Welcome to the Tablescaper.
Tonight is the premier of Kathleen, of Cuisine Kathleen’s, new party – Let’s Dish!
What could be more fun than a new party in celebration of SPRING?
It’s no secret that Kathleen is very fond of polka dots.
So, in honor of her party’s opening night…
…my tablescape features POLKA DOTS!
There are polka dots on the egg cups, napkins, and even the glasses!
On our last family road trip I made a visit to Cracker Barrel. We don’t have any close by so it’s always a treat.
During my visit I purchased these polka dot egg holders…
…and egg salt and peppers.
The yellow is so bright and…
…the pink is really a raspberry (hence the name of today’s tablescape, Raspberry Sunshine), …
…that it presented a bit of a challenge.
But, challenges are good!
They make us think and try things we might not have before.
- egg cups, salt and peppers, “Happy Spring” utensil holders which I used as napkin rings are from Cracker Barrel
- felt placemats are from Dollar Tree last year
- flatware and yellow plates are from HomeGoods
- raspberry colored plates are from Villeroy and Boch
- floral glasses from thrift shop
- pink stems from Christmas Tree
Happy Spring!

I love this table! Those colors are not some you would think of combining but they are so amazing together! Love that raspberry color. I just found two of those placemats and almost used them today! Great table and yippe for Let's Dish!! Hugs, Linda
When I was a little girl, I always came out dressed in pink and yellow...and my mama always sent me back to change clothes. Tonight, I feel validated! I love it. Cherry Kay

Cute! Cute! Cute!

Oh my two of my favorite colors.. I had a reaspberry painted room in highschool! I should have had you come decorate it. Your table just makes me smile. I love how the pieces play so well together. Those glasses, both the floral and pink are gorgeous. Love the peeps in the egg holders too.. gorgeous! xo marlis
Raspberry Sunshine it is! What a fun & colorful table! I love it.
Raspberry Sunshine is the perfect name for your table tonight! Isn't Cracker Barrel a fun place to visit? We have a bit of a trip to get to one too, but there are three on the way to Maine so I get my fill! I did yellow tulips today on my table too! Linda
What a cheerful, happy tablescape you made and so fun, too, with Kathleen's favorite polka dots!!
I'd say you really stepped up to the challenge on that raspberry! You nailed it! This is a beautiful table!!! I love the mixture of colors and the gorgeous tulips! It's so cool that you did the polka dots in Kathleen's honor! She'll get a kick out of that! Those polka dotted egg cups are really fun...especially with the S&Ps in 'em!!!
What a cheery and unexpected color combination! Everything works together so well. I hope th party gets off to a great start. Thanks so much for linking.
Hugs,

I love the yellow and pink together! Beautiful! I saw those polka dot eggs, etc. at CB and loves them!

Love your table...I too, like Kathleen love the polka dots. Nothing says Spring more than "peeps"!...Love, love the colors..so perfect.
What a bright and cheery table. I love the little eggs. I think I'll have to go back to Cracker Barrel:) I saw those a few weeks back!
What a wonderful combination of colors! The raspberry looks delicious. Of course i love the dots, and the yellow tulips are so pretty! Maybe I will keep those pink glasses!
A perfect table for the start of Spring! We need a Cracker Barrel too!
Thanks for the kind words, you are so kind!
Love the tablescape!!
I love going to Cracker Barrel - it's been a long-running tradition to eat there whenever we are on a road trip. I'm fortunate that I now live about 10 miles from one, so I can visit it more regularly. I also love looking in the shop while I wait for a table -there's usually something cute that I want to buy!
This IS a very happy table. I can't believe that all your raspberry elements match... perfectly! This is a winner. It's cheery and fun! I would love to sit at this table!!!!!

I'll be honest here...I may not have thought to place the matching salt and pepper eggs in the coordinating egg cup holders. What a sweet tablescape! I know that Kathleen is loving it ;-)
Great color combo! Love it. So bright and you lucked out with the cute thrift glasses that match so perfectly! Dianne
What a cute, fun and happy Spring table. I love the colors and the fun polka dots!
Love, love, love the raspberry and yellow! So cheerful and springy. I needed that-we had snow today! very unusual. blessings, k
So bright & pretty! Just love the pink and yellow together. The polka dot egg cups and S & P shakers are fabu! :-)
Raspberry Sunshine describes your table perfectly! I can't believe your floral glasses were thrift store finds! Happy Spring :)
What a pretty and unexpected color combination. I've been thinking how nice it would be to add some "rasberry" colored things to my collection.

That is so pretty and cheery! I love all of your fabulous tablescapes.
Definitely a spring filled table setting, so bright and cheery. I love it.
So bright and cheerful! It reminds me of my favorite Easter dress as a child, which had a pink top, a swirly yellow skirt, and a big yellow bow at the neck! What a nice launch for Kathleen's new party! LOVE the polka dots!
This is the cutest Spring table I have seen...adorable! Thanks for linking your pretty table to the Open House party. xo, Sherry
I just love the yellow and pink. Polka dots are just so fun aren't they. Your napkin rings are so cute and cheery too.
Oh this does look like a spring celebration. I love those utensil holders and so clever of you to use them for napkin holders. laurie
This cheerful tablescape captures the exuberance of the season - so happy! I love the peeps, the polka-dots and the colors! Spectacular! Thank you for sharing with Home and Garden Thursday,
Kathy
