Rustic Easter Table

Since this is our second Easter table this season, Pat wanted to try something different from the last one. She thought a rustic table would be fun. She chose the very popular "Bunny" plates from Pier 1 and put a different slant on them.

The table (shown here with clear glassware. At the end are pictures with colored glassware to change it a bit.)

The place setting uses a rustic twig placemat and a very heavy charger. 

Flatware is "Montana" by Gourmet settings - Pat chose it because of the "twig-like" handles

Such a cute plate on its own, but turns out it is very versatile, too

The dinner plate is "Spice Route" Paprika - also from Pier 1

Pat and I got a deal on these chargers -  fifty cents each at the Cancer Society's "Discovery Shop" thrift store on sale. 

Couldn't resist these placemats from Bed, Bath, and Beyond

To dress up the table a bit, Pat used  inexpensive stemmed glasses (from the Dollar Store)

The whitewashed bunny is from Pier 1 this year and is part of a set

One of Pat's favorite tricks - a napkin ring turned into a tea light candle holder

From the other end of the table

Here's the same table but with colored glasses:

The clear glasses were replaced with a dark red tumbler and an olive green wine glass. I love the color but it does tend to "darken" the table a bit.
