St. Patrick's Day Tablescape 2018


Happy St. Patrick's Day! Welcome to my green tablescape. This one just makes me happy! I wrote this post on Saturday (St. Patrick's Day), but I'm just now putting it up. Hope you enjoy it!


I wanted to focus on green for St. Paddy's Day, but not get too literal. This scrap was leftover from Brack's nursery. I made pillows out of this over twelve years ago! It's been sitting in my stash just waiting to be used. It has some green, but the blue and yellow keep it from looking too theme-y.


Green placemats from Dollar Tree match perfectly. I got these several years ago, but Dollar Tree carries these from time to time in different colors. 


Next I layered these woven chargers. I can't remember where or when I got them...long, long ago, somewhere. But every time I use them, Gerald jokes about "passing the plate" at church. Oh, well. The color and texture is perfect in breaking up the blues and greens. 


I only have four of these plates. I got them for a $1 each a couple years ago. They are Johnson Brothers, but I don't have a pattern name. The style is called a "chop plate".


These apple green salad plates are "Rise" by Rachel Ray. They are one of the few things I've ever paid full price for! I bought four several years ago and liked them so much I bought four more. The wide white rim looks so nice with the white dish below.


This blue tea glass is "Gibraltar" by Libbey in dusky blue. I also have matching stems. I got about 12 of these for $25 at a thrift store. Adding a little blue breaks up the green.


I made these green napkins a few years ago for St. Patrick's Day, and I use them all the time. The brown wood bead napkin rings were .25 cents each at a yard sale.


Here's an aerial view. Doesn't that just make you smile? I'm so ready for Spring!

This plant usually sits in a tray on my living room coffee table. I just grabbed it because it added height and an organic touch. Cut flowers are fine, but I like to use what I have or something that will last more than a week. 


The blue-patterned votive holders came from Dollar Tree a couple years ago. I think I got them for Brack's birthday party one year. It was an orange and blue Nerf-themed party. Check it out by clicking here.


The green tea light holders are also from Dollar Tree, I think. I've had them quite a while. The brown twig "orbs" are from Hobby Lobby. They get moved around a lot and used whenever I need an organic element.


You can see my "Leaping Leprechauns" seasonal hutch decor in the background. I love changing this up each month.


Even though I set four places, my sweet girl is at the beach right now, so there will just be three of us tonight. However, the blue and green tablescape is perfect not just for St. Patrick's Day, but for my two favorite boys who I'll be dining with tonight! 

I'm so glad you stopped by my neck of the woods!

    1. Thank you! I'll see if I can find some. The theme was "Frogs", thus the green
