Centerpiece Wednesday

Welcome to Centerpiece Wednesday!

I love the month of May...for me it is warm weather and the start of what I call summer red white and blue celebrations with family! I did this table last year and loved how it turned out I have decided to showcase it again :)

Vroom vroom.....little kids and big kids alike will get a kick out of a tricycle on the table for the centerpiece! A small vase of posies sitting on the seat and big American flags leaning through the handle bars is just plain fun!

The tablecloth is some red, tan and white fabric smooshed in the center for a messy look :)

I made these cute little paper popcorn holders for "small fries" to hold their popcorn and placed them in my wooden silverware caddy to serve.

Using a flat red basket, I placed my white napkins cinched with red, white or blue napkin rings on them.

Use what you have...I used these white cups to hold my red and white silverware for easy grabbing. I went around the house and looked for any red or white dishes, candle items, chargers, bowls etc...and it all came together.

Don't forget to use the trunk of the trike for serving root beer or your favorite beverage.

For a Memorial Day dinner or brunch..you could add old photos in frames of loved ones that have passed on to really think about and highlight them this Memorial Day.

Link up your favorite post from your blog and share what has been the centerpiece of your week or month or year!

Welcome to Centerpiece Wednesday and a wrap up!

This color always catches my eye and painted on this darling end table is too cute for words! Ramshackle Romance 3rd time is the charm! Great job!

Loving this idea of making the table runner reversible! Brilliant idea and once again the color combination is fabulous! French Happy Nest

My Place to Yours has put together this adorable spring tablescape using lots of textured plates and soft yellows.

This house looks so shabby chic and romantic especially since she coated all the brick with a fresh coat of white paint. It always amazing me what some paint can do! So cute! Pennys Treasures

Pottery Barn drink dispenser with pineapple lemonade

I found this great video from Pottery Barn showing how to fill a water dispenser with sliced pinapple, ice and sparkling lemonade for a fun refreshing drink. I also love the idea they show of how to raise up the dispenser so you can place a glass underneath the spicket. Can't wait to try this out. 

Pier One Napkin Rings

Recently I bought these fun metal flower napkin rings from Pier One imports. I pared them with some new napkins from World Market and I just love how they look together! The napkin rings are metal petals with lots of details. They were only 2.95 ea!

I used white square plates placed on woven chargers from Ikea...LOVE these!

I made a simple chicken salad, mixed with celery, grapes and green onion.

I can't wait for more warm days so we can eat outside on the patio!

Saturday night we had 30 youth over to our house..my husband was recently made the bishop in our ward (congregation) and he wanted to get to know the youth better so we had an ice cream movie night at our house. So fun!! Sunday morning my oldest daughter had lots of pain went into emergency and they had to do an appendectomy Sunday night. Madeline has three little kids...the youngest is only 2 months old! So grandma has had to step in and take care of the little pups and Momma....which of course I don't mind at all :) Madeline is doing great by the way! Last night I had a very long planning meeting to plan a youth conference for 250 youth and leaders coming up in June, plus three repair man in and out trying to fix the little flood we had in the basement a week ago!

Rogers Gardens

We moved to Newport Beach when I was 9 yrs old and at that time it was a darling beach town..we lived a mile or so away from the beach and it was beautiful! That was back in 1970... Fast forward and now for the last 20 years it is now known as the Beverly Hills of California. Everything is Very very high end....everything! The houses, the grocery stores, the people, the fashion, etc... Too rich for my blood..I haven't lived there since 1989. I do like to visit and there is one place I have always loved...it is called Rogers Gardens.

They do incredible landscaping, indoor florals, tablescapes, and holiday decor.

Enjoy some of this eye candy from one of their videos.

Easter tablescape

I decided to use orange on my tablescape instead of the typical pastel colors. I used my orange and white polka dot plates and mini martini glasses filled with shredded paper and jelly beans.

I played around with what to use for my centerpiece...I used faux chocolate bunnies, mini urns filled with faux carrots and eggs and ended up using something else.

My orange pitcher and lime green plates worked really well mixed with the polka dot plates.

Remember when I used these $1.00 store twig wreaths on my "Ralph and Audrey" Country Western tablescape HERE

I made these mini rolls in these mini terra cotta pots HERE

I added a couple of other bunnies for the centerpiece.

I loved how the colorful jelly beans look in these mini martini glasses.

Hope you all enjoyed your Easter with your families!

Centerpiece Wednesday and a wrap up will be up and running Tues. night 7pm..can't wait to see what y'all have been up to!
