I will be using ideas from several other tablescapes that I saw on Pinterest for my Easter dining table in the next week or two. I hope you come back to see them.....

That's a sweet story you shared from your youth, we all have a lesson we've learned the hard way, don't we? Thank you for sharing this at my History & Home link party, take care.

I love your peacock plates and your gorgeous peacock feather glasses are delightful. The tablecloth you used is beautiful and I love the colours.<br />I see a lot of peacocks when I visit New Delhi, India, wandering around the Nature Reserve, I only mention that, because your beautiful tablecloth reminds me of cloth which can be bought in India.... so very lovely.<br />You are very clever at tablescaping.... there is so much to take in and enjoy..... your table is a feast for the eyes.<br />I was just reading some of your other comments, where you talked about you and your friends wearing pink when riding around in your car. That brought a smile to my face.

You really have an eye for thrifting!<br /><br />What a wild and heart-wrenching story about the peacock! My goodness! To buy him after wanting him for so long, and then never to be able to put him on display...just gut wrenching on this end! It really got to me, too, that the young man sold you his car because he was headed off to Vietnam. I hope he made it back OK.<br /><br />Terrific table, Candy!
