Since the Grands are getting older I most often set a table for just them. Always close by though and before the weather becomes too hot to utilize my screened porch which is right next to the dining room. I throw open the French doors and they feel as if they are sitting at the "big" table and it enables mom and dad to enjoy their dinner as well.
This was the table I set in my dining room for Easter dinner. The dining room walls are painted a cherry red which enables me to use some shades of pink and at other times of the year I can do lots of shades of red. In the evening with the crystal chandelier on the color just bounces off the prisms of the chandelier.
These little bunny napkin rings are a new purchase this year from Pottery Barn. I thought these little running bunnies were so cute. The sideboard had two of my collection of bunnies and an Easter Tree with a collection of Easter ornaments.
The Children's Easter Table.
As you can see it opens right there by the dining room.
Instead more of my bunny collection for the centerpiece with colorful grass underneath.
We had a fun filled Easter celebration with the whole family complete with multiple Easter Egg Hunts in the garden.
We had a fun filled Easter Sunday with the family.

This is such a charming post. I think your tablescape is beautiful. I love the place settings, the chargers are so nice, and look great with your china. The napkins with the touch of color matches the tulips. I love those napkins rings......
ReplyDeleteHope your evening is great.

Hello! I don't think I've been to your blog before but I'm now following. Saw your link at BNOTP. I love all your beautiful linens and bunnies. We, too, have grandchildren who are old enough to sit at their own table so I set one for them on our porch at family gatherings. Come visit me when you have a chance.
ReplyDeleteWe always set a table for the young ones, and soon will have to be doing it again for the grands. Both of your tables were lovely - so spring-like!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a fun time for both the adults and the grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteThe plates are so cute and the egg hunt must have been fun.
We are missing that Florida sunshine as we are having a cool wet spring here.

Your Easter table setting is gorgeous! I adore the Beatrix Potter plates and cups - so cute for the children's table. Pottery Barn has quite a few wonderful items. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteCarolyn, both your tables are both beautiful. I'm sure the children will have some wonderful memories of Easter at Grandma's house. I hope all is well and that you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary
ReplyDeleteCarolyn, with graduation, wedding and wedding reception, I am so far behind on reading my friends' blogs and I sincerely apologize. Your tables and your babies are lovely.
