Looking for Mothers Day table setting ideas? Remembering mom and how to create a stunning blue and white table arrangement using antique blue dinnerware.
Mother’s Day Table Setting Ideas
Creating a beautiful table setting for Mother’s Day is a thoughtful way to show appreciation for your mom or any special mother figure in your life. Here are some ideas to inspire your Mother’s Day table decor:
The most important aspect of your Mother’s Day table setting is the love and effort you put into creating a meaningful and memorable experience for your mom. Tailor the decor to her taste and preferences to make it truly special.
In my case, my mother is no longer with us, so I embraced these blue and white vintage dishes to decorate this Mother’s Day table setting, which I knew my mother would love, In My Mother’s Maine Home.
I found this set of antique Enoch Wood’s English dinnerware while Thrifting with the Gals a couple of years ago. It’s one of my favorite thrifted pieces of dinnerware. We use it as our everyday dishes at our home in Coastal Maine.
And I know my mother would have adored it. Blue was her favorite color, and I set this Mother’s Day table setting today in blue for her.
Enoch Wood’s English Scenery / Wood & Sons 1784
Enoch Wood’s English Scenery Wood & Sons dishes are a true reflection of timeless beauty and craftsmanship. These exquisite dishes showcase the scenic beauty of the English countryside, capturing the essence of nature in their intricate designs. Each piece is meticulously crafted with attention to detail, featuring delicate floral patterns, picturesque landscapes, and charming countryside scenes.
The Enoch Wood’s English Scenery collection by Wood & Sons includes a wide range of dishes, such as dinner plates, salad plates, bowls, and serving platters. Made with fine bone china, these dishes exude elegance and sophistication.
Whether used for everyday meals or special occasions, Enoch Wood’s English Scenery Wood & Sons dishes add a touch of elegance and charm to any table setting.
It is a beautiful blue and white porcelain 4 piece place setting that I purchased for $68 at Stone House Antique Center in Chester, Vermont.

Cutlery Couture
I discovered Cutlery Couture’s boutique silverware pouches last summer when a friend gifted me their lobster pouches. Cutlery pouches are an ideal table accessory to elevate your Mother’s Day table settings. They have several patterns to choose from, and I chose the blue hydrangeas to accompany this day’s antique blue tablescape.
Blue Glassware
One of my favorite tablescape accessories is to add colorful glassware. Like these vintage blue goblets that I thrifted. The goblets accent the antique blue dinnerware with a coastal vibe and are brilliant for spring, too. Learn more in the Antique Amethyst Glassware: A Hidden Gem post.

Pewter
My mother adored a large pewter collection. When I went to set the table in blue, I loved how the pewter paired so beautifully with the blue and white antique dishes! The foundation of each Mother’s Day place setting is now a large pewter plate.

Mother’s Day Table Setting Centerpiece
Because today is the first day of spring, I will add some colorful tulips that I picked up at the local grocery store yesterday. The teapot is also a thrifted blue and white piece that I picked up for around $12, I believe, to help me set this Mother’s Day table in blue.
Candlesticks
Next, I chose to add a couple of antique pewter candlesticks from the same antique hutch, along with simple white tapers, to our Mother’s Day table setting.

My favorite color is blue too! I do tend to have lots of blue around in our home and am particularly drawn to blue glass. This table setting is fantastic!
Thank you so much, Joanne! I am so glad I went back and bought the dishes!
I am on the hunt for blue and white dishes because of you Ann! I just love this beautiful table. Thank you for the inspiration.
