Tabletop Tuesday - a little tweeking

It's always a pleasure to visit Marty at "A Stroll Thru Life" -- she's one of the sweetest bloggers there is. So today I've done just a little "tweeking" of my tabletops before I redo it all changing from Spring to Summer decor.


A bit of Springness on my washstand.



Isn't May the merriest of months?



A peek at my apothocary jar -- what's this? A baby shoe?


The perfect spot for a little nest!



I love fresh asparagus in early spring!



A view of the Spring sideboard.




This had been a decoration for an earlier bridal shower and wedding tablescape. I've removed the tulle and kept it for Spring.




A few more pictures of spring birds and "nesting". My tablescape this Thursday will be all about my favorite vintage bird china -- there's something about Spring and our feathered friends, isn't there?

Be sure to visit Marty at "A Stroll Thru Life" -- you'll be glad you did!

See ya!

  1. Hi Martha! The temps here turned summer hot! Not ready for the 80s...would like some more of the 70s.
    Neat things you have on the buffet/sideboard!
    Love the white with gold pitcher and the little shoe with eggs in it is a very cute idea.
    Have a sweet week,

  4. Oh how gorgeous. I love it. Your silver tea service, the silver coffee server and the silver sugar scuttle with the nest, what a great way to display some silver. The terreriam is gorgeous with the beautiful bird prints. All together the vignette is just gorgeous. Thanks so much for joining the party, this is just gorgeous and such fabulous eye candy. Hugs, Marty

  17. I love this tabletop. You really have a knack for pulling accessories together. I never would have thought to use a baby shoe and a nest together, but it really works. Your buffet/sideboard is a gorgeous piece of furniture!

  22. Martha, it all looks so pretty, and I love your chalkboard saying. If May wasn't just about over, I'd be borrowing that saying. The bird nest in the top of the baby shoe is so clever. laurie
