~~~A St. Patty's Table!!!~~~

Good afternoon everyone!!!! First of all I have to tell you that it has taken me hours to get this post up:( I uploaded my pictures 4 times before they finally showed up. I would "select all" and POOF, they would disappear!!!!! But, here we go. I am 1/2 Irish and my hubby is a part Irish but on St. Patty's Day EVERYONE is Irish!!! My Mom was 100% Irish and St. Patty's Day was her favorite day. She was very PROUD to be Irish!!! I wanted to pay homage to the day but keep it simple, and very ORGANIC! Lots of textures and organic elements.

For the placesetting we have my scalloped white charegers, a soft green dinner plate, a white scalloped salad plate and a green cabbage plate. All the greens do not MATCH but they blend together nicely. I topped the stack off with a pear.

So, I decided to use my pear candles. They are perched on top of a chipppy, wooden stand, not a candle holder!

To the table I added some seed balls and some smooth rocks. More textures! I also am using my cabbage S and P.

Everything sits on a delicalely striped green tablecloth topped with a tan square placed diagonally. Then I used a striped green, white and beige placemat.

2 napkins; one tan and one with a subtle green pattern are gathered in a very simple green ring and fluffed.

My centerpiece is a pot of ivy that I started out on the back deck last summer and have been BABYING all winter:) I added some sticks to the pot for added height and DRAMA! Plus they add some MORE texture.
