Setting the table for Mothers Day

Nothing says I love you more to a mom then taking the time to prepare a special meal with a place setting you have done yourself just for her. It can be as simple as a boiled egg and toast, a muffin or a bowl of cereal. The point is you did just for her. Here are some ideas to inspire you to pull this look together:

1 Mix and match plates, glasses, china and cutlery using your own flare depending on what you will be serving. Keep things simple if you have colourful accessories a plain tablecloth will work best. If the accesories are all one colour you can use a colourful tablecloth

2 Add some fresh flowers or even just a single bud,this will make the table inviting,any kind will do. If you don't have a vase use a glass or anything that will hold the flowers.

3 You can add a place setting card that you make yourself or small gift on the plate.Use your imagination and make it yours.

4 Make her chair special and stand out from the rest by wrapping it in a simple white tablecloth, I have a picture shown. I draped it over the chair and tied it in the back, it took 30 seconds and voila.

For all mothers in the world Happy Mothers Day!
