Easy Spring Herb Table

I enjoy changing out my tablescapes. Sometimes a little change can go a long way when you're busy. I have an easy spring table to share today---it's pretty and doesn't take much time to put together. 

I picked up a few fresh pots of herbs at my local store.  I picked out herbs that I will plant later for cooking--thyme (lemon and German) and oregano. I already had the clay flower pots and the small saucers for the pots.  I have a river birch in my yard and it often sheds large pieces thin bark in the winter.  I save the larger pieces because they are interesting and I'm "always" sure I can do something with them.  So this spring, I put a piece under each potted herb.  I like the way it looks--interesting texture.  

I added Italian Countryside plates, burlap chargers and vintage silver plate flatware. 

I found this wonderful demi-john at a local antique store at a great price!  I also added a lovely piece of lace for a table runner.

  

  

Are you doing anything special this spring using fresh herbs?  I'd love for you to share your ideas with me!

Early Spring Table

I have a spring table that I would like to share with you today.  I haven't used these cabbage plates from Williams-Sonoma for 
several years, so I was happy to get them out for

 this tablescape.  I used burlap covered chargers

 to add to the layers that I wanted to create for the table.

The fresh green color was perfect for this early spring day.

I covered my table with a lovely piece of linen I bought last fall. 

 I absolute love this fabric on my table. 

 I got these napkins several years ago.

 I really like them and I wish I had bought

 more than the four that I have.

Many years ago, I bought four place settings of silver-plated flatware.  My friend and I had fun selecting pieces-- I bought four of each--but each of the pieces is different (the dinner forks are all the same pattern, the knives

 are all alike but a different pattern, etc.) 

Then, I added this round woven tray

 that belonged to my great-grandmother. 

I love the beautiful patina on this tray.

I added a little table, a lantern, some dried fern

 and moss rocks to make my centerpiece.

You don't need flowers to make a pretty table.

I decided to add this little rabbit that I have had for several years.

This could easily be an Easter table--especially

 if your little ones are all grown up.

I know many of you have had many very snowy days...I've seen those forecasts on the news.  I hope my early spring table will remind you that warmer days are sure to be here, soon!
