This table is inspired by the cute elephant plates. I love the colors. We happen to have quite a few elephants in our home
I hung some elephant chimes from the chandelier for added interest. They also have small cups for candles.
This table is full of color. I using a turquoise tablecloth sets the mood, matching the blue in the plates. Even the napkins have elephants on them. The napkin ring is a carved wooden elephant.
These small carved wooden elephants are from a HP co-worker. He is from India. We had invited him to dinner one evening, so he gifted us with these cute elephants. My husband is retired from HP.
The centerpiece is Anthurium plant - a gift from my parents for Mother's Day.
How can anyone resist these sweet elephants?
I borrowed these two rose colored lamps from our bedroom. I like the fringe look for this tablescape.
The rattan chargers I have had for years.
Nomad Elephant plates and bowls are from World Market
Floral Elephant Napkins Set Of 4
A fun and yet exotic tablescape to enjoy. I hope you all enjoyed a very special Mother's Day. The brunch I prepared turned out lovely. We even had leftovers.

ReplyDeleteOoh I love this. I have always had a fondness for elephants. I had my eye on those dishes too and they look elegant on that pretty tablecloth. Those hand carved elephants you were gifted with are quite a keepsake. I like the added chimes on the chandelier and the turquoise elephant on the tea cart. The anthurium is beautiful- can you plant it there and keep it going?
ReplyDeleteLove all of the bright colors in this setting! The tablecloth is lovely! "Elephant shoes" has always been a special phrase in our house (look in a mirror and mouth the phrase and you will see why) I still use it with my daughters!!
ReplyDeleteA very lucky table:) One of our daughters collected them for yrs;)
ReplyDeleteYes, another unique and pretty tablescape, Linda! Love the colorful elephant theme!

What a fun theme with those great elephant dishes and that gorgeous tablecloth. Pillows, napkin rings, and elephant accessories are darling especially the wooden carved ones. Even cute elephant graphics! The aqua elephant centerstage on your sideboard is so cute.
ReplyDeleteWell, THAT'S fun, Linda! I love elephants. I just talked to my friend today and she just sold her late husband's elephant collection. He had several hundred of them and she sold the lot of them to a collector. I wish I had known she was going to do that because there is one I would have loved to have that he was going to give me when I visited next time. Just a small stone one..but...it is what it is, isnt' it?
ReplyDeleteThis is a fun setting, Linda. Hope you are having a great week. xo Diana
