First Easter Table 2025

Easter is on the way! It's my second favorite holiday and tablescaping theme (after, of course, Christmas!) Pat took pity on me and let me have my way by setting this week's table in a bunny theme. Dinnerware is "Peter Rabbit" by Zrike. We found it last year at TJMaxx and just fell in love with it.



Baby carrots in a bowl at each end go perfect with the meal
I love this plate!



Glassware is from the Dollar Tree many, many years ago
The bread and butter plate is part of my Fiesta(ware) "bread/butter" collection. It is "Forest Green" produced from 1951-1959. I have over 40 colors and still collecting.......

Sadly, the porcelain eggs in the centerpiece bowl are cheaper than real ones,

Where it came from:
White Place Mats - by Calvin Klein from Tuesday Morning years ago
Wooden Charger - from Pier 1 several years ago
Dinnerware - "Peter Rabbit" by Zrike from TJMaxx last year
Bread and Butter Plate - Retired "Forest Green" Fiesta(ware) (1951-1959) by Homer Laughlin from Replacements, Ltd.

Nearly Spring Tablescape

With another gusty, wet storm forecast to being soon, Pat want to "slip in" a bright Spring-like tablescape for this week. She used Myott's "Forget Me Not" dinnerware (one of her favorites) and gave it a more updated and sleek look using two chargers and a simple centerpiece.





Our go-to glassware to add some more color - from the Dollar Tree


Not exactly a charger but Pat likes to use a Fiestaware chop plate as a substitute. They come in all the famous Fiesta colors so they work well with most place settings.
