A Fair Meadow Place Easter in the City

Welcome to Fair Meadow Place in the City

We are starting at the front door with Hydrangeas

They are so big and irresitable.

The pot fit right inside the Egg Basket.

A basket of coloured Easter Eggs sits on the table inside the front door.

In the living room three wood candlesticks on the coffee table are topped with moss balls and grapvine balls.

A three-tiered tray sits on the table in the kitchen

The Chick and the Bunny are faux chocolate moulds.

I am going to leave you with links to Easter Egg Turorials from previous posts, just in case you missed them.

Set the Table Easter Table

Easter Table

These little Bunny plates have been really popular this year.

The colour scheme for the table setting is Blue, White, and Green.

When I was young the saying was "blue and green are never seen".

In other words, someone decided that blue and green do not go together.  How funny is that?

I have used silver flatware and Waterford Chrystal.

Each place setting has a green goblet planted with small blue and white pansies.

The napkins are doubled.  They are a simple cotton green stripe and solid blue.

The napkin rings are green and white flowers, sort of like Queen Ann's Lace that we see here later in the summer.

The floral arrangement consists of Blue Pansies, White Muscari, White Ranunculus, Ivy, and Maiden Hair Fern.

I like the woodsy feel of the arrangement.

I managed to find the Bunny Salad Plates last year for Easter and we will enjoy them once again.

Meanwhile in Mr McGregor's Garden....

Meanwhile in Mr McGregor's Garden....

In the Dining Room over on the Buffet, it looks like a Naughty Bunny has found his way into Mr McGregor's Garden.

Well.... I really set this up for grandchildren.  I hope they like it.

I believe the story goes something like this.  

Mrs Rabbit had told Peter to stay out of Mr McGregor's garden.  

The reason was that Mr Rabbit, Peter's father, had met with an untimely end when he was caught by Mr McGregor and put into a pie.

Peter went to the garden anyway and squeezed under the garden gate.

He proceeded to eat his fill of vegetables. 

 He ate so many that he developed a tummy ache and went off in search of some parsley.

But, he ran into Mr McGregor who chased him with a rake.  Poor Peter lost his shoes and coat in the scuffle and had to hide in the garden shed inside the watering can where it was very damp.

He had to run away again when Mr McGregor found him. 

 Peter became completely lost and couldn't find his way out of the garden. 

He had to sneak past Mr McGregor's cat.   

Peter finally found his way out of the garden and home.

When Peter arrived home Mrs Rabbit had to dose him with Camomile Tea (for a tummy ache) and put him to bed.

Peter returned to Mr McGregor's garden to get his coat and shoes.  He found that Mr McGregor had hung his shoes and coat in the garden for a scarecrow.

Thanks for joining me.

Set the Table - Easter Breakfast

Set the Table - Easter Breakfast

A Yellow and Pink table setting.  It is cheerful and Spring-like, set up in the kitchen.

The kitchen table is small, so the centrepiece is set up at the back of the table.

The Myrtle topiary is sitting in an apothecary drawer and naturally dyed Easter Eggs placed in a glass hurricane.

My replica chocolate mould bunny sits atop vintage books and the small frame contains a Gelli print.

A vintage quilt c1940's-50's is used as a tablecloth.   I believe the pattern is Dresden Plate.

Faux Peony flowers are placed in the flower pots.

The whole place setting.
