I love designing tablescapes. I started back in September 2010 and I now design tablescapes to share on my blog as well as on "Between Naps on the Porch" for Tablescape Thursdays.

My passion for designing tablescapes has sent me out on a search to buy more dishes that I can share every week.

I also enjoy making my own napkins to go with my different dishes and I love to mix and match some of my beautiful dishes.

Happy Mothers Day.

My Inspiration for this Tablescape was To
Honor my Mother Memory..

I love using my Blue Willow China for this Day.

My Centerpiece is mix Spring flowers..

I have the Blue Willow coffee pot and also the Tea pot.

I hope you all have a wonderful Mothers Day with your family.

I just Purchased my Green Depression glass 8" plates with a 
crackle design.. Set of six from Ebay love them.

I also Purchased my Blue Willow China on Ebay
some time ago. I put this soup bowls on top of my new green 
salad plate..

I purchased the Crystal Candle Holders from the
Good-Will two weeks ago. The tag on the bottom said Waterford.. WOW
I paid for them right away and out of the store !!!! I did go fast..!!!!!!!!!!
Only paid $6.00 for the two of them....


The two Crystal Candle Holders 
are from me for Mothers Day. Love you Goodwill...

My Son is taking me and my Hubby out for dinner for
Mothers Day. He is a Sweetie...

I hope you all come Back!!
Please take a moment to comment. Thank you so much!
I hope you all have a wonderful Mothers Day...
I am linking up with these Blogs for there linky parties.

Dear Diane
I love the coffee pot and China dishes. The tablecloth is wonderful. Here the mothers make such tablecloths, I have two of my mother but unfortunately I do not know the technique of knitting.!
Have a wonderful Mother's Day

Your table is great and has special meaning for me. My mother loved green and navy/cobalt together, so I immediately thought of her, when I looked at your china. Thanks for sharing!

Wowsers! what a deal! Amazing deals can be found at Good Will and the thrift stores.

Thanks for sharing your creativeness with us.

Happy Mother's Day to you! Your table looks gorgeous! I'm not sure if I love the Blue Willow or the Green Depression glass more...they are both so pretty.

Diane, your table is just lovely. Those crackle green plates are really very interesting- love them! You found a great buy in the $6 Waterford candle holders; isn't it fun, fun, fun to find such a great bargain?

I always love when you use the white flower plates. I also like the floral napkin rings. And of course, blue and white is my favorite. This whole tablescape is eye candy for me! Loving it!!
