I've had ENOUGH winter!
And we have only had about 2 inches of snow this year.
Can you tell that I am a transplanted Californian?
I finally bit the Bullet and painted Chalkboard Paint onto a Silver Platter that I found at an Estate Sale
for$10.00.
It is now my absolute Favorite!!!
I have created a semi-tablescape although I mostly want to show you my recent finds.
Is that cheating?
I found this cute little Bunny Candle at Tuesday Morning last week. I like how natural looking he is on top of the moss nest from Nell Hill's.
Huge Score!
I went to two Estate Sales last week and picked up a set of these Hummingbird dishes by American Atelier for $25.oo. I'll be using them in a full tablescape soon!
And, I scored 12 Bordallo Pinheiro plates at another Estate Sale for $39.00.
I always kind of get the creeps when I go to an Estate Sale. But my dear friend Kristy always assured me
that "they just downsized and went to Florida!".
At least they are assured that their things have found a loving new "home".
Does it count that I "found" these Milk Glass pieces while cleaning out my Pantry? See Here
They belonged to Mr. Beaux's Grandmother.
This sweet teacup was a Mother's Day gift from Miss Beaux. She picked it out at Anthropologie.
She knows what I like!
See how the leaves repeat on the saucer
and the Cabbage plate...
I have no idea how old these plates are but they sure are pretty resting atop my Butler's Pantry white dishes.
Black checked napkins are from ??
The flowers I bought last week are still hanging around.
I LOVE Costco flowers!
They are the freshest and the best price!
Until Next Time...

I absolutely love your mini-tablescape! The dishes are adorable and I love your platter.
ReplyDeleteThis just makes me want to pull my 'bunnies' out of the bins and get some Spring going on around here. Love those plates!
ReplyDeleteYour tablescape is so fabulous....love all your dishes and those bunnies are soooo cute!

Cindy, what a fabulous tablescape! Love the silver chalkboard! Definitely have to put that on my "to do" list! I'm ready to start bringing in all of my fresh flowers this weekend!
ReplyDeleteI WOULD HAVE NEVER THOUGHT OF USING A SILVER TRAY AS A CHAULK BOARD, VERY COOL. LOVE YOUR GREEN LEAF PLATES, I HAVE A WATER PITCHER THAT WOULD COORDINATE REALLY WELL WITH THOSE, I MIGHT HAVE TO FIND SOME OF MY OWN.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous combination! love the hummingbird teapot and the dishes, and nests, and the whole look of the anticipation of Spring! I think I hear birds singing!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful little tablescape! It sure is calling Spring out loud. I love your dishes, twig chargers and platter, lovely! Thank you for dropping by and for the lovely comment on my mother's tea party.
ReplyDeleteFABBY
WOW!! Those are some really excellent finds!
ReplyDeleteWell done - love every single piece!
Alright, I am getting ready for Spring too after I see your bunny and nest. I love your small tablescape with all of your perfect finds. I'll start getting my Spring and Easter things out this weekend. I have lots of Fitz and Floyd Easter "stuff" so I better get busy. Great job Cindy.
ReplyDeleteYou always have the best ideas. Love the flower tucked in the silverware and the stacked plates and teapot.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty Cindy! Now this is what I call inspiration I can use! I have the Butlers Pantry, Green leaf plate and checked napkins. I would have never thought of this combination but I love it! I am so ready for spring as well and this setting says that to me too. Great choices!
ReplyDeleteI love that platter,Your mini-tablescape is beautiful. Your table will look absolutly georgeous. I am crazy about the bunny.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly scored! What fun finds. I am definitely having to make a trip to Tuesday Morning before everything is gone!
ReplyDeleteI still have the chalkboard paint on my "to do" list. I love it on your silver platter!
I have a chalk board platter on my to-do list as well. I can't make up my mind between a silver or white tray. You found some great finds at the estate sales!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!!! What a fabulous tablescape...I love the dishes, the linens, the napkin ring idea...it all so beautiful!!

ReplyDeleteMiss Bloomers
I have wanted a chalkboard silver platter ever since I saw one a few months ago. Yours looks great! Love your spring tablescape as well as seeing your new finds.
ReplyDeleteI can't even find many silver plattters. My linky party entry has a tiny one this week. I love the silver trays and I love your chalkboard one a lot!
ReplyDeleteYou scored big time with your dishes-can't wait to see a full tablescape.
ReplyDeleteYour tablescape is fabulous. Love your mix of dishes and the silver chalkboard is wonderful. Beautiful display. Thanks for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
