I set the table with things I love for Mother's Day.
This metal centerpiece wreath was a gift from the kids at Christmas. I've posted about it a few times now. Love it!
I bought these tiny clay pots to use in my fairy garden and ended up placing them on the candle holders. They have a center hole that fits right over the spike that holds the candles. The little grape vine wreaths were in my stock and they added a little more to the design. Love it when things work out like that!
I added a pale pink Kalanchoe plant (that I re-potted in a clay pot) inside the cage where a candle normally sits.
I love these dishes. I saw them on Horchow's website last year and waited for a sale. I hope to double what I have- these are keepers!
Sorry everything is dark- this area doesn't get good light and it was raining all day so it was overcast.
I love the crystal etched stemware that the kids and my husband gave me Christmas. The purple stemware was also from Horchow.
I fell in love with these napkin rings at Pier 1. They're quirky- like me!
I chose a formal setting but kept the linens casual. Sort of a dressed up cottage look! This is the silverware we used when I was a child for our family gatherings. I love these and chose them because of the sentiment that comes with them.
I picked up this Italian Creme cake for dessert. I had it once before and loved it!
Candlelight can't be beat- love it!
Mother's Day With Love!
Daughter will join us- son lives too far away. Thank goodness for things like FaceTime and Skype. It brings us together and helps us feel closer.
God Bless you all on Mother's Day!

ReplyDeleteWhat a gift you have given yourself and Mother's Day is the perfect time to do just that. Your table says so much about you that I like.
ReplyDeleteHi Liz,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your visit too. Happy Mother's Day. Your table brought tears to my eyes. It really reflects the love of mother that no other kinds of love can compare. Although my mom has passed, I seem to celebrate the special gift of motherhood with everyone. I love the centerpiece and your dishes are so beautiful and delicate. Very beautiful. Have a great weekend with your family.
Love everything about your pretty table, but especially the centerpiece and the gorgeous china - I just might have to add purple to my own dish mania. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteLiz, your table is beautiful! Oh my, that purple transferware is absolutely gorgeous! Your centerpiece is so unique.
