Mother’s Day will be here in just a few days. Today I want to share with you a great idea that we did at our church last year for to celebrate Mother’s Day with our Mother/Daughter Brunch. Our pastor’s wife, Kelly, asked a few ladies to set the tables for the brunch. We were to bring our favorite set of dishes and have FUN.
Here is the table my mother and I did together. We each have different blue and white dishes that we combined to create a pretty setting. I brought along my collection of teapots, creamers and sugar bowls. I also have three miniature tea sets that we added to the table. The centerpiece is fresh tulips in a blue water pitcher that belonged to my grandmother. The blue glasses were the ones we used growing up that my mother gave to me a few years ago. I love using them for company at our house and they went along nicely with our table setting.
For the tablecloth, we used a “plastic” yellow liner from the dollar store with a white lace tablecloth that my mother has had for years. You couldn’t even tell the liner was plastic. Everything blended so nicely together…
Another pretty table with fresh lilacs as the centerpiece…
You can’t see the actual pattern on the china used on this table, but the dishes have orange flowers
that match the flowers in the centerpieces that Cathy made…
A Christmas themed table. This was really pretty…
I love the pink tablecloth that matched with the flowers on the china…
This was such a cute idea! A picnic themed table…
And there was even a table set up for the little princesses who came to the brunch.
Yes, they had real china cups and saucers to use also, along with some crafts to keep them busy…
