Springing Into View — A Blossoming Table

I can see it — can you? Spring is quickly coming into view and I am ready for it! I'm ready for the warmth of longer days and for the greening of my garden. 

 

While the trees have yet to leaf out, the last of my camellias are covered in lovely pink flowers and spring bulbs have begun to bloom in the garden. Together they've inspired a blossoming table! Come and view it with me!

 

          

I'm especially delighted today

Magical Irish Tablesetting in Delightful Greens and Golds

March has arrived, announced by dozens of daffodils blooming in my yard. Their cheery yellow and gold petals and bright green leaves are just in time for one of the most lighthearted of holidays — St. Patrick's Day! It's a day to don some green, believe in good luck, sing lovely Irish ballads and shout Slainté while raising my glass, all to celebrate my Irish heritage (on both sides of my family). Before that, though, I love decorating my house with green and gold and a sprinkling of Celtic patterns and Irish symbols.

 

I've also set a table that I'm delighted to share with you today! I like to think it captures the magical Irish spirit.
