a happy, spring table! Rosie @ The Magic Hutch
ReplyDeleteWhen you set a table, you reallllly set a table! Love those 25 cent dishes and the chargers. Such a beautiful table Kathe!

Your spring table is lovely, Kathe. Lucky you that Mr. B is an enabler. I didn't get support recently when I wanted to order a new set of flatware. "Do we really need another set of flatware?" is the response I received. ;-)
ReplyDeleteYour flatware is very pretty, as are all the details of your spring table.
Very pretty tablescape! Hugs from Bacon Time.
ReplyDeletePerfect table for Spring Kathe! Love the chargers and the plates are so sweet. What a bargain too! I just picked up some of the green bottles too. Fun, fun, fun! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
ReplyDeletehugs,
Jann
Kathe, I so love your green and yellow table. Those beautiful flower plates were such great finds. I think your Michael's must carry better things, than mine does. I have never seen those chargers, nor the green jars there. This table is just so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI don't NEED the green Ball jars, I don't NEED the green Ball jars, I don't NEED the green Ball jars. But I want them. What a lovely set of green pieces to send the spring message!
ReplyDeleteA pretty tablescape - looks like we had the same colors in mind this week. I really like the pretty salad plates and the fact that they are all different. Great job with the napkin fold too.

ReplyDeleteKathy
So beautiful!! Love this spring tablescape! Thanks for linking up at Take it on Tuesday!
ReplyDelete~ Betsy @ Romance on a dime
I love this! So pretty! Actually though, when I saw "tablescape" I thought this would be something different. You know those tables with a clear top that have room underneath to put stuff? Kind of like a scrapbook? I've seen monopoly boards inside tables, doll collections etc. You should make those if you don't already. I'd love to see what worlds you create inside your tables!
