The bunnies pulling the egg carts are still a favorite of mine. I have had them for years.  A new checkered egg sits in the cart.

We do have rabbits in our garden – jack rabbits, that is. They aren’t as cute as these rabbits here!

Today I’m so excited to share with you a pretty in pink vintage Valentine’s Day tea party as part of a vintage Valentine’s Day Blog hop!! ! If you are coming over from Adirondack Girl At Heart, welcome!

Valentine's Day Tea Party

You can add your Valentine’s Day posts at the end of this post up until Valentine’s Day!!  Also, a big thank you to Amber from Follow The Yellow Brick Home for arranging this blog hop!

For this tea party, I used my favorite tea pot – this Mackenzie Childs tea pot!  I love the black and white check against the pink and green!

Valentine's Day Tea Party Idea

I gathered up my vintage tea cups for this tea party.  The tea cup with the wreath is actually a chocolate cup – but I don’t care! Tea, chocolate… we can drink what we want from it! The cup is by Dresden.

The black plate on the bottom left is from Juliska and I love that it appears vintage – but it is microwave and dishwasher safe!  (similar one here)

Valentine's Day Tea Party Idea

A Valentine’s day tea party would not complete without chocolates! These truffles I purchased solely because I loved the box! haha!  The lace runner is antique – keeping with today’s vintage theme!
Valentine's Day Laduree chocolates and macarons

For the centerpiece I used an antique American brilliant cut glass pitcher.  Want to know a secret?? The tulips here are actually faux tulips – great for using in cut glass vases because there are no water lines left over that are difficult to scrub out!

Pink Valentine's Day Tea Party

A tea party at Petite Haus would not be complete without macarons and madeleines!   When I don’t feel like baking them, I buy the madeleines at Costco and the macarons at Trader Joe’s. Valentine's Day Pink tea party

I realized that this little tea party is a great idea for bridal showers.  Jordan almonds are in the little pink box below.

Carnations are such a pretty flower with a fresh scent. They last a long time too – great budget option for flowers.   I love using vintage tea cups as vases – also a great idea for bridal showers.romantic pink table centerpiece - perfect for tea parties, bridal showers and weddings

One last look at my little tea party.  The little pink plate is vintage Limoges.  Okay, enough pictures! It’s time to eat!

A Gingerbread Christmas Table Setting

Gingerbread Christmas Table SettingWe use affiliate links in our posts and our site. This means if you make a purchase using these links, we may earn a small commission. You don’t pay a cent more than you would otherwise! Our full disclosure is available under About.

The theme for my Christmas table this year was inspired by my Christmas tablecloth – a Gingerbread Christmas table!

Gingerbread Christmas Table Setting

We picked up this tablecloth several years ago at Williams-Sonoma.   I love the gingerbread houses on it!  Then I had a lightbulb! Ah ha! I’ll put gingerbread houses on my table!Gingerbread Christmas Table Setting

Last year during the after Christmas sales, I found these adorable gingerbread house napkin ring holders!

Gingerbread Christmas Table Setting

I had attempted to bake my own gingerbread houses from scratch for this.  It was a fail.  I rolled them too thick and then the icing was a bit too thin.  Needless to say, they fell apart despite my best efforts.  Oh well. I found these cute gingerbread houses instead.  Don’t they look real? Had me fooled in the store!

Gingerbread Christmas Table Setting

A few of the gingerbread remain though from my baking – so it wasn’t a complete disaster!

Here is a good look at the table cloth! I just adore it.  The trees have elements of the 12 days of Christmas in it!Gingerbread Christmas Table Setting

My favorite Christmas punchbowl has been the Christmas centerpiece since I bought it.  I am sure it will be the centerpiece for years!  It is filled with pomanders and cinnamon sticks. Smells delightful as you can imagine!Gingerbread Christmas Table Setting

Fresh cedar garland remains – however I will have to move it when my relatives show up for Christmas so I can seat more at the table!

Gingerbread Christmas Table Setting

A few plates of sweets decorate the table too.  I notice I eat the most sweets per day in December above all the months.

