I love flowers, so I always look forward to creating the Shavuos tablescape. When I visited Tali’s Global Flower Shop in Lakewood for the first time, I was taken by its spacious, bright, and airy garden-like decor. I knew that I wanted to share that experience with you by setting up this table in the shop in honor of Shavuos.

I chose a white eyelet and a lavender velvet fabric at Stitch n’ Sew, which they sewed into a tablecloth and a liner for me. I love the versatility of these two materials. I can use the velvet alone, or I can switch to a different color liner for another occasion. Since the velvet was wider than the eyelet, I had them remove the extra fabric from the width and sew it into napkins.

I knew I wanted to use a floral plate for this table. At first I tried to find one at HomeGoods, but when I couldn’t find one that I liked, I rethought my plans and decided that even if I had found what I was looking for, the rest of you might not be able to find it! With that in mind, I got these gorgeous white plates by Godinger and created a floral download, which I copied on transparency paper and simply placed on top of the plate.
