I was really inspired by the simple (but beautiful) tablescape featured on Sunday Suppers yesterday. The occasion was a fresh vegetarian feast, so they kept the table simple with white plates, green striped napkins, pretty menu cards, and an abundance of potted succulents.

I loved seeing the burro's tail succulent as part of the decor (bottom left). Q's mom gave us one recently and it has become a favorite. It grows quickly, and if any buds fall off they can be planted in another pot to start a new burro's tail (so you could have a whole house full if you'd like..).

Do you want my burro's tail? It's the bane of my existence!!! It drops those leafy things like a teenager drops tears. I can't even dust around it. Grr.
I have to admit, the leafy type of cactus is one of my fall back plants so that I can have green indoors year round. Really enjoy the way these ones are displayed as center pieces at a dining table!
Hi pleased to meet you
loving your blog
come pay a visit some time
I love the use of those plants! Very pretty.
so, so pretty. i love the idea of succulents as centerpieces!
I love this idea for a centrepiece - it would be an easy (and inexpensive!) way to always have something fresh at the table at home too!
Oh..so they are called succulents. I grew some for a project when I was in middle school in Taiwan. Using them as centerpieces is an interesting idea.
Ooh! Love this table setting.
I must have a burro's tail succulent! Gorgeous table!
succulents are so simple, but really bring a sense of calm to a setting (i think). the table above looks superb! hope i can work this idea in this summer. thanks again alli!
