Pretty Pink Poppies and Peonies

How's that for some fun alliteration?

I wait all year for my peonies for bloom.

I found these pretty poppy plates at a local gift shop last summer and thought they'd look good with Fiesta's new color release for 2012 - flamingo.

Lemongrass, flamingo and black Fiesta pieces blend in the place settings of this floral-themed table.

 

 I found this table square on ebay.

Love the contrast of the lemongrass and flamingo with the black!

As the table square was too small to cover the table, I layered it over a large,white textured tablecloth.

Poppies!

CAUGHT CHEATING

Okay, this isn't a complete tablescape, but I was so excited about my latest find I couldn't wait to use it.  I found these pretty little poppy plates on the clearance rack at a local gift shop for $1.25 each.  I used a Fiesta flamingo (Fiesta's newest color release) dinner plate, a lemongrass luncheon plate, and a sunflower bread and butter plate to complement the poppy plate.  This would look gorgeous on a vintage tablecloth...and the search begins!
