Pink Summer Table

A Spring-Summer themed table setting.. My mind has been bursting with ideas..Spring ..summer ..flowers...beach..vacation..sailing!!! That's the main theme of this  table  setting!!


The huge silk pink flowers are the centerpiece!! The silk table runner is a recent buy from Penang,Malaysia. I have placed a small glass filled sea shells on the plate.




Pink is the dominant color in this setting! The color scheme fell into place after I choose the centerpiece!!!  I have placed a wooden ship on one side and pink carnations in a watering jug in the other side..tied a raffia around it!! I used it earlier Spring table decor with roses..See here!!



Top views..



I have also placed two french hens on the sides ..I have a small collection of French hens..There was a time when I was totally crazy for them.. Thats all I would think of buying any where I went..When we lived in Switzerland I had seen a adorable clay French hen in a pretty house in her garden in Basel. I looked everywhere in but couldn't find anything like that .. so settled for small ones from some places in Europe:))




The yellow with polka dots is candle (a swiss hen):) which I will never burn in this life:)) ... the other one is wooden candle holder (a German hen:)
