Setting the Table for a Lady’s Brunch

Today I set the table for a small lady’s brunch at our home in Coastal Maine using:

  • Mixed blue and green thrifted dish patterns.
  • Antique pewter goblets and candlesticks from my mother’s collected pewter collection.
  • Thrifted blue glassware.
  • The cutest 4 gifted Beaumont Pottery lobster butter bowls.
  • Spring Hyacinth flowers in a thrifted McCoy vase.
  • Macrame placemats

And Cutlery Couture’s boutique Cocktail Collection pouches for our flatware, perfect for a lady’s brunch get-to-together.

Oh, and I picked up these vintage sherbert bowls at a barn sale a couple of weeks ago that I also added to our lady’s brunch table.

In case you missed it, check out Spring Thrifty and Things to see more of this month’s thrifted finds and how I used them in my decor.

A Story of Kindness and Gratitude

With all going on in our world today, I thought you may enjoy this story of kindness.

Last summer a local second-hand shop, The Fabulous Find shared a set of Beaumont Pottery lobster butter bowls on their Facebook page and I ran right over to snag them. I thought they would be so cute at our home in Maine for our summer lobster dinners.

BUT, they were gone by the time I arrived…

I shared this experience on my Instagram stories as part of our weekly series, Thrifting with the Gals.

And a few weeks later, one of my fabulous followers here (thank you again!) saw the same set at another antique store in New Hampshire and she bought them for me! We both figured someone scooped them up to resell, as you don’t see these every day…

We met up at Stonewall Kitchen for the handoff and I absolutely adore them and think of her every time I use them. I am so grateful for this thoughtfulness and generosity.

Let's Change the Way We Set the Table

I hadn’t seen or thought of Beaumont Pottery in years. It used to be made locally in York, Maine and my parents used to sell it at their gift shop at the Nubble, check out Coastal Maine Heritage | Embracing My Roots for more.

I remember having many of their pieces at our home growing up. So these lobster butter bowls are so special to have today.

Table Centerpiece

Let’s talk about the centerpiece.

I found this yellow McCoy pitcher for $15 at a Barn Sale in Rupert, Vermont. I shared all about it in the post Spring Thrifty and Things.

The color just screams spring!

Well, these Hyacinth in this yellow McCoy pitcher, what else can I say?

And they’re from the supermarket!

I had a few floppy orange tulips hanging around too so I combined them with the purple Hyacinth for a second spring flower arrangement at the end of the table.

It felt so nice on this dreary rainy day in Maine.

Colored Glassware

I love how colored glassware, vintage or new, can really jazz up a table.

Blue is my favorite, but how about these green champagne flutes on this Spring Table Setting Ideas | Green with Envy!

Blue and Green are a favorite of mine and just I love them paired together.

    I love the colors on your table. The vintage finds are perfection. I am so tired of white, white, white and no color table settings. Your wonderful taste and sense of style is always an inspiration.
