Today I am excited to be joining a talented group of bloggers, as we share our collected spring tablescapes with you! If you are joining me from Rachel over at The Ponds Farmhouse, welcome! Rachel is such an inspiration to me with all her DIY’s, vintage decor, and thrifting in a farmhouse between her two-family ponds down a mile-long dirt road in North Carolina. She creates a beautiful timeless table too, like this one here!
Today I want to welcome you to our Home in Coastal Maine! Be sure to check out its history and story and join me in the featured blog series In My Mother’s Home.
When the girls and I got together to share spring tablescapes, I knew immediately that I wanted to share my mother’s pink and white Theodore Haviland Limoges, France china collection In My Mother’s Home. It’s so beautiful and perfect for both Valentine’s Day and spring!
I wrote this blog post on a cold snowy day in February here in Maine. Which had me craving fresh flowers. A quick trip to Trader Joe’s, and I came home with these simply beautiful white tulips that I used for the centerpiece in an $8 thrifted pitcher.
Here I added a pink depression glass pitcher and matching glassware to the table that I also thrifted for $18. It paired perfectly with the antique china onto this styled timeless table.

I have always adored macrame. So when I found these macrame placemats at a local shop, I couldn’t resist. I love the soft whimsical look it adds to the table.

My mother’s sterling silverware has always been a favorite of mine. However, today I wanted to try something a bit different. I added gold flatware instead, which matched beautifully with the gold trim on the Theodore Haviland china.
In the background here, you can see another collected antique transferware dish collection displayed in the corner hutch, which was also collected by my mother over the years. Check more of it out here! I love using this antique set in the fall and winter seasons paired with my mother’s extensive pewter collection. Here, you can see another timeless table I styled using both the transferware and the pewter together.
Candles are always a beautiful addition to a table. I added four glass candlesticks collected by my mother with simple white tapered candles to match the tulips.
