Leprechauns on a St. Patrick's Day Tablescape

This is a fairly simple St. Patrick’s Day Tablescape. I did it three years ago but I made a few changes for this one. I have been a bit under the weather this past week so I decided to go simple for this one. I think I bought the sage green tablecloth online on a tablecloth site several years ago but I can’t remember where.

Bordallo Pinheiro Shamrock Salad Plate

This green shamrock salad plate was made in Portugal by Bordallo Pinheiro. I really love these plates. I have six and I have bought them one by one on Ebay over the past few years as well as some others that are the same pattern with a round shape. Finding them all has been difficult and I am still looking for a few more. Read about what you need to consider when shopping for salad plates here.

This white dinner plate is called Oakdale White and was made by Fitz and Floyd. I think I found them at HomeGoods several years ago. I like the braid design around the rim.

This charger was made by Mikasa and it is called Color Spectrum in Hunter Green. I love this charger, it is heavy and a great color. I have several others in other colors. I bought them all a few at a time on Ebay.

Celtic Crusader Flatware

This heavy stainless flatware is labeled Helmick/O.M.C. and the pattern is called Celtic Crusader. I have learned to buy 18/10 stainless when I can because with cheaper quality flatware sometimes the fork tines have not been filed and are really sharp. I always test flatware by touching the fork tines to see what they feel like. I love the way this flatware looks, it is heavy, really shiny, and it is perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. I bought it a few place settings at a time over a couple of years a few years ago on Amazon and other online sites. Read about what you need to consider when shopping for flatware here.

These green metal shamrock napkin rings came from Etsy last December. I have had the vintage white damask napkins for several years. They probably came from Ebay. Damask napkins always remind me of my mother, she loved damask tablecloths and napkins. You can read my blog post about how to store napkin rings and place card holders here.

I found these shamrock place card holders on Ebay last month. Can’t remember where I found the place cards. I finally organized my place cards drawer and they popped out!

Waterford Lismore

The clear goblet on the left is my wedding crystal, Lismore, by Waterford. The Lismore Collection was launched in 1952 and now, 70 years later, it is the only design from this period that still remains. Of all of Waterford Crystal's cuts Lismore is the most loved. The light green goblet on the right was made by Noritake and it is called Sweet Swirl in light green. These were made between 1985 and 2005, I found them on Ebay.

Mr. Leprechaun

I love Mr. Leprechaun. Can’t remember where I got him, he comes in two parts. I love his kind face and cute bow tie. He’s standing on a white plastic short cake stand. It probably came from HomeGoods. I bought the two resin leprechauns last year somewhere but I don’t remember where. I like their cute faces and all the detail, gold buckles and all! I used them on last week’s tablescape too.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
