A Let's Bee Happy Tablescape

I have been wanting to redo my Bee tablescape from last year for a while. You can see it here. I wanted to use a yellow tablecloth and I found this yellow seersucker tablecloth at Macys this month. The bright blue placemats came from Juliska online a few years ago. I wish they still had them in different colors because they are well made.

I found the bee salad plates at HomeGoods last year. They have no label except made in china. I didn’t like the brightness of the white circle so I found bee table scatter (tiny wood bees) on Amazon and scattered them on the white circle, problem solved. I love the wicker pattern and the added flowers and bee designs are just enough.

The dark blue plate is by Ballard Designs, Southern Living. I think I bought them online at Ballard Designs a few years ago. I love the ruffled edge on these plates, I love plates that have an unusual rim design.

These sunflower dinner plates are made by Fiesta and I bought them at Macys about 6 years ago when I started tablescaping. I have these plates in a few different colors because they are a good plate to use for tablescaping as a basic dinner plate in a plate stack.

This is a Color Spectrum charger by Mikasa, the color is Sun Yellow. I bought these chargers on Ebay a few at a time because I love the quality and the strong colors. I have them in several colors now.

I saw this bee flatware on another tablescaper’s blog a few years ago and I finally decided that I had to have them. They are one of the reasons why I designed this tablescape originally. They are made by Wallace, pattern Napoleon Bee, and they are 18/10, really good quality. I love the bees on the end of the handles.

The yellow and white checked napkins came from Sur la Table, they sometimes have good sales on their table linens online. I found the blue napkins on Etsy. I was looking for napkins with a bee design and as soon as I saw the tiny bee design on these, I knew they would be perfect. I found the bee napkin rings after googling bee napkin ring, sometimes that really works when I need something special. They were made by PC Fallon Co.. The colors on these napkin rings work perfectly on this table.

The cobalt blue glass goblets came from The Vermont Country Store. They are made by Mosser in the United States and the pattern is Georgia. They are really heavy glass and very good quality. I have bought a few at a time over the years. I also have them in a beautiful dark green that I often use at Christmas time and they come in red as well. The yellow glass goblet was made by Noritake, it’s called Yellow Perspective. These were made between 1970 and 1983 and I found them on Ebay. I have this goblet in a cobalt blue and sage green.

Using a cookie jar for a centerpiece is such an easy choice. I found this bee hive cookie jar at HomeGoods in February before things changed and we couldn’t go shopping. It matched the plates that I bought last year. I have a tall pitcher and some other dishes in this pattern as well.

I bought this salt and pepper set last year when I bought the plates. I have a weakness for cute salt and peppers! I have had the small glass bee for many years. I started collecting glass animals when I was a child and continued until I ran out of room. This is part of that collection.

This cream pitcher and sugar bowl jumped in my cart when I bought the plates last year. Who could resist them, not I!

I love the way the yellow and blue colors play off each other! To see another all yellow table I created click here.
