On Crooked Creek!
This Spring ~ I went, totally, out of my comfort zone ~ and stagged this fine feathered tablescape for our dining pleasure On Crooked Creek. A tribute to our fine feathered friends.
Instead of my usual reds, golds and greens;
I used this years aquas, browns and creams!
I purchased this cream hued tablecloth right after Christmas. I knew it would be the perfect background for my salad/dessert plates featuring a single bluebird perched on a raised tree branch.
The brown, quilted, scalloped placemats and aqua napkins were a great find while out thrift shopping at my favorite discount outlet store.
My Homer Laughlin Epicure Collection in Turquoise Blue continues to thrill me! Here I've used the dinner plates along with cup and saucer.
The bee stemware adds to the whimisical Nature theme. A new addition is the cream hued bowl with raised bird nest.
The crystal etched vase holds faux blooming branches. I adore how it reflecks the outdoor sunshine! A trio of ivory birds on pedestal perches give movement and interest.
Dotsie @ Podso gifted me with this saucer that matches my accent Gold Crown Lifetime China Co. Aqua China. I appreciate her thinking of me! Dotsie. . .I just had to incorporate this saucer into the tablescape!!!
So~
I added some efferescent faux grass and faux eggs.
Then I palced a soft Spring wreath on top.
I nestled this at the base of the birds to add softness to the table.
I stacked my scalloped green dinner plates onto my two ~ tier plate stand with two of my favorite cream colored serving bowls. Totaly smitten with the leaf pattern, my heart was all a flutter when I found them at a local half~priced store!
This wicker basket, much like other stationary pieces On Crooked Creek, changes with the seasons. Faux tree branches, just beginning to bud, gently holds this faux birds nest. I adore its tin can rustic features. Another connection to our fine feathered friends.

This is so sweet. As soon as I opened your blog I thought, oh there's those beautiful blue dishes! You have done such a lovely table setting, even out of your "comfort" zone---excellent! Thanks for dressing up the little saucer I sent you as well! It's fun to see it all.

Beautiful dishes! I love the blue and creams together. Those blue dishes are perfect with the bird plates.I love it all.
Popped on over from Table Top Tues. Love your bird dishes. I have had a bit of a bird fettish for the past 3 years. Everything looked just gorgeous.
Pat -- that's the prettiest table with a bird theme that I've seen -- it's absolutely perfect!!! And I like the band on the aqua china almost seems like twigs!!!
It couldn't be better -- what a great tablescape!
Gorgeous table, Pat. I love the dishes and linens!!
Those plates are just fantastic. I think they are the prettiest I have seen.
I love anything with a bird theme. This table is wonderful. I particularly like the plates.
Pat, I can see we are both bird lovers. Love your beautiful table cloth and turquoise china. My colors are red, green and gold, too but for some reason this year I've started liking turquoise, too. Do you think it's an epidemic? LOL
Thanks for stopping by my blog with sweet comments. I'm so far behind on visiting and I know I'll be busy next week with a three year old grandson and and a newborn. I haven't forgotten you and always enjoy your visits.
