Pretty in pink Shades of pink make for the prettiest Spring table ... perfect for a Spring al fresco lunch Stylish tablescapes Aloes and Proteas in hot summer shades. Cool Amalfi Coast inspiration. Tables with blue and white willow pattern plates, with green cabbageware, with pink Spode crockery and local linen. Half the beauty of having a lunch or dinner is setting the table, says Susan Greig ... and is giving us the most marvellous inspiration through her Instagram Table Tops posts. Her tablescapes really are fabulous ... she mixes old with new, pricey with cheap-andcheerful, layering textures and colours and adding loads of flowers ... many straight from the garden. She’s worth following ... you’ll find her stories on susan_greig. Once your table’s looking grand, click on Susan’s website and book for one of her cooking classes. You (and your guests) can thank us later. Oh ... and she stocks some of the crockery she uses ... ask her about it.

Getting the look Susan has used the Serena Ikat print in pink and red on oatmeal linen from Botanica Trad- ing as her tablecloth (botanicatrading.com or via Instagram). We’re thinking of going classically French, with this provincial stripe tablecloth (from R1085 depending on size), and the Mungo Huck Kitchen Cloth (R240) for napkins, both from mungo.co.za (where you’ll find loads more lovely table linen). On her table, Susan has used her Spode crockery (we’re green with envy), but we’re using platters and plates from the Maxwell and Williams Contessa range, alongside this, this lovely, palest pink New York Stoneware, which we found at Mr Price Home (R19.99 - R29.99). Tip: Now’s the time to go through gran’s kitchen cupboards! We adore these La Rochere Lyonnais amethyst goblet glasses, inspired by the Florentine Renaissance. R594 for set of six (and free delivery). And from British lifestyle designer Katie Alice, this embossed glass goblet is all blooming English country gardens and vintage heirlooms. R199 each. Both from yuppiechef.com. The Maxwell and Williams Contessa range is perfect for this pretty pink look. Plates, platters, and this elegant cup and saucer in rose, R199 each from maxwellandwilliams.co.za These natural woven grass placemats are similar to the ones used on Susan’s table. R219 for a set of two from yuppiechef.com. You’ll find really inexpensive ones at Mr Price Home, and @Home too. And finally ... here’s a statement piece for the centre of your table. Large, chunky, blown art vase in deep shades of purple and pink, just shouting out for a big bunch of fresh blooms.
