Orange is the New Black


For Passover this year I went with an orange-yellow theme
to complement the beautiful spring we are having
I naturally began with a trip to my local nursery
I planted Tagettes in paper cups in painted them with watercolors
and made mini-doillies for the candles
(the rest of the table - tablecloth, napkins, etc. - was white)
I made a couple of gift bags from an old movie poster
and cut pineapples for desert
and my niece Dana made an orange drawing and dressed to match!
