St. Patrick's Day Table - Wearin' of the Green

 I hope you all have your green ready for the 17th!  Whether you are Irish or not, this is a good day to have a little fun!!

I like to set a St. Patrick's Day table every year. 

 But what I don't like is all the plastic shamrocks and gold glitter that are in the stores for St. Patrick's Day decorations.  I find them kind of tacky!!  
Since green is my favorite color, it is easy for me to focus on the color.  
I love this plate stack! Each of these plates were purchased at  completely different times, but they look so nice together.  

A big shout-out to my brother-in-law, Dave!  He went out of his way on a recent vacation just so my sister and I could hit a HomeGoods!!   I ended up carting the dinner plates home in my carry-on luggage for the flight home!  
I purchased the green floral dessert plates with the border last spring, and I have had the little appetizer plates for a couple of years.  It is fun when things come together so well without really planning it.

These placemats have always reminded me of a cream wool cable knit Irish sweater.  They paired nicely with the leafy green tablecloth I had in my stash. 
I used some natural woods with the flatware and the centerpiece riser.  The woven look on the napkin rings and the centerpiece pot also adds texture.
The centerpiece is a mix of kale, mini carnations, and some faux green cluster things that I have no idea what they are - but I thought they added something!!
I think one of the reasons why I enjoy setting a St. Patrick's Day table is because it is a sign that spring is coming soon!!

Wishing you all a blessed St. Patrick's Day!
☘️May you find each day to be a four-leaf clover!☘️

In the past few years my interests have grown from fabric to paper and now to dishes too! I just love prints, polkadots, plaids and paisleys- hence the blog name.
