I really enjoy changing things up! Plus I have these wonderful plates from Walmart that I have seen all over blogland and wanted to use them too. I got the bird design ones last year and new ones ths year. Joe's favorite bird is the male cardinal so that is his place setting.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXYNSCgYIe02cVzmEEGsmxeEa8qBx3zoFE6L5PJFc4k_W3Arg7cNGJrE5cVmnsw6ysk2cx1c_3UN39INVFK3mfO9A2EKlcppJY-LVXPxKWHjSuhC4ZT9axRaNgKpko90oSF8tNI6QFseI/s1600/IMG_1310.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXYNSCgYIe02cVzmEEGsmxeEa8qBx3zoFE6L5PJFc4k_W3Arg7cNGJrE5cVmnsw6ysk2cx1c_3UN39INVFK3mfO9A2EKlcppJY-LVXPxKWHjSuhC4ZT9axRaNgKpko90oSF8tNI6QFseI/s640/IMG_1310.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> The chickadees are for me. I used my favorite red tablecloth embroidered with white and then layered on a square wicker charger, a white ceramic charger, a red dinner plate and the bird plates. They are then topped with a tiny pot that is stuffed with greens, berries and pinecones. All these things are what you would find in the woods if you took a nice walk. We have beautiful walking trails here that we enjoy very much.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAHzjRrOT9v-aWwZBae9koX9HLMSoFKd1RPfFensltQ3-ZSkJfmZRMFkblNbBIbk77_IItMGSTmXIrbGd3qh2sfrdY2tPlIsapO_NUsxzuDpAi2nUFbF-yGxF_OlifWviVpoPO_GXp22Q/s1600/IMG_1312.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAHzjRrOT9v-aWwZBae9koX9HLMSoFKd1RPfFensltQ3-ZSkJfmZRMFkblNbBIbk77_IItMGSTmXIrbGd3qh2sfrdY2tPlIsapO_NUsxzuDpAi2nUFbF-yGxF_OlifWviVpoPO_GXp22Q/s640/IMG_1312.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> I gathered a red and a white napkin into a twiggy napkin ring for even more texture.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlxN0m3vc1X6FPGeg6BfOZKoceONGDAfovL9Etqp6ndOEaepkVWrWAGNDe97M2puoA8s-6URijgnqnvynvlo03cCcIHEOrMpWUL0U9tUUQTXqF3H7Lww_T4EQoIi_2UzWBR5NchIT88n8/s1600/IMG_1313.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlxN0m3vc1X6FPGeg6BfOZKoceONGDAfovL9Etqp6ndOEaepkVWrWAGNDe97M2puoA8s-6URijgnqnvynvlo03cCcIHEOrMpWUL0U9tUUQTXqF3H7Lww_T4EQoIi_2UzWBR5NchIT88n8/s640/IMG_1313.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> Real pinecones and pine cone candles have landed on this table too.

I hope YOU have had a beautiful Spring day as we have had today!!! Joe and I had to go to the old house this morning to see what paint we had that we can use and I did a LITTLE cleaning (cause I can't stand it). We were meeting the cleaning gal there to go over what we want her to do; but we are going to paint some and replace some carpeting then have her clean and then we stage and THEN get it on the market............AGAIN!!! I am trying VERY hard to be positive and upbeat about all this. Then we went and got some lunch then came home and I started planting!!!!! And putzing:):) I had gotten 4 hyacinths as gifts over Easter so decided to get them into the ground TODAY!!! I brought over one of my favorite pots that had been left at the old house so put 2 of the hyacinths in it.
