What I love most about Spring are the pretty flowers! I picked up some pretty pink ranunculus from both the flower market and my own garden and put together this Spring French table setting!
This post may contain affiliate links meaning I make a few cents when you click.
When putting together this table, I initially used my Juliska “Country Estate” plates. But then I looked up on my bedroom wall and thought, ah ha! And the pink plates came down from the wall.
The plates are by Meissen and the pattern is “Purple Indian”. Based on the mark on the back, they are from around the 1850s!
The pink goblets are a recent antique mall score. They are vintage and made in France.
The table cloth is antique. It is a Madeira table cloth. The table cloth is made of organdy, applique, and embroidery. I’ve taken a close-up to show you the pretty details!
I love my vases! I hauled back the little bud vases with people from my trip to Paris last year. The pitcher in the center is new (an early birthday present!!) and is also from Astier de Villate. I just LOVE my new pitcher. The other little bud vases are Juliska and are retired.
I couldn’t stop photographing the flowers. They are so photogenic. Did you notice I hid some geraniums in the little bud vases?
This was the first year I have grown my own ranunculus. They are so pretty out in the garden; I hated picking them but then I brought them in and didn’t regret it!
I’ll end this post with a treat, would you like a raspberry macaron?

Pretty in Pink! I'm with you on all the spring flowers. They truly make me happy. I'm going to plant some ranunculus this year. I just picked up a couple of bags of bulbs and need to get them in the ground. Hope mine are half as pretty as your blooms.
The ranunculus are so pretty, I am so glad I planted them! This Fall I plan on planting a whole bunch more! Out here it is recommended to plant the bulbs in the Fall, don't know about your area! Thanks for the compliments!
Such a beautiful, feminine table, Angelina. The ranunculus are so pretty with those plates. My favorite is the tablecloth, just beautiful.
Have a great week.
Thanks very much Marigene! Wouldn't it be pretty at a tea party? I may need to host one now…
Grow your own ranunculus? OMG…they are stunning!!!
Yes!! It was my first time growing them. I am already plotting on what I'm going to plant in the Fall as I had NO IDEA they would do so well!
Oooh…. I don't know which flowers I like better, the embroidered ones or the fresh ones. Your table is beautiful.
Eilis, I agree! The embroidered ones at least are around much longer! Thanks!
Oh so pretty !!! Pink is one of my favorite colors and your flowers are gorgeous! I can't believe you grew them!
Jenna
Jenna, thank you! Pink is my favorite color (ironically followed by black, go figure). I grew some of the flowers, had to supplement with flower market ones! Next year I'm going to plant a TON more so I don't need to buy any!
I love every element of this table! The topper is spectacular.
Thank you very much!
Pink and ranunculus- gorgeous! Is it easy to grow them? I've never tried. Yours are amazing.
Thank you so much for sharing this beauty at Thoughts of Home on Thursday. You made me smile. 🙂
Yes they were really easy to grow – just took a bit of planning! So I planted them in October and waited… they one day I looked outside and they were blooming!
What a pretty tablescape. Love the pink flowers- ranaculus are so pretty. Love the Juliska pieces and the pretty tablecloth. The dishes and stemware are beautiful.
Thank you, liz!
So, here I am and I don't want to leave! You grow your own ranunculus too!
This is such a feminine and glorious beautiful table setting.
Thank you for joining us on Thoughts Of Home On Thursday!
Thanks, Jemma! I am glad you enjoyed it!
Such a lovely, lovely setting – everything is perfect! The tablecloth is so pretty with it's embroidery, and the plates, flowers, all is so pretty together. I wish I could grow ranunculus here. Just doesn't seem to do very well. Very pretty blossoms!
Thank you for your compliments! Sorry you were unable to grow ranunculus, I was surprised that I could!
What a beautiful table. That tablecloth is exquisite. Your post is such a happy addition to Thoughts of Home on Thursday. Thank you SO much for sharing the joy.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Thank you Laura!
So pretty – your plates are really beautiful and the flowers too. Pink is one of my favorite colors.
Thank you!

Oh! What a gorgeous table setting; I love everything, the Meissen antique plates are stunning, along with the flatware, glasses and that table topper is simply beautiful, right up my alley.
This loveliness in pink will also be perfect for Mother's Day.

Thank you very much! And you are right, it is perfect for Mother's Day!
That is a pretty table! I just want to scoop up all your flowers, those pretty plates and tablecloth and run with them to my house! So perfect for Spring.

Your tablecloth is spectacular! So beautiful. Your china, glassware are too. But your ranuculus are fabulous!!!
Thanks, Bonnie!!
