Primary Colors For A Spring Brunch!

Hey everyone-Happy Tablescape Thursday! While we generally associate spring with lighter colors and pastels, Mother Nature does provide some primary colors in flowers!
The dark red in this tablecloth matches my Rubyware well!

I used the short vintage vase as a candle holder, I like it!

I'm joining Fresh Cut Friday with some fresh "dug" flowers out of the yard. 
These cute little Tete-a-Tete's in the Fenton basket will be headed back outside and carefully replanted. 

Here's a shot of the fun tablecloth, an Ebay reproduction.

And Earl says...
Always make time to stop and smell the flowers!
Have a happy day:@)

    Lynn, I love your ruby glass. I was online earlier researching this very thing! It's so handsome, and so is our friend Earl in the daffodils. LOL! Love your Fenton basket and vintage cloth, too. They are neat!

    Happy Tablescape Thursday to you...

    XO,

    Sheila :-)

    I just love ruby glass! So pretty! My grandmother had a huge collection of it. What a find that tablecloth is! Goes so good with the glasses. The daffodils are so cute. I can't wait for mine to pop up. Love Earl out and about in the flowers too! He is such a fun loving piggie!

    Lynn, what a beautiful table and you are so clever to pull up the bulbs for the table and then replant them. They are so adorable, I love their tiny blossoms! Your tablecloth is just gorgeous and the ruby glasses and dishes are fantastic. What is it about red and yellow? Both are such happy colors.
    Have a great day! Earl just never seems to look any older (you can tell him I said that!)
