Pink Hydrangeas


Jump on over and check out all the amazing tables!

Hydrangeas are pretty in just about all their stages, from fresh and dewy all the way to 
the point that they dry on the plant.  I  always let the ones I've picked for the house dry naturally
in the vase as the water evaporates.  Love the muted colors as they turn to those lovely
shades that remind me of a classic "old-timey" look.


This vintage tablecloth depicts not only hydrangeas, but also morning glories.
Some green depression glass, Pier 1 napkin rings, polka dot tumblers from Target,
Home Goods napkins and ivory/white accessory pieces, mini cloches from Tuesday Morning.
The milk pitcher is vintage Homer Laughlin, flatware is vintage Deauville

The dinnerware is a mix of Post86 Fiesta in Juniper, Rose, Sunflower and white,
along with a short lived line also from Homer Laughlin, called Fiestaware2000
shown here in Juniper dinner plates.




















Vintage German berry bowls





Thanks so much for coming by to see my tablescape again this week,
I hope to see you here on The Little Round Table again very soon.

  3. I think this is one of my favorites of yours yet. I think it's beautiful that the napkin ring mimics the floral in the table cloth. That's just a perfect detail!

    Everything is lovely. I LOVE the hydrangeas in the mini cloches!

  8. What a pretty combination you have going here. The tablecloth is such a wonderful place to start. I never get to have enough hydrangeas. They don't grow well here. Yours are beautiful!

  12. Such a lovely table, as usual. That silver vase is perfect for the hydrangeas. I really must have some of the dessert cloches!!!

  13. I used to say, "I'm not a PINK person!" These vintage tablecloths just suck you right in with their pretty colors .... and so many of them contain a lot of PINK! So I guess I am a PINK person afterall. :-)

    Thanks to all of you for coming by ..... Hydrangeas are a mainstay in my garden, always their in one form or another to fill out a bouquet during every season of the year.

  28. This is a soft and pretty table! You mixed color, pattern and dishes so wonderfully! Where to begin.... love the following, the hydrangeas in the domes, the tablecloth, the napkins, those darling drinking glasses, the centerpiece... The overall look is like synergy! All put together your table packs a huge design punch!
    This is one of the prettiest table I have seen in a long time!

  29. Thank you all for your lovely comments on my Hydrangea tablescape! This is a particular favorite vintage cloth, but then I say that about all of them!

    Sarah - ALL of those cutout pieces are inexpensive buys from Home Goods! A great way to give a vintage feel, but not worry about daily use of running them through the dishwasher. I just love them!
