Colors of Spring Tablescape

 

I have a difficult time resisting linens, so when I spotted this Mystic Lotus Tablecloth, I couldn’t resist its bold colors and captivating pattern. The fabric is very chameleon-like in that it pairs beautifully with a wide variety of hues.

 

I wanted the tablecloth to shine, so I skipped placemats and reached for my trusty Bordallo Pinheiro geranium leaf chargers. These have been with me for ages and always bring that earthy, natural vibe I love. On top of them, I layered deep purple dinner plates from the Table Tops Unlimited “Primary Colors” line—vibrant and fun.

 

Then came the second layer: a set of plates I picked up years ago from World Market. They’re marked only “Made exclusively for World Market,” but they’re such hidden gems. The sea-life and text motif and purple-blue tones echo the tablecloth beautifully. These never fail to draw comment.

  

At the center of the table is one of my favorite pieces—a tulipierre. I usually fill it with spring tulips (true to its name), but I use it all year long, moving it from room to room depending on my mood. It’s elegant without trying too hard. 

Glassware is where I had a little fun. The blue-stemmed Fitz & Floyd wine glasses in their “Jardin” pattern provide a nice backdrop for the bold Moroccan tea glasses—with their deep blue color and gold detailing—as well as with Everest Global’s striking purple goblets for a touch of sophistication. Between the colors and textures, it all just clicks.For napkins, I pulled out some teal ones I’ve had from World Market. They tied everything together nicely without stealing the spotlight. My Mikasa “Opulent” hammered flatware made another appearance—it’s classic, weighty, and always feels special. 

On either side of each setting are vintage pressed glass crescent salad dishes. I’ve had them forever, and I love how unique and practical they are. They fit just right and add a subtle vintage touch. 

And finally—candlelight. Always. The set of green candleholders are a new find this year, and I couldn’t be happier with them. They bring a soft, warm glow that finishes the whole look. For me, candles are what make a table feel truly inviting.
