Pat used a serving plate as the charger

Dishware, Flatware, and Glassware - all are in the Warren Kimble pattern "Colonial" by Sakura from our Mother's collection (which she purchased years ago at Gottschalk's - a local Department store out of business now. I've said it before - we come by our mega dish addiction naturally - our Mother had the "problem" first.)

Love the Red, White & Blue of this table. I've seen these dishes other places, but love how you combined them and made them sing the Star Spangled Banner! Happy 4th of July to you!
ReplyDeleteGreat table!
ReplyDeleteNow that a table! and I love the dishes....they made them to look aged like a well loved flag with history and thats been flying for years.
ReplyDeleteLove that!
Hooray for your Mother's "problem" with dishes!!! That means you and Pat have the luxury of creating beautiful tablescapes on a whim!
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the prettiest patriotic set-ups I've ever seen. I absolutely LOVE the dishes and the "odd man out" as you call it. Using that plate really calls attention to the setting and makes the under dishes stand out more. The flatware is SO COOL!!!! I love it! I have tried to find something similar around these parts, but to no avail.
Very, very nice! I hope you and Pat both enjoy a wonderful and safe holiday weekend. (Visiting via Christine's "Table It!" blog party)
The tables for one created by you and your sister are always wonderful. I adore the flatware and am going to check the web to see if I can find some.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of a table for one! I thought I was crazy enough to just set a table for two, as I usually do full settings... lol. I really like the mix of patterns - nicely coordinated and adds a layer of interest. Love the distressed plates! Enjoy the Fourth!!

Love, love, love! Over the top without being tacky. So coveting those dishes and flatware...
ReplyDeleteI love that the flatware matches the dish set! Hope you both have a happy fourth of July-Jennifer
ReplyDeleteI love this table especially the napkins and napkin rings the are the bomb that makes this table
