Fourth of July Table for One

You can celebrate the Fourth of July even if you are by yourself - start by setting a bright, cheery table. Pat took an unconventional blue plate and went from there.

The place setting

This nifty charger is from Maryland China Company

Dinner plate is Scarlett Fiesta by Homer Laughlin

This layer is a Periwinkle Blue Fiesta Luncheon plate by Homer Laughlin

Inexpensive blue glassware from the Dollar Store is always versatile

To "blend in" simple satin-finished flatware is used

Not 4th of July tablescaping stuff:
My niece sent me two packages last week, but that's another story..... Anyway, she gave me matching glassware to my Lenox Espresso Brown Goblets. [Needless to say, I have a wonderful niece.] I wanted to use them right away.

Thank you, Jennifer. They are lovely. (She gave me eight of each.......)
