This week the tablescape is Easter Champagne Brunch. It was supposed to be on the back porch but the wind didn’t want to cooperate. After the vase fell over and got water on my tablecloth, I decided to move it inside! Be sure to join me tomorrow for a special Good Friday edition of A Southern Life.
These are my pink and white dishes. They are stoneware and I love them for their versatility.
The champagne (or technically sparkling wine) is from Spain. It is Castillo Prelada Brut Reserva. It is a good inexpensive sparkling wine that is great to make mimosas with.
The pretty flower bowls are not part of the dish pattern. I got these at Tuesday Morning years ago. Aren’t they cute?
I love the lace detail on the napkins.
