Creating a Tablescape for St. Patrick's Day

I didn't know much about what St. Patrick's Day was for so I did some research. If you would like to know for yourself...click here.
I have NEVER decorated for St. Patrick's Day, but I'm all about creating memories for my family so I was thinking about doing a fun tablescape & fun menu for St Patrick's Day this year.
I was searching the net and came across some great items from
Lillian Vernon.


This is only $2.98 Irish Coffee anyone?? Put some green food coloring in the whipped cream for St. Patty's day! Set of 4 is $29.98 (personlized with 1 initial)

How about these adorable shamrock plates & coffee or hot toddy mugs? Set of 4 $12.98


Shamrock tablerunner or some shamrock placemats/napkins (I would use one or the other, but not both)

This Shamrock Platter is adorable for only $8.98
(this would be nice to take with some shamrock cookies all wrapped in celophane to a neighbor or as a hostess gift)
I'm sure you all have a glass candle holder or glass vase, so just pick up a green candle and you can buy some glass clover scatters for $7.98

If Irish Coffee isn't your thing...how about some personalized Pilsner glasses. Set of 4 $14.98



Happy Tablescaping!

Tablescape Thursday



Susan from Between Naps On The Porch is the wonderful host of Tablescape Thursday. If you haven't checked out the fabulous tablescapes...hurry over there! There are some very talented people creating such beautiful tables.


Here is my tablescape I put together the other evening. It's funny, hubby came home from work and asked what I was doing. I told him I was playing Tablescape Thursday. He said, "oh so your decorating again?" In which I answered, "Of course!" LOL

This was fun and in doing this tablescape I realized that I need to find some tan linen cloth napkins...so Pier One here I come!!
Thanks for taking the time to stop by!!
