A Raspberry and Pink Tablescape
Even though the primary color inside my home is blue, I do love using pink. Pink flowers, pink dishes, you name it! This was going to make a beautiful pink table setting. I picked up this beautiful raspberry pink tablecloth at Home Goods and couldn’t wait to style a table incorporating it. If you are a regular reader you know I love creating different table settings.
The Kate Spade dotted raspberry tablecloth would serve as the base for my raspberry and pink tablescape.
I took a faux eucalyptus garland and laid it down the center of the table to begin styling my creative centerpiece. I found this garland on Amazon. If you are planning a bridal shower, this is a way to make a beautiful floral arrangement.

When you add fresh flowers and fruits to the faux eucalyptus, no one will even notice that it is artificial. I picked up some grocery store roses in pale pink, deeper pink and variegated pink and white. I cut the stems short and put them into water tubes so they each had a water source. This makes for a nice floral centerpiece that is not the traditional one. I used similar items all the way down the centerpiece. If I had found pink peonies, they would also be a lovely addition to this beautiful tablescape.
I just tucked the roses into the garland hiding the water tubes beneath the leaves. Using the water tubes is such an easy way to add blooms wherever you might want them in your I spotted the lush ripe plums and cherries added those to my garland centerpiece. The place settings are the pattern Lace Point by Lenox. Although this pattern is discontinued, you can still buy it through Replacements. At the bottom of this post you will find links to all of the items for you to style your own pink tablescape.
Coupes were added to the top of each place setting filled with fresh raspberries. That way my guests won’t have to eat the centerpiece! Wouldn’t this be a perfect excuse for luxury girls night or a romantic table setting for a couple.
Instead of setting my dining table, I went to my wrap around porch for an alfresco dining experience. The next time I go for a pink tablescape I might go with white plates.
My everyday flatware was just fine with this place setting. This is Classic Shell by Oneida.
I added different layers with my cloth napkins, with a dusty pink ruffled napkin wrapped with a brighter pink napkin and then tied with a satin pink ribbon. The pink pop from the table linens is what really makes everything else stand out. For special occasions the pink theme with the pink flowers and raspberries a beautiful combination. The drinking glasses on the table are simple clear crystal goblets to not detract from the color and pattern on the table.
To finish off my centerpiece, I tucked in clusters of babies breath.
The placemats are a Pier 1 purchase from years ago. They are made of faux boxwood. I just love using fine china in the outdoors!
Consider adding fruits or vegetables to your centerpieces for a creative difference that will impress your guests! Â

Consider using pink charger plates or a pink dinner plate. Using rose gold flatware might be another way to play up the pink which has been one of the biggest trends in recent years.