You can see the matching napkins that go with the tablecloth.

Setting a French Country Table with Peonies and Sweet Peas

In this post – Setting a French Country Table with Peonies and Sweet Peas

This post may contain affiliate links.

Peonies are my favorite flower, as you all know! I named my blog after them!

 Then on the way home with the peonies, we pulled over to pick some strawberries from a local stand and they had sweet peas too!

 

Setting this French country style table was simple.  I pulled out a French linen runner for the center.

 

I used two small Juliska vases to hold the sweet peas.

 

The colors of the sweet peas are so pretty! Prettier than the ones at the store!

 

The blue goblets go with the runner.  I also love the new plates from Aerin at WS.

 

Each place setting has a sweet pea nestled on the plate.

 

I just love peonies. They are so photogenic!

 

The peony season is short lived so I had to take many photos!

 

The sweet peas only lasted 2 days! I couldn’t believe how short-lived they were!

French Country Spring Table Setting

I love Spring – it is one of my favorite times of year!  This year I had so much fun at the flower market picking out flowers for this table.  

Recently I have been drawn to the color orange – I wrote about that here in my coral/persimmon inspiration post. I think it is because the orange makes blue look even better!

I love using my tulipiere.

It is such an usual vase.

The tulipiere is filled with three different colors of ranunculus and two-toned tulips.

Little sprigs of Muscari finish the look and their bright blue goes so well with the oranges and peach colors!

I took a hundred pictures. I couldn’t stop snapping.

Snap snap snap.

The pink goblets are vintage French.

The blue plate and goblet are Juliska.

I found these in the drawer and forgot I had them – oops, should have used them for the Easter table!

Oh well, this is a Spring table and let me tell you – we have *hundreds* of rabbits around here.

Jack rabbits – not the cute fluffy kind.

These rabbits have snaggle teeth and huge pointy ears – and boy can they run!

Yah… run into my garden and eat it if the fence gate is open!

Snap snap snap.

I wish the flowers would stay like this forever and not wilt.

About these tea light candle holders – they were bronze in color but we painted them years ago. I try to envision again how they look in bronze.

The table cloth goes nicely with the pinks and blues!

The table cloth is antique.  It is a Madeira table cloth.  It is made of organdy, applique, and embroidery.

Snap snap snap.

Don’t you love the blue with the orange? J’adore.

Ok maybe I should have edited this post and taken one of these photos out.

But I can’t. I love them all.

This table is perfect for the Spring – but could easily convert to a Fall table with changing of the table cloth and the candle holders!

Fall Table Setting 2015

Since it’s October and officially a few weeks into Fall, I am finally ready to share my Fall tablescape! I am just loving the look of it this year!

I have a few new things… the antique dough bowl in the center! This puppy is HUGE.  It’s also a genuine antique. A lot of them are reproduction but mine came from a reputable antique dealer in Oregon who tells us this is from the 1800s likely made in Pennsylvania. It is carved from one solid piece of wood! Amazing! I filled it with a variety of pumpkins, my favorite being the red-orange cinderella pumpkin in the center! A few pieces of Indian corn are arranged on top (credit to the husband – I asked him to set them on the centerpiece, don’t they look nice?)

 

New this year are the dried wheat stalks from Tuesday Morning as well as my new favorite thing… mini pumpkin cocottes made by Staub! Aren’t they just the cutest? We’ve been serving up soup in them! The Staub pumpkins sit on my favorite Juliska “Country Estate” plates!

My Mom found this cute little squirrel salt and pepper shaker! He seemed like a perfect fit for Fall!

 I love how the Staub pumpkin matches the real pumpkins! The deep purple hues from the napkin and goblets also match some of the deep purple in the Indian corn!

Oh, did I mention, this dining table is new too? It’s from Restoration Hardware. We’ve had our eyes on it for several years but it was above our price range… until one day we found at the RH Outlet for almost 25% of the original price. And there is no damage to it! Talk about a bargain!

I am thinking this table setting could go straight into Thanksgiving, but let’s face it, you all know I’m going to rearrange things for a new Thanksgiving table setting, right?
