A Wells Tablescape

My goodness I have been sitting on this tablescape for some time now!  Our beloved friend Jeff took these pictures when he and his wife Erin came up for a visit at our cottage Memorial Day weekend.  He is such an amazing photographer!  We all keep telling him he needs to start his own blog. :)
When we bought this cottage it came furnished and this table had the platter and faux tulips.  My DMIL found the seashell salt 'n pepper shakers for us.  The cottage has a lemon, pale blue, spring green color scheme throughout.  Very relaxing.
My mom had made four placemats years ago when I had first gotten my own place.  They aren't my colors typically, but they are beautiful and my mom made them so of course I kept them.  They are a perfect match for the cottage!  She musta' known I would need them someday. :) 
The cottage did not come with a stocked kitchen, so we had fun buying dishes 'n such at the local Rene's.  Nothing fancy or expensive 'cause we rent out this cottage from the beginning of June to the end of August and we didn't want the renters (or us) to worry when dishes got broken.  Noticed I said when- we know either we will break something or someone else will. :)  Vacation time shouldn't be spent worried about stuff, it should be about making fun memories.
Thanks for stopping by today!  Hope you enjoyed this tablescape.  I'm off to see all your inspirational posts...

Oh before I go, here's where I set my table:
Between Naps on the Porch- Tablescape Thursday
No Minimalist Here- Open House Party
