… which was cleared and turned into the brunch buffet.

Now it’s time for the Easter Tablescape 2013!

overhead

At the time, I didn’t realize that I had a theme going, but now I see that I did indeed.

egg cups

“Eggs, Eggcups, Flowers, and Nests”

hoppity

Eggs and Eggcups with flowers and succulents.

nests

More of the same – with the addition of some nests.

flowers

More flowers, in tin buckets with nests on them… how original!

turbine fan

If you look closely, in the background you will spot my wind turbine turned hanging light fixture. Sweet!

hanging planter

Another hanging fixture that I love to highlight and use whenever I get the chance, is the chandelier vase that hangs over the sunken kitchen at the swim-up bar.

game time

The pool was still much too cold to swim in, but I was grilling the pomegranate lamb chops down in the kitchen, so I wanted it to look pretty for the occasion.

over the grill

Filled with stock and daffodils.

daffodils

Is it possible to have enough daffodils? I think not!

pink bowl

For the place settings – I used a wicker placemat…

blue bowl

… floral napkins with mismatched flatware…

aqua bowl

… alternating green or blue water goblets…

purple bowl

…. my pastel basketweave Bordallo Pinheiro dishes from Portugal with a couple of silk cabbage leaves tucked in…

yellow bowl

and crystal wine glasses…

amitie

… with “AMITIÉ BONHEUR” etched on them.

AMITIÉ BONHEUR is French and translates to FRIENDSHIP HAPPINESS.

Wishing you much happiness and true friendship. Thank you for dropping by and giving me of dose of both. xoxo
