lemons and ivy are always a great idea!

Just in time for Mother’s Day and summer are these new prints and patterns from Pacific & Rose in a happy palette of Lemons and Ivy!

Let’s start with the Lemon pattern, shall we?

One can’t help feel a sense of happiness with this new tablecloth and matching napkins. Accessorize with a few fresh lemons and flowers, and the look is complete!

Easy as lemon meringue pie, a table runner and matching lemon place mats instantly add loads of charm to your dining space, indoors or out!

Note the unique quality of all these table linens and accessories that are hand block-printed by artisans at the fair-trade workshop in Jaipur, India.

Just like the Lemon print, the new Ivy print is an instant classic! Here I’ve styled a table out in the backyard. It’s a cozy spot between the ivy wall of the house and a small apple tree.

And how about those pretty white snapdragons? I grew them myself this year in my cut flower bed along with these pretty blush colored Desdemona roses.

I added a little ivy from the wall to the table as a nod to this pretty pattern!

As soon as I saw this new Ivy pattern, I thought how lovely it would look with my vintage Franciscan Ivy plates.

Just like the ones Lucy & Ricky used for years on I Love Lucy!

What’s not to love?!

The Snowball Viburnum flowers are from my cottage garden, and easily arranged in a vintage white ironstone pitcher. I love how they look with the soft green tones of the pretty Ivy table runner.
