The birds in my yard have been very entertaining lately!
Tweeting (not on Twitter ha ha) and flying about searching for food and building nests!
This tablescape is inspired by the Birds of Spring
This plate was my inspiration for the table
It just says 'Spring' to me!
I layered a large white charger plate and a vintage green plate underneath the salad plate.
*edited to add that I think the green vintage plate is Edwin Knowles Yorktown. Thanks to Monica who helped me research*
The bright green place mat was perfect and added two other colors; yellow and blue
The plaid napkin brought out the yellow and blue in addition to the green.
I went with the blue handled flatware
I love this blue and green goblet and while I found mine at Goodwill, I've seen them at Ross.
Adding a little bird napkin ring continues the theme of this table. The napkin rings were found on deep clearance at Hobby Lobby.
Pier 1 bird salt and pepper shakers on a pale yellow plate
At each place setting is a little yellow bird salt shaker. Vintage and in bad condition, I love them anyway and they are perfect to add that extra touch!
My newest thrifty find is this cute bird napkin holder. I paid 95 cents for it and added some bird paper napkins to the holder.
For a centerpiece I added my potted peace plant and a soft yellow bird and a LOVE sign
*When fresh flowers aren't available a green houseplant still adds some life to a centerpiece*
I hope you enjoyed my birdie tablescape!
Wishing You JOY,
Linda

Linda, this is my favorite of all the tables you have done...♥♥♥ the blue/green combo. The salad plates look like they were made for the vintage plate...a great table depicting spring.
Have a great week...
Oh my goodness! I absolutely love this table Linda! It is absolutely perfect....the colors, the birds, the dishes, everything...:) That little napkin holder is precious! Did you find it while thrifting? Does it have any markings on it? I would love to find one...:) Gorgeous!

Very pretty Linda - birds signaling spring time. I like the top plate with the birds on it. I haven't seen that before. I also like the bird napkin rings. Sandie
Lovely table, Linda, of course I love the cute birdies, and the blue green glasses. xo
I love your inspiration plates, Linda! They look so striking on the bright green placemats. You accessorized everything so perfectly, from the checkered napkins, to all the little birds.
I like the watering can plates. The bird s and p shakers are adorable. Nice job, Linda. It all works well together.

Love the green and the blue together. I want to see more of the green plates. Who made them? LuRay? I love all your birds too regardless of condition.
I really love the shades in your inspiration dishes and in the linens. The colors are bright without being bold. Really pretty.
My favorite two parts of the whole table, though, are the napkin rings and that neat napkin holder with the bird that sits on top. Love those!
This is so simple and sweet! Love all the little birds...
Hi Linda,

This is my favorite post of this weeks Share Your Cup Thursday! The elements you used come together perfectly. Love it! Adding you to my favorites list right now!
This little birdie loves those vintage green plates!!! Great tablescape!
Hi Linda! Those dishes definitely say spring to me too. I used the same napkin rings in my setting too. LOL! I love the color combo used in this setting and I especially love those glasses. Gorgeous!
I do love it! The salad plates are awesome, almost 3D, in one picture it looks like the watering can is sitting up on the table! Love all your little birdies, so precious. Thanks for sharing your perfect tablescape! Hugs ~ Mary
It is delightful, Linda. So much joy in it.

Looks great - I especially love the goblet and napkin ring--what great finds!!
I love your birds.
Your tablescape is so pretty. Love the garden plates and sweet birds!
I love that pretty plate...it looks like a M. Bastin design. I always loved finding her things at the Hallmark store. We love the same things, don't we Sis?

Love, Mona
Linda, I love your bird themed table. Those green plates are so cool, and I love all of the colors on the table. Those little yellow bird salt shakers are precious. Loving those bird on the watering can plates too. Well done! laurie
Love your sweet birds and wonderful watering can plates!
So cute...I love the napkin holder...where did you get that??
Hi Linda. Thanks so much for visiting my blog and entering my giveaway. Your bird theme table is beautiful. I would like to follow you but don;t seem to see the followers on here. I will look again.
Greez, I found your follower list. I am now following! I can't believe I missed it the first time.
I love birds, too! What a pretty table you have set! Love your china:)
Alfred Hitchcock would be proud, Linda...so many birds!!!!! :-) They really are starting to tweet a lot more, I noticed WHILE I WAS TRYING TO SLEEP!!! :-) It truly is a sign that Spring is finally here!
Blue and green is such a soothing and pretty color combination! I love your inspiration plate!!! The vintage plates are COOL! I have never, ever seen a plate with a shape even close to that. So unique, so pretty.
I have the larger water glass in those blue & green, but I've never seen this size. I'll have to check out Ross for them! They work perfectly with your setting! That napkin holder is really unique, too!!!! I like the little bird sitting on top to keep the napkins from blowing. What a great idea!
I hope you have a terrific weekend and that Spring (without the pollen!) is all yours!!!
Linda~You rocked this tablescape! I love the blue & green and the sweet birds....wait~I used blue and green and sweet birds too, LOL! Kidding aside, I love your table. :) Pam
Just beautiful. I love your inspiration plate, but the shape and color of your green plates are amazing.
Your birds have flown to your tablescape and are so welcoming. The cute napkin rings are lovely with the pretty plaid napkins. Your salad plates say spring in flower names which are so cute. My favorite part is the bird and the napkin holder for it is darling. Thanks for the infor on the green plates and I love their shape!
Pam
Such a pretty spring tablescape, Linda.
I love birds too!
Have a wonderful weekend.
From one bird lover to another, it is ever so tweet! I have a plate so similar. It has words on the outside, but the center picture is different. It was a thrift find. I too have white S & P shakers and that same yellow bird. Love your layering of colors! thanks for shaing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
