Spring Tablescape
March 22, 2012 by Aimee • 46 Comments
My sweet hubby brought some tulips home the other day which was a perfect excuse to set up a date for me and my best friend, Little B.
The little bunnies are from Pier One last year. I haven’t been yet this year, I always love all of their seasonal items, I just may have to stop by there today.
I bought this mirrored tray in gold from a thrift store for a quarter a few months ago. I took the mirror out and gave the tray a coat of glossy white, then spot sanded it to add a bit of depth to the tray.
I know I’ve said it before, here, but one of my weaknesses is always white vases. So much versatility for next to nothing, just can’t resist!
I used a thick nail and a little hammer to carefully make a whole on each end of an egg. Then I did the disgusting glamorous act of blowing out this little beauty. I printed an ‘a’ for me and ‘b’ for Little b. Then traced it onto the shell and painted a splash of pink.
My fleur-de-lys juice glasses are from World Market, a little better priced than the ones at Anthropologie, but just as cute!!! I love these so much for sweet girly tablescapes!
I enjoyed a delicious breakfast with my sweet bestie! It’s the best meal of the day, for sure!

Very sweet Aimee! I too am a sucker for white vases/ceramics. They go with everything. Those eggs are adorable too… even with the blowing of the yolks. It is disgusting isn’t it?! What we go through for design
Who would have thought to do that to the eggs?! Too cute.
Our Pier One just closed.
Love your table setting!
Aimee,
What a beautiful tablescape! Love the initial egg with the sweet flower!
What a great find on your mirror tray and the collection of white vases… love it!
Have a great day!

Have a Blessed day hon,

So pretty! I love the mirror. I have one just like it that I put my perfumes and knick knacks on in the master bedroom. I might need to give it a coat of white lacquer. I love the look of yours.
looks so cute!
I am visiting via Centsational Girl. I adore your project. So clever!
Happy day, happy spring, happy happy everything!
Aimee… this is so sweet… a white with a touch of pink is the most sweetest thing I know.
The egg give an extra zest of your setting. Very pretty.
BTW, I had this egg last year but colour eggs.
Happy TS…

This is gorgeous! I love how beautiful & fresh it looks! Great job friend!
I love what you did with the eggs! I need a trip to Pier 1!
XO,

i love your white tulips in white vases!
So simple and lovely!
I love that white tray!
Such a pretty white table, Aimee! I think we get so accustomed to all the pastels of Spring and trying to dye the eggs from white to anything else BUT white, that we forget what a beautfiul table all white can be! Wonderful job on the egg with the tulip through it. I have never blown an egg for the very reason you described. I just don’t know that I could bring myself to do it!
I really like the way you gathered all the vases onto the mirrored tray. Very pretty! Enjoy your weekend!
So pretty!!
love the collection of vases on the mirror. Such a pretty table.
What a beautiful arrangement your white vases made on that tray you madeover. Cute idea with the eggs too.

Hey there Aimee, Where are your white plates from? I like how they’re flat instead of somewhat bowl-like. I’m curious what you two had for breakfast? I know it was something yummy!
Mine are from Linens and Things…now out of business! There’s a great deal through William Sonoma on some very similar…I’m on the road so I’ll get the link for you real soon Amanda!!! Oh, and we had our favorite homemade cinnamon rolls, fruit and juice. I’ll have to get the cinnamon roll recipe, too!!
Very pretty! I think the egg idea was very creative!
I should have figured this was your work when I saw the link over at IheartNaptime. It’s so gorgeously Aimee’d. Absolutely lovely, as always!

Watching tv while blogging- didnt’ mean to type skirt
I meant to say I know your ‘spring decor’ will be a hit. 
I love it! I share a passion for white vases, too. I have some of the same ones you have! Mine are currently tulip-less, though.
