Welcome to the Lucky Charms tablescape Blog Hop. I want to thank Debbee from
Debbee's Buzz for organizing this fun filled blog hop. You will find tablescapes, crafts and Irish food. Let the Shenanigans begin! We are all excited to see who is the Keeper of the Cloth this year. Last year Debbee's Buzz had the pleasure of being the Keeper of the Cloth. I had passed it on to her.
Happy upcoming St. Patrick's Day. I am actually Scottish. What are the similarities between Scots and Irish people? They are both Celtic nations ☘ Tartans are found on both
They have a drinking reputation. ☘ Both of them love to enjoy and have fun.
I set this table on a dark green tablecloth with cabbage placemats, a gold charger and Bordallo Pinheiro cabbage plates. I added a gold plate and a Mackenzie Child's clover plate on top. Gold flatware picks up the gold in the Lucky Clover plate.
I dressed my chairs with green pillow cases and a gold chair sash. Gold goblets tie in nicely with the green. I couldn't make up my mind on which tablecloth to use, so I took photos of both.
A shamrock dish by Temptation is sitting on the Mackenzie Child's Lucky Clover plate.
I found this cute little Leprechaun that lights up. I thought he would compliment my table nicely.
With the gold tablecloth, I am getting my bling in!

I made some Irish pasties for the occasion. Using Pillsbury pie crust, corned beef and potatoes, coleslaw mix and a little mustard. A pasty is a hand-held pie filled with savory meat or vegetables & spices. A quick and easy pasty to enjoy with a mug of beer.
I also made this Irish Apple Cake. The recipe is by Gemma Stafford. It is a cross between a coffee cake and an apple pie.
I decorated our Baker's rack with some St. Paddy's green.

You always have such beautiful tablescapes Linda! That apple cake looks pretty tasty. I have always admired your Celtic carolers, they are so cute and liven up your tables. Thank you for sharing your inspiration with us.
ReplyDeleteLinda, such charming place settings to enjoy St. Patrick's Day. The gold tablecloth is gorgeous and is the perfect backdrop for your stack. The placemats are darling and I love you topped the stack with the MC lucky clover plate. A perfect way to enjoy the Irish pasties and apple cake.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend....
I think we found the pot at the end of the rainbow!!!! your gold and green shamrock place settings are like finding a treasure!! So fabulous! Love it!! Have a fun St. Patty’s Day☘️
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun table! Rick is Scots/Irish, too on one side and getting to know his heritage more. Your table is full of magic and I suspect a pot of gold lies in wait!
ReplyDeleteI love your leprechaun/gnome with his wee pot o' gold!
ReplyDeleteLove your pretty plate stack topped with your MKC Lucky Clover plate Linda! It works well with a green or gold tablecloth. I always love seeing how your baker’s rack is dressed for the holidays. I shared an updated recipe for an Irish Apple Cake last week, it’s good for breakfast, tea or a sweet ending for St. Patrick’s Day! As always, it's a treat to hop with you and join you at the table. Erin go Bragh ☘️💚
ReplyDeleteLinda, lucky are the ones who get to enjoy dining at this table. Love your plate stack topped with the MKC Lucky Shamrock. These little plates really offer a stunning touch! Beautiful touches as always. Erin go Bragh!
ReplyDeleteLinda, I love your table and the food sounds just perfect for St. Patrick's Day! You also decorated the bakers rack so nice and I love the hats and shamrocks. It looks like you are ready to celebrate St. Patrick's Day next week!

ReplyDeleteI hope you'll invite some leprechauns over and have some St. Patrick's Day fun~ your food sounds delicious! Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Linda, those M-C four leaf clover plates are the stars here, in my humble opinion. I resisted until this year, but only bought one, so special fo you to have a table setting of four! I love how you couldn't resist your signature bling, right down to changing out the tablecloth. I like both! The foods you made sound delish, and I'll toast to that pasty! Beautiful display of all your M-C checks and St Paddy's Day green in the baker's rack. Happy to be in your company on this blog hop! Let the shenanigans begin!☘️
ReplyDeleteLinda, your table is gorgeous! Love the plate stack and the clover plate on top is beautiful. I like both tablecloths, but I think the gold one has a bit of an edge up for me. The Baker's rack is so fun all decked out for festivities! The pasty and Irish apple pie both look delicious. I hope you have a wonderful St. Patrick's day!
ReplyDeleteThe table is lovely, Linda! I especially like those gold glasses. I also love the look of that Irish apple cake...mmm, that sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful place settings..Your gold glasses just top it off...Enjoy your weekend..
ReplyDeleteLinda, your table and cabinet must be described as leprechaun bait --- all those golden elements! I adore the MC clover plates, and am green with envy lol! I've never had Irish apply cake, and it and the hand pies look delicious! And, I always enjoy seeing how you style those incredible dish stacks, flatware and glasses from your extensive collection of tableware and linens. Such a festive St. Patrick's Day table!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the sparkly gold tablecloth Linda! Heck, might as well do all the glam! :) Your menu sounds fabulous too! My husband's family makes pasties and the recipe is being handed down from the last of the older generation. Yours look delicious, and that cake!! I'm definitely going to try that one! Thanks for the St Paddy's AND cooking inspiration. So nice hopping with you, as always! 💚
ReplyDeleteWhat a festive St. Paddy’s Day table, Linda. I like both of the tablecloths, but the bling is definitely you. Those MKC clover plates sure are cute. Your apple cake looks so good and I’d love a pasty. 💚☘️💚
ReplyDeleteBeautiful stack of dishes! And that cake looks delish!
ReplyDeleteThank You Linda for sharing your beautiful Saint Patrick's Day tablescape.
ReplyDeleteHAPPY SAINT PATRICK'S DAY

I was hopping along and I had to double check where I was. I immediately fell in love with the plate stacks. So incredibly pretty! Next I saw the leprechaun and he was such a fun addition. Then the third picture popped up and I knew exactly where I was! Of course... it was the bling! As I moved further through the pictures though, I realized it didn't matter at all which tablecloth you used. The food, your gorgeous Baker's rack, and all the little details that are so much a part of your style left little doubt I had made it to your house! Just gorgeous Linda! Thanks so much for the constant inspiration! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove your table Linda...you always have a unique setting. Your MC pieces are lovely and I, too have the Temptations clover covered ramekins...love them (I also have the heart, egg, and star ones too) I would be disappointed if you did not include your "bling"....always fun blog hopping with you my friend. Kari @ Me and My Captain
ReplyDeleteI love the lucky clover plates and the gold tablecloth! Everything looks wonderful.
