Springing up the Dining Room

That's right...it's been so unseasonably warm here, I've actually got myself 

believing that Spring is just around the corner.  With that in mind, I was inspired to add a 

little Spring to my dining room and lighten it up.  

As with so many of my decorating projects, it all began with a trip to Home Goods.  I found a tablecloth, runner and napkins in colors and in a pattern that I just loved.
The napkins will be pillows in the near future.

I started by adding a "runner" to my dining room table.

I created this runner using a tablecloth folded in thirds the long way 

and then I just pleated it at the head of the table on both ends.

  I added the real runner to my buffet. 

I just adore these colors.

Here is one side of the buffet...

here is the other side.

On the table I used two matching Lenox vases I had and filled them with my favorite flower...the hydrangea...even if they are faux.

The centerpiece is simply a cake stand with a ceramic basket with eggs in blue and green.

Can't wait to hear what you think of my little update.  I always love and appreciate your comments.

Have a great day!
