St. Patty's Day 2010

Hurray for Saint Patrick's Day!



This table scape beckons the Leprechauns to venture into the Texas Tea Party.



The center piece is set upon a 3 tiered green pie plate stand. Each tier is tied with shamrock bows.



A daring Irish lass stands tall leading the way to the pot of gold down Shamrock Alley.



Atop the pie stand is an Shelley Regency covered muffin dish.



The next tier is set with an individual Spode strawberry server. The tiny tray, plus the cream and sugar are all in a cabbage leaf design.




An antique green floral chintz jug will serve green beer on this special day.




A close up of the jug shows the detail of its tiger head spout.




Each place setting is layered begining with a green place mat, a Royal Doulton Belvedere dinner plate, a green rose shaped napkin holding a shamrock shaped candle dish.



As the candle flickers, the green tableware creates an appealing ambiance.



A close up shows the lace edge of the round placemat as well as the green and gold filagree on the dinner plate.



The shamrock and green mug is softened by a pale green bow. The French wine glass was purchased from Horchow.



The smiling lad holds a lucky shamrock to give hope to each guests to find the pot of gold.




The lovely lass sends you a happy Saint Patrick's Day wish.
