I think I will call this luncheon tablescape "Doris Day Luncheon" doesn't it just have that feel of an old Doris Day movie. All yellow and sunny...can you picture Cary Grant coming in and sitting down eating some scrumptious things she cooked.
I have had these darling yellow, pink and white polka dot plates for a few years now. I picked them up at Target for cheap! I love how they look so fun and happy!
I used some yellow gingham fabric from my fabric stash and smooshed it around and then set my white vase on it filled with flowers from Walmart. The whole bouquet cost $9.00!! I love fresh flowers on the table. I used some of pretty pink napkin ring holder that are still available RIGHT HERE ON MY BLOG FOR ONLY $1.00 each!! 
I love these gigantic white napkins that I bought at a little shop in downtown Chicago a year or so ago. They are so nice because 1. they look amazing on the table and 2. they cover your lap if really well if you spill!
The white vase and the white cups were from Neiman Marcus or as I refer to them as Needless Markup! (I did not buy them mind you) they were given to me as a gift. Love that!! They are Italian dishes called Bella Cucina and I use them all the time. They are so fresh and clean looking. It is funny because the person that gave them to me actually gave me a large ornate platter but that is so not me so I went to exchange it and got the large white vase, 6 cups in a cute silver holder, a little white pot with a lid, and one other thing for the price of one large platter. SCORE!!!
Que Serra Serra.... whatever will be will be ......the future's not ours to see.... que serra serra....
Just alittle Doris Day singing for you! Hee Hee

Thank you so much....just thinking of Doris Day makes me smile....and Cary Grant...that makes me smile super big! :-)))))OK...I can't resist any longer, going to etsy to grab some napkin rings!
I love Doris Day and those wonderful old movies -- what a wonderful tribute. I tried to get on etsy and order these napkin rings...but it won't take my e-mail address -- let me know if there is another way. If you have anymore, I would love a pink set and a blue one.
Nice sunny table!
Yellow is a smile-maker. I have daffodil soup bowls and love them. I'm off to look at at your Etsy Shop.
I forgot to add I LOVE old movies with Doris Day and Cary Grant.
That was a fun luncheon table-just full of sunshine. I love the polka dot plates. Now that song is going to be in my head all night! laurie

I think I hear que sera sera:) I just needed a good dose of sunshine and this does the trick! Love those polka dots!
Beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing. Lia
Okay, I just found your blog. Oh my gosh I am in heaven. I love it!! Great Ideas, Great Pictures, a women after my own heart!!
I am so new at this and this afternoon has just been a delight! On one blog that I was visiting, I saw depression glassware that reminded me of my beautiful Mother that we lost at such a young age and now on your site, Doris Day! One of my Father's favorites! And we lost him at the age of 90! The crisp yellow and white,the neat dishes ... all in all a day of "yesteryear" ...that now I realize how blessed I am. It's not how long someone is in your life, but how much love she gave to us in such a short time!! It took me a long time to realize that! So thanks for the memories!! and the beauty of it all!
Pink Hugs,
Dee
I am coveting all your pretty polka-dot plates! I loved the orange ones on your earlier post, but these are darling, too!
Your table is so bright and cheery, like a breath of fresh air!
What a lovely Spring, cheerful and yellow,'Doris Day' delight!.., I adore polka dots!
Please pop by for 'some tea' and a visit sometime!(I have featured a white and green, polka dot teacup for this weeks 'Tablescape Thursday', amongst my dishes in my vignettes).
