Centerpiece Wednesday! Red Green White

Welcome to Centerpiece Wednesday!!

Grocery Store bought flowers make a great centepiece! I just plopped them into my favorite white vase and they look perfect!

I love using bold colors as you may know…so I paired the dark red flowers with lime green placemats and napkin rings.

I have a dark red floral runner that matches the flowers in the white vase down the center of the table with the lime green placemats placed over it.

Of course watermelon had to be served….it matched! ha ha

I love using square plates.

It was a delicious brunch. German pancakes topped with fresh fruit, sour cream, syrup and a squeeze of fresh lemon.

Have I mentioned how much I love lime green!

Here it is all together…I should have put some of red and green pillows on the chairs for fun.

OH well next time

You don’t have to spend a lot of money to make a centerpiece pop!

Using store bought flowers really make it nice and easy.
Okay now…let’s see what you have all been up to in creating your centerpieces!!

Tablescape Thursday

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!

To me, it just doesn't get much prettier than garden flowers in a crisp white vase or pitcher! I love your centerpiece,and the flower napkin rings are the perfect compliment!

very nice table. I love the bright colors you used. Place mats go well with the vibrant red. And the fruit looks delicious.

What would we do without grocery store flowers! They're often a great bargain too, but the convenience is wonderful! Your table is so beautiful, beautiful! Such a bright and cheery combination of colors. I'm linking up for the first time. Thanks for hosting, Jacqueline
