Bev, my teaching assistant, gave me these pretty violets in this adorable pot. After I brought the plant home from school, I kept looking at it and thinking that the stripes on the pot were close in color to lemongrass and shamrock Fiesta. I also loved the accents of yellow and deep purple in the flowers, and, before I knew it...a tablescape was born!
I used Fiesta dinnerware pieces in lemongrass, shamrock, marigold, sunflower and seamist green. I like to use items I already own to create my tables as much as possible, but I really wanted that extra pop of deep purple. A trip to the Dollar Store solved the problem. I tried to locate purple tapers but they didn't have any. I did, however, find purple paper napkins. What a great accent!
I layered three green placemats to serve as a table runner.
The marigold pieces on the table look orange in these photos but are a bright yellow color when viewed in person.
