This picture from my calender inspired this table

From 2013-02-02 (by Eye-Fi)

I kept the table very simple, using these sparkly daffodils from Big Lots to Hint at Spring. Oops, forgot to iron the table cloth.

The salad plates are purple, but appear black on my monitor.
So I used some scrap booking paper for a touch more purple.

I'm sure, using more purple and some bunnies, this could easily become an Easter table.

I can see why that calendar picture would inspire you Nana..
Your table reflects the pretty color combination from it and
I like the layering of color you did with your plates.
Makes me sigh hoping for an early Spring.
BTW...I don't see wrinkles on your TC !! lol

Nana, wonderful job recreating from your inspiration calendar picture. Love the bright yellow vase and leaf dishes. Neat the way the color reflects from the table on your stems. Are they iridescent or clear? The purple plates do look black on my montitor too. I would of thought the purple were plates too if you hadn't said differently. Great job and spring will be here soon.

Thank you everyone.

Thanks OA, I planned to do this table for Ground Hog Day but...

Jane, I can't wait for Spring either, The tablecloth wasn't wrinkled, just creased along the fold lines.

Punk, I'm glad you like the table. The stems are iridescent.

Jeanne, Baby chicks would be really cute. I think I only have 2. Does that mean I have to go shopping? LOL

Marlene, I got those bowls In the clearance section at the grocery store 1/2 price yay.
I'm so glad you are doing so well with your PT.
Keep up the good work!

Thank you all again.

Very pretty, Nana. It does look like spring and would look great with a few extra touches for Easter. I'm getting anxious for spring here too!
