Garden Inspired

I wanted to create a tablescape with a garden influence.  
If you know me, you know I love my backyard garden 
and at this time of the year you find me either working out there or dreaming about ideas I have for this years
flowers for my garden.
I have Endless Summer and 
Limelight Hydrangeas that I cut and dried
stems from last fall.  I wanted to use these
candelabras but I also wanted to embrace 
my love for flowers so i decided to snip 
some tops off and use them instead of candles!
To add to my garden inspired theme I used
some white geese, a watering can
and a faux green leaf lettuce or cabbage
piece (I can't decide what it is) I just liked 
it!  I sprinkled pieces of the hydrangeas on 
the tray. I took the lead from the panicles 
as they kept drifting down on the table 
while I was fussing with them on 
the candelabras!
 The vintage geese are holding fish in their
 mouths and the watering can is my first 
ever antique purchase (Circa 1930's) I 
found while on a road trip.  My goose 
napkin rings came in handy for this 
one too!
The dishes attracted me with their
 scroll design which makes me think of
 an iron gate, and their coloring
was perfect. 
It's a rainy gloomy day, but for 5 minutes 
the sun tried to get through and I captured 
a picture that shows the colors a bit better.
This tablecloth lends a casual feeling and 
with it's artichokes and overall color 
palette it was the perfect backdrop for my 
theme.  The flatware also has the 
fleur-de-lis design on it.
I pulled the pink in the tablecloth by using 
my fleur-de-lis glassware! 
 I hope you enjoyed my Garden Inspired
tablescape!
