International Children's Book Day and Easter Table

Once again, Pat decided to combine two table themes into one - International Children's Book Day (which falls on April 2nd) and Easter (March 31st). It's among her favorite tablescaping themes and one she had done in the past for the blog.
International Children's Book Day is celebrated in our family to inspire the younger children to read and be exposed to all kinds of books. It sets them on the path to life long love of reading.
The centerpiece Easter Baskets are filled with books and a few "expected" Easter treats

The accent plate is "Easter Bunny" from Pier 1. It comes in both a male and female bunny (especially appropriate since almost everyone in our family wears glasses.)
Flatware is "Laila" stainless steel by Cambridge

Pat used a Fiesta(ware) "Paprika" luncheon plate and "Sunflower" dinner plate  by Homer Laughlin

Scattered around the table and in the Easter Baskets are leftover Harry Potter glasses





Where it came from:
Green Turf Place Mats - from a roll purchased at Costco several years ago cut into squares
Dinner Plate - "Sunflower" Fiesta(ware) by Homer Laughlin from Macy's
Luncheon Plate - "Paprika" Fiesta(ware) by Homer Laughlin from Kohl's
Accent Plates - "Easter Bunny" from Pier 1 several years ago
Bread and Butter Plate - "Paprika" Fiesta(ware) Appetizer Plate by Homer Laughlin from Replacements,Ltd.
Flatware - "Laila" by Cambridge from Costco eight or nine years ago
Glassware - "Samba" by Libby from Ross years ago
Sisal Reading Bunny - from Pier 1  six or seven years ago
Easter Baskets - from Michael's 

We will be joining Susan for "Tablescape Thursday" at Between Naps on the Porch this Thursday: http://betweennapsontheporch.net/
