Spring Tablescape

Here's a Spring Tablescape I created on Saturday.  It was a pretty calm and lazy weekend.  Oh, and very gloomy outside here in Chicago.  So, why not make a colorful Spring tablescape to forget about the Winter weather.  I also wanted to enter something into the Maddycakes Muse Tablescape Contest and didn't have an entry to submit:)  Anyway, here is what I came up with.
Chair ties with gerbera daisy.
I hung ribbon and flowers over the table.  Colors were lime green, coral pink and turquoise blue.





I found the cute glitter egg stickers at the Dollar Tree.



I was trying to get a pic of what the whole thing looked like together but it came out really dark.  Also, there is too much going on in the background (bookshelves).  I had lime green fabric for a background but for the life of me could not get it to stay up (sigh).  Oh, well you kinda get it.




I used glue dots and glitter for the small votives and food coloring for the votives with the floating candles.




Ribbon on the tablecloth.
