St. Patrick's Day Tablescape

16 years ago

I haven't been posting here much as most of my blog posts have been of tablescapes I've already shown here in the past. This week, I created a new one so thought I'd add a link to my St. Patrick's Day tablescape. Thanks for looking!

    DD,

    Great St Pat's Table. Love your two toned stemware you used. The centerpieces turned out so darn cute filled with goodies and your leprechauns with the gold pots top if off.

    I like the idea of using white plates and adding a cling for whatever the occasion may be. You sure know how to make a great looking table.

    DD, good to have you posting here with us again. Love your table, it turned out so festive, the three candle holders really look great in their St. Patty's attire. Wanna know my favorite thing? Those tiny little posts for the gold coins! So cute.

    Very IRISH! Love the color combos/dishes/glasses & the black tablecloth and shades of green linens! All looks just grand! TFS! Jeanne S.

    That's wonderful...of course! In true "DD Style"!

    I am always very happy to see you here, and miss you when you're not around. But I also have your blog bookmarked to keep an eye on you. LOL. (I just never post on blogs).

    hugs, Karen

    Punk, thank you for your kind comments. I really like that stemware for the two shades of green in them but they are VERY heavy! Seems like only men would find it comfortable to lift them so I don't think I'll get that much use out of them. Good in a wind storm I guess!

    Luvs, thank you! I didn't get a close up pic of them, but those little pots for the gold have sayings on them like "Luck o' the Irish" and "God Bless the Irish". The glass candle/vase trio is so versatile that I have bought three sets of them now and use them all over the house. Its fun to put different seasonal things in them.

    Milosmom, thanks! So glad you like it!

    Jeanne, thank you! I got the idea for adding the black tablecloth with the green from our Kathleen. She did a marvelous table with those colours!

    Karen, thank you so much! I'm glad you stop by my blog. I never used to post on blogs before I had one either. I hope I have time to stop in here on Holidays more often over the spring and summer. I miss it!

    DD, what a PRETTY table ! Those glasses are beautiful ! I really liked your idea of using clings on plates to change the look. I was skimming through a magazine while waiting on bf at the VA hospital and saw another idea that I really liked for changing the look of your plates.. and you can still use them :>) They had taken really pretty Fall colored leaves and arranged them on plain, mis-matched gold and green plates and then placed a clear glass plate over each one. Voila ! New dishes for the cost of walking out in your yard and picking some pretty leaves ! I'm thinking of trying that for Spring with some small silk flowers.

    I commented on your blog, but I am happy to say how pretty it is again..
    And thank you, DD. I did a black and green last year, and decided to do another this year.

    Whoops, I almost missed this thread! I really like the combo of green and gold you've used, especially in your blog header table setting. The gold napkins, n'rings, placemats, plates, and little gold pots all go together to give such a rich appearance. Of course I love the footed hurricane in the center with the leprechaun - I have an affinity for those hurricanes. I like all your linens in the pics and how creatively you've used them.

    Great idea to use the cling-ons. I have so much to learn but you ladies are very good teachers! TFS

    Pretty, pretty, pretty, DD!!!!! The white lace doilies look so lovely and very Irish, too, with all the green. I think your napkin ring idea is wonderful and am crazy about your dinner plates. If you get a moment sometime, will you show me a close-up of one?
