But for this table I felt it needed a bit more complexity, so rather than using the matching salad plates, the element that brought my whole concept together was the use of mis-matched vintage china, all with delicate pink floral trim.
I used fresh roses in two shades of pink, to firmly anchor the color palette of the table. I love the gentle blush pink for its softness and subtlety, yet the pop of fuchsia helps liven things up.
As I mentioned above there were two things I wanted to include from the very start. The second driving force that influenced the design of this table was the use of cherry blossoms as a stately centerpiece.
Riffing off the other pinks I brought out my favorite ruffled linen napkins in a barely-there blush pink that oozes charm. They’re gathered within a set of exquisite butterfly napkin rings with pretty pastel jewels in classic Easter egg tones.
