Trying to set a pretty table for a Mother’s Day luncheon? A little secret to creating a table is to mix high-end items with paper. Modern paper plates have gorgeous patterns that follow current table trends. This means that you can set a different table for all your celebrations without the need or expense of new dinnerware.
These plates are made by Caspari (click here to see their selection of products) and have a beautiful pattern. I had planned to set a white table with these plates but they are so pretty with green that the table went a different way.
A variety of green ferns and spider plants (or airplane plants) mixed together created the centerpiece in a white basket. Leaves were used for place cards. Gold flatware accentuates the golden center of the flowers on the plates.
Green glasses serve as containers for a chopped salad. (Click here for one of my favorite chopped salad recipes.) Try to look at things in a different way and see if you can use them for another purpose than you usually use them for. Pretty glasses can have a variety of uses which means that you can use them more often and for more things than the intended purpose.
