Traditionally used for weddings, holidays, and special occasions, they’re also a fun way to elevate your everyday table settings with a touch of personality. From rustic burlap to whimsical seasonal prints, these little pouches pack a big punch in vintage-inspired table decor.

Here are a few things to know about silverware pouches:

Cutlery Couture Cocktail Collection for a Fun and Festive Table

Today I’m setting the table for a casual ladies’ brunch using the Cutlery Couture Cocktail Collection—and it’s such a conversation starter! This playful set features four iconic drinks: a martini, piña colada, margarita, and Bloody Mary, all stitched onto charming burlap silverware pouches.

It’s a fabulous way to add a splash of personality to your everyday table setting or bring some fun to your next gathering with friends.

Vintage-Inspired Table Setting for a Coastal Ladies Brunch

Today I styled a charming ladies’ brunch table setting at our Home in Coastal Maine, layering together some of my favorite vintage and thrifted finds for a relaxed but elevated vibe. Here’s what I used to bring this spring table to life:

And the star of the table? Cutlery Couture’s Boutique Cocktail Collection silverware pouches, each one featuring a fun design—martini, piña colada, margarita, and Bloody Mary. These hand-sewn burlap pouches instantly elevated our table with personality and charm, making each place setting feel special.

Oh—and I couldn’t resist adding in the prettiest vintage sherbet bowls I scored at a recent barn sale.

They’re delicate, unique, and just the right finishing touch for this vintage spring table setting.

Spring Centerpiece Ideas with a Vintage McCoy Pitcher

No spring table is complete without a cheerful floral centerpiece—and this one started with a $15 vintage yellow McCoy pitcher I found at a Vermont barn sale (shared in my Spring Thrifty and Things post). The soft yellow glaze is pure spring sunshine and pairs perfectly with the colorful silverware pouches at each place setting.

To keep things simple and seasonal, I filled the pitcher with a mix of purple hyacinths and a few floppy orange tulips, which added just the right amount of whimsy. At the end of the table, I created a second arrangement using the leftover blooms for a casual, collected feel. It was the perfect pop of color on a gray, rainy day here in Maine—and reminded me why I love decorating with vintage finds and fresh flowers.

Decorating with Vintage Glassware for a Colorful Spring Table

One of my favorite ways to bring personality to a spring table setting is by mixing in colored glassware—whether it’s thrifted, antique, or new. On this table, I layered thrifted blue glassware with my mother’s antique champagne flutes and heirloom pewter goblets, creating a blend of old and new that sparkles with vintage charm.

The blue and green color palette is one I always come back to—it’s calming, fresh, and perfect for spring. I especially love how the silverware pouches pick up the blue tones and tie everything together across the table.
