I have been having problems with the computer, need a new hard drive so there will be little text this week...I want to get this posted before it crashes again.
It's time to head out to Let's Dish at Cuisine Kathleen's. I wasn't sure exactly what an Earth Day tablescape was so I went with blues/greens/white. Sky, trees/plants and clouds along with insects! I hope you choose something a little simpler for a theme next time, Kathleen! Thanks for hosting...I know it takes a lot of your time, you invite us, and you take the time to visit...this is very much appreciated by all of your guests.

Very pretty table, Marigene! I love your Earth Day tablescape, pretty blues and greens!
Love it. bbb
I think you did a great job of depicting Earth Day in your tablescape. Your Bordallo Pinheiro pieces caught my eye immediately - love them! And the twiggy placemats are perfect. Cute dragonflies, and oh those ever-so-lovely Irises from your garden. The whimsical polka-dot tumblers are the perfect finishing touch.
Yeah, I didn't know where to start for the Earth Day tbale. You did a beautriful job. I love the dishes with the insect, just perfect. The banana leaf place mats are just the tright thing. You did an amazing job with your creation. Hugs,

I really enjoyed the blue and green combo. Very nice. Have a great weekend.
You did an awesome job! I love those colors and since I'm a dragonfly lover this especially made me smile! Hope your computer troubles get fixed soon! Hugs, Linda
Marigene! It seems like forever since I've been able to visit. This table is so perfect for Earth Day. I love your color combination. Those green chargers are amazing. Just love the dragonfly plates too. I took a peek below at your iris photos. So beautiful! Mine are blooming now too but you have so many great colors.
Hi Marigene!
Love those dragonfly plates! You have all the elements of what is needed for an Earth Day table... I think ;) Those glasses are really cute (great for summer) and go so well with this table setting.
I have some salad plates that are like your chargers... one day I might get around to using them. I forget what I have when they are in the cupboard lol.
Thanks for sharing this at my party!

Very pretty, Marigene! I love the dragonflies...Christine
Marigene, this is one of my favorite tables--I think it's the color combination of the blue and green, and those dragonflies (I love dragonflies) on the dishes are beautiful. I like the napkin rings too--very similar to mine this week except mine are pink! Happy Earth Day. The blue, green and brown are perfect. Linda
Love the dragonflies for Earth Day. This is the second time I've seen those scalloped place mats this week! I've got to see if our World Market carries them. They're beautiful.
Marigene,
I am quite smitten with the dragonfly plates! The blue & green is stunning on this tablescape! Iris from your garden are gorgeous!!! We went through the computer woes here earlier this year, too! Good luck!
Fondly,
Pat
No table for me this week as we were just catching up from Spring Break. I just love your table. The colors are so fresh and wonderful. That dragonfly on the plate is just exquisite. The detail is so beautiful and your fun napkin rings are perfect. Great Earth Day table!
Those dragonfly plates are really nice and set the tone for your whole table but those irises are the stars!

You thought that theme was hard? I mean it took in everything on Earth! You did a great job with it. Those dragonfly plates are fabulous! Love all the elements , the colors and textures.
And you are welcome. The worst part of doing a party is getting the post done on time and hoping the linky thing works! I say a prayer each time!
Thanks so much for linking to Let's Dish! Next month, Mom's Day, using something of your mom's on the table, or her fave color or flower.
Good luck with your computer! Mine is getting elderly!
Oh! Saw the dinner plates and salads that match your chargers today at HG's. They had the charger too, forgot to look how much, but the dinners were 5.99. I know you got a great deal on your chargers!
I think your table is beautiful, love the blue/green/brown colors all together ,perfect for Earth Day! My computer has been crashing when I try to visit a certain blog.....I hope it doesn't mean that I need a hard drive!! :/ xo
Pretty table setting. I've never seen blue cabbage leaf plates. Beautiful dishes in that stack. ;-)
Love the blues and greens in honor of our wonderful earth. The twiggy chargers look so earth too. Also love the firefly plates. Used to love fireflies as a kid. Now I am east of the MI and we don't get them. Happy Earth Day and have a great weekend. Joni
I love your entire cast on the table Marigene! Those dragonfly plates are calling my name, and I hope you'll show them again. I like what you did with the sky, trees, clouds and insects! The dragonfly napkin rings are perfect for this theme!!
Beautiful dishes Marigene. Love all the Bordallo. Wish I had some, I only have the yellow lemon pitcher. Wonder where everyone is buying it? Maybe ebay. That is the only place I am seeing it. Hope your computer hard drive is better or replaced. Thanks for sharing and stopping by.
Marigene,
What a wonderful table for Earth Day. I just love dragonflies. Love the blue.
Have a good day!

I adored those dragonfly plates..and your color combination was wonderful. How I would love to have some of those plates with leaves!

What a perfect Earth Day table! I have the same polka dotted glasses. I love the Bordallo Pinheiro plates...I've never seen them in blue before....so pretty!
Hi Marigene, I hope you get your computer problems resolved soon. Nothing more frustrating, right? I had a hacker last week and had problems with that.
Love your earth day tablescape with the blue and green! The place mats give a very woodsy look!
