Couldn't Help Myself Easter Time Tablescape

Yes. I am a weak person - lacking in will power, impulsive, unbridled, unchecked with just no control when I see dishes that I like. That's what happened while Pat and I were shopping a few weeks ago at TJMaxx. We were "window shopping" with no plans to buy anything when, behold, right in front of us sat this stack of Peter Rabbit dinnerware. Needless to say, it called to me. I literally ran (I am 74 and way out of shape - it, alone, was a site to see,) to get a shopping cart while I yelled at Pat to "guard" the dishes. I got everything on the shelf with plans to supplement what I needed from Replacements,Ltd. and eBay and set off for home. Pat quickly planned out the table and here's what she came up with:

Pat used "Lapis" Fiesta(ware) as the accent color.

See why I just fell in love with this dinnerware? It's so sweet!

I found the blue flatware at Ross years ago.

One of our favorite glasses - from the Dollar Tree

This big boy is from Pier 1 - I sure do miss that store
