Spring Birthday Luncheon with a Garden Bird Theme



Place card holder and take home gift.

We had so much fun putting together this table scape for  Mom's 75th Birthday luncheon.  We weren't sure what our inspiration would be until we found the
wire bird house at a garden nursery.  Once we decided that was the centerpiece, the rest took shape.  A few table runners were made using bird fabric.  A collection of decorative bird eggs and nests were gathered and scattered on the runner.   Photo napkin rings, with an assortment of photo's of Mom, were placed at each place setting and a tiny bird egg was glued on each frame using a glue gun.  It can easily be removed to change the theme.  "Spirit" quote cards added a conversation element for the guests.  After lunch, the ladies took turns opening their cards and reading the quote.  It added a memory to this special day.  Stay tuned for a few more ideas we used in hosting Mom's Birthday luncheon.
