Tablescape Thursday - Violets

For today's Tablescape Thursday I'm sharing a tablescape done with my collection of pieces of violets china. Go to Susan's Between Naps on the Porch for lots more pretty tablescapes.

Due to the sudden death of our neighbor, I didn't have time to prepare a new tablescape, so I have an encore appearance of this tablescape done over a year ago.

I used purple fabric for the table cover. The centerpiece is a small luggage look box covered in violets paper. A nosegay of violets tied with sheer purple ribbon is on top with purple shiny beads.

Small flower pots of violets (from Dollar Tree) are covered with bright green polka dot fabric, tied with a ribbon, and placed on top of white plates.

Placemats are lime green, I bought four at Home Goods on sale for $3.00,
the reverse side is yellow.

Violets tea cups are at each place setting.

My violet tea pot, creamer, and sugar bowl were given to me when I was a teenager by a favorite aunt, it is a treasure to me.


A violet colored pitcher is used to pour water into the lime green tumblers.
I bought the green tumblers at Home Goods for $1 each!

Leaf shaped plates with violets are beside each place setting.

Actually I started out with the leaf shaped plates on top of the white dinner plate.

But then started tweaking and decided I like this look better:

This is my favorite:

Thank you for visiting my Thursday Tablescape!

I hope you enjoyed seeing my tablescape again, or for the first time.
