Mother’s Day Tablescape

With Mother’s Day around the corner, I wanted to create a Mother’s Day tablescape with my mom’s china. The dinner plates look so beautiful with the napkins from the Mother’s Day Gift Bundle from Callie’s.

Surprise Your Mom

Here’s a tablescape surprise for your mom. Sneak into her house and get one of her china patterns. Set the table at your home with that china. When you entertain her on Mother’s Day, she’ll be surprised to see the table set with her plates. And you know she’ll love it because its her pattern!

My mom and I did this for my grandmother for my grandparent’s anniversary a few years back; the concept can apply to many celebrations!

Tablescape Gift Guide

Beyond setting a mother’s day tablescape, here’s a few gift ideas for the tablescape fanatic!

• multicolored stemless wine glass — These add fun to happy hour and one of the latest trends is using a stemless wine glass as a casual water glass. Many restaurants are doing this now; feels elegant!
• napkin twillies — these pretty monogrammed ribbons elevate any table. I featured them in my bridal luncheon tablescape. Use DIXON10 for discount!
• wicker chargers — these are a staple in my charger chest. I love pairing them with pretty paper plates for easy entertaining and they add a touch of texture.
• pink rose napkins — these are part of the gift bundle mentioned above! or get them by themselves here
• rattan bow napkin rings — so fun and girly!
• white woven long basket — I love this style for displaying fruit on the kitchen counter or line with napkins for biscuits on the table
• blue carafe — this is beautiful! so lovely for having a pitcher of water on the table or for wine
• salad tongs — such an amazing deal for that classic chinoiserie
• green bamboo flatware — these add fun to your everyday meals and perfect for summer
• chinoiserie party plates — this set of 4 is perfect for a ladies happy hour. tidbit plates make appetizers more fun!
• cookbook — get the gift bundle or just the book — your mom (or you) will love these recipes!
