Pretty in Pink Depression Glass Table

For this week's table, Pat decided to use a place setting that we have not used before. She chose Royal Albert's "Blossom Time" since the cherry trees are beginning to bloom. Not a favorite of pink, the table was a bit of a challenge for Pat. She went through the Depression glass that I own and came up with a really unique table.
Pat started with a bright rose pink piece of tulle and covered the plain white tablecloth to make it a soft pink.

The place setting

Flatware is silverplate "Plantation" by Oneida





The charger is pink "American Sweetheart" Depressionware by McBeth-Evans




Glassware is "Rosaline" by J.G. Durand



Instead of a flower arrangement, Pat added a small bundle of roses held together by a pink ribbon



Where it came from:
Dinnerware - "Blossom Time" by Royal Albert from our collection
Pink Glass Charger - "American Sweetheart" by McBeth-Evans from Replacements
Flatware - "Plantation" by Oneida from our Mother
Glassware - "Rosaline" by J.G. Durand
All other pink glassware - Depression Glass from my collection
Salt/Pepper Cellars and spoons - Maryland China Company
Napkin Ring - from a local thrift store
Napkin - Handmade by Pat
Candles, Roses, and Ribbon - Michael's

  6. Lovely. The pink depression glass is so stunning. I wish I could have started a collection of it myself. I always wanted it to match with my china. Your Blossom Time china is the perfect match with your depression glass. Great match.....very charming.

  7. I never use this word but I am swooning over those Royal albert dishes! The depression glass and stemware couldn't be more perfect with these dishes. That charger is sooo pretty- almost a shame to hide it under the dishes! Love the Oneida silverware- it has an understated elegance about it. Beautiful job!

  9. Hi Pat & Katie, I just saw your feature on Christine's blog and HAD to stop by to a) meet you and b) tell you how absolutely gorgeous this tablescape is! I also collect dishes, and antique with 2 of my 6 sisters, but I end up taking all the pictures AND writing the blog, lol. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, and I look forward to following your posts and looking at more of your tablescaping.
