Gold Shamrocks on a St. Patrick's Day Tablescape

This was another tablescape that started out going one direction and ended up going another way. I was planning a green and white St. Patrick’s Day tablescape until I found this tablecloth at HomeGoods last week and decided I wanted to try to create a different tablescape around it. I see some people are re-selling it on Ebay right now.

I knew I wanted a gold shamrock of some kind on top of the plate stack. After googling gold shamrock, I found these four leaf clovers on Ebay and I bought the six, one at a time this past week. They are actually gold electroplate paperweights and they were made by Gerity in 1984.

The gold shamrocks are sitting on a small Fiesta salad plate in the color Shamrock. I have had these plates for several years. I bought them at Fiesta online I think.

The salad plate is sitting on a Fiesta dinner plate in the color Shamrock. If you read my blog you have seen Fiesta plates in various colors and sizes on my tablescapes many times. I have had these plates for several years. I bought them at Fiesta online I think.

I bought these gold metal chargers online at Crate and Barrel last year. Crate and Barrel never disappoints me, their products are well made and great quality.

This gold plated flatware set was a gift from Hubby a couple years ago. I had bought a cheap set of gold flatware several years ago. It was poor quality and the gold started flaking off. You get what you pay for! We found this set on major sale at Macys. It is made by Wallace and is called Mikasa Duchess Gold. I love the design on the handle.

I found the kelly green napkins on Amazon last week and the gold Shamrock napkin rings as well. I really wanted gold shamrock napkin rings for this table, I was so happy when I saw these!

I found these gold place card holders on Amazon early last year. They were made by Gray Bunny. A simple gold place card holder is good to have in your tablescape collection.

The gold Poly/Carb goblet on the left was made by Le Cadeaux and the pattern is called Fleur. We found them at a gift shop on one of our trips up the California coast a couple years ago but they were really expensive so we only bought a few of them. I had been looking for that color for a long time and after we got home, I found them much cheaper online so I bought a few more. The green plastic goblet on the right came from Pier 1 several years ago. If you read my blog, you have seen this goblet before a few times.

I knew I wanted the centerpiece to be a large shamrock of some kind. I googled large shamrock and found this wood one on Etsy. I actually bought three and Hubby glued them together so it would be thicker and he made a stand for them. The shamrock came unfinished and Hubby first painted it green for me and then I decided I wanted gold instead to match the tablecloth so he repainted it gold. He is a treasure!

I found the small leprechaun figures at a gift shop a few years ago. I decided to add them to the table for a bit of whimsy.

Time for a corned beef dinner!
