A Pineapple Delight Summer Tablescape
I can’t remember how the idea for this tablescape started. I have had the pineapple centerpiece for a couple of years now and I have had the idea of a pineapple tablescape in the back of my mind since I got it. I found the Ambesonne yellow and white pineapple tablecloth on Amazon a few weeks ago.
You can see the tablecloth design better in this photo.
I did a Google search looking for pineapple salad plates a few weeks ago and these plastic pineapple bowls popped up on Etsy. I love the bright yellow color.
There are certain color combinations that seem to appear often on my tablescapes and yellow and green is one of those combinations. I love the way they look together. This dinner plate is a Fiesta dinner plate in the color Shamrock. The Fiesta color Shamrock has been discontinued but you can still find them on the secondary market. I have this plate pattern in several different colors and I use them often on my plate stacks. I bought this one several years ago, maybe online at the Fiesta site.
I love the bright yellow color on this charger. It is a Color Spectrum charger by Mikasa, the color is called Sun Yellow. I bought these chargers on Ebay a few at a time as I saw them because I loved the quality and the color. They were discontinued at some point. I have this charger in several colors and I use them often.
Seems like every time I use this frosted green flatware I get questions and comments about it. It is called Madeline Green and I bought the set at World Market several years ago. If you google frosted flatware and add the color you are looking for, you will find similar sets. I use this green flatware often in the Spring, Summer, and Fall. If you are a tablescaper, this is a color that you should have in your flatware collection. You will use it often. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying flatware here.
I think these green cotton napkins probably came from Pier 1 or HomeGoods many years ago. I love the bright green color. I found the pineapple napkin rings on Ebay a few weeks ago. They were orange but Hubby painted them yellow for me and repainted the green leaves.
These yellow metal pineapple tablecloth clips came from Oriental Trading online. Hubby painted them a different yellow color and then cut off part of the metal clip so I could use them as place card holders. They are sitting on a clear glass square place card holder.
These green goblets are both acrylic. I bought the green goblet on the left a couple of years ago online at Home Depot. They are made by Certified International and they come in other colors too. The one on the right came from our Pier 1 store before it closed several years ago. If you are a tablescaper, this is a color that you should have in your goblet collection. You will use it often. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying goblets for your tablescaping collection including the colors that I use most often here.
This heavy plastic wicker pineapple came from HomeGoods several years ago. It needed a bit more substance to it so after much trial and error I added leaves from our bird of paradise plant to it, after painting them a brighter green, to beef it up a bit. The pineapple is sitting on a green drink dispenser stand that I bought at Pottery Barn several years ago.
I added a pineapple salt and pepper set to the table that I found on Amazon last week.
For another pop of green I added my Circle Depression Glass salt and pepper set to the table also.
