If you have vintage dishes that are packed away,
bring them out this Easter Sunday!
I had fun with these simple table settings using my vintage dishes!

None of them are pieces of fine china.
Most all of them are garage sale and thrift store finds.
mixing old and new,
and using different patterns and textures.
out of my yard for a easy casual look.

You can use old canning jars to serve drinks in.....

Every place setting is different and that's what makes it so unique!

Pile up those platters to use for your Sunday brunch!
that will make your table look fabulous!
I tucked it into the bottle and tied it with a old ribbon,
and voila, you have a custom place card!

These plates paired with those gorgeous flowers are just so soft and feminine and lovely! What a beautiful table.
So beautiful I can just imagine how beautiful this will be at your home. Happy Easter to you and your family Melaine, and thanks for your blog it is a very bright spot in my day
Melaine,
I LOVE it. I just found a bunch of odd and end plates at a garage sale and was so excited. YOU pictures are so pretty. I love your magnolia flowers. I want one of those trees so bad!! I love all of your pictures!!! You are very talented!

It would be hard for me to be tired of seeing photos of lovely old dishes used in a tablescape. In fact, I am encouraged to collect even more. Hooray for garage sale season. Thanks for the lovely photos and inspiration, Melaine. Happy Easter to you and your family.
Those look like a Friday Favorite!
Come to my ♥linky party♥~ and bring those pretty dishes with you :-)
These are gorgeous pictures! What a Easter table you are going to have - your guests will feel very special.
Happy Easter ~

Just beautiful, Melanie! I love mixing dishes together! You did a fantastic job! Wishing you and your family Happy Easter! ~lulu
Very lovely Melaine. I use my vintage bottles to hold individual flowers. What a clever idea to use them for place cards!
Happy Easter!

Beautiful!
Melaine,
This is just lovely. I adore the names in the bottle - so clever.I thought about you yesterday. I found a vintage French caned chair at the Goodwill for 29.99. It needs to be stripped and the cushion needs some TLC but I think it is going to be lovely. Hopefully I will post project pictures soon.
Hugs,

happy easter weekend.
I absolutely love this idea!!! I have so many odd pieces of beautiful old dishes and I don't know what I'm holding on to them for if I'm not going to use them! You have inspired me today! Hope you have a wonderful Easter Weekend!
Your dishes are beautiful and I love all the soft colors. The mix and match is perfect. Have a happy Easter!
Great idea. I love how everything goes so well even though it's not a set. I have that same blue and cream with the gold pattern (8-place setting) that I found at an estate sale. So glad I didn't add fine china to my wedding registry.
beautiful! i love everything! i hope you have a wonderful easter!
Adorable!
Happy Easter smiles to you and yours!
