Mother's Day Table

          This is our Sunday Morning Mother's Day table. It was a process and I will start from the beginning.....

                The Plan.....
             Mother's Day Brunch at our house was decided when Retail had me schedule for 2pm. Sister was awesome - she was looking for reservations for us, because we all know that waiting for a table without reservations is an hour + long wait. That didn't happen so Plan B. I started with thinking: fresh flowers; Retail had some beautiful Roses and on the morning I was going to buy them, I woke knowing that the mini bunches faux flowers I bought Thursday was the ones I wanted. Sis put together a few buffet dishes (lox & cheese was oh so scrumptious) and kids brought other yummies.

            So back to Joann's to see if I could get more mini bunches to line down the center of table. Naturally the same color was not there so I hoped the ones I found would work. Oh they where in the clearance section - half off .... Score!!!

         The vase...

   

            This was a fun chase.  The 2 vases that are off to the side are a Goodwill find and when I bought the flowers on Thursday I knew that this was where they would be, either on my beside or in the bathroom. Only to have the line down the center of table I not only need more flowers but more vases, I wanted 5 mini arrangements. Retail didn't have any, Joann's didn't have any, Hobby Lobby was my next stop. Yes, they had some, just only one style vase, so being creative I knew that 2 of the corked bottles would work  (the third one was to make a balanced  Cork Bottle arrangement, if I ever made one - Beach???)

       The arrangement....

            Sis isn't a more is better kinda girl when it comes to Table, so the Plan was keep it Simple

            Adding the Pink Roses for balance.

                       

           The Sign.....

           It was to be a ' Mom your the greatest' kinda sign but Ester here spoke to me. There is nothing that says Mom in this sign, only it reminds us that ...' (who knows) perhaps this is the moment (made queen) for which you have been (a time such as this) created ', Ester 4:14. NLT.

                 The end results.....

      
                 Sis added the Sunflowers. Something I would want - maybe not the Sunflowers but something green, ivy.  Beautiful and perfect.

                       The moment in which we were created for....  to be loved by God.


                               until next table,
