The color purple, texture of rattan, vintage silver wine glasses, (being
used for frozen Bloody Mary's,) Lilacs from the garden, vintage
votives in a soft shade of purple, all gently embracing a table
fit for a Spring breakfast.
Purple Ikat placemats gently peeking around the square
rattan chargers.
The HOST end of the table. . . .
Taking shelter under the Lilacs
Candlelight and the color purple. . . .
In harmony, the textures, the colors and the green leaves of the Lilacs.
Fresh Topiaries
The gentleness of still another Spring tablesetting.
Tomorrow morning will bring more coffee cup walks in the garden, more leisurely
strolls through arbors with more Springtime discoveries to inspire.
It is to be warm here tomorrow. What will inspire you to create as the
sun rises to greet you?

So loved doing this table. No plan, just the color purple.
Many thanks for your comments Penny.
It is a gorgeous table, Mary Anne. The colors, textures, fragrance...lovely.
Just gorgeous, Mary Ann.
I was at the Junk Jubilee all weekend in Des Moines and I am kicking myself for not buying all of the lavender/purple bottles one dealer had for sale.
I went to another booth and a gal was selling several pieces of purple transferware and the two of those together would have been sooooOOO pretty. I went back for the bottles and they were gone. :(
Lost out on both counts!
Your table is gorgeous. Love the smell of lilacs. I wish I was one of your guests! They are in for a real treat .

Those plum colored bottles are very pretty. And how lovely they look filled with lilac blooms on your gorgeous table. You did such a wonderful job putting this table together.
Love the purple! They say everyone should have a little purple and black in each room. You have certainly pulled this off.
