Garden Aplenty Table for One

I've been doggy sitting for my cousin for a few days while he went to visit family in the Napa Valley area (yes, famous for wine grapes but a whole lot more.) When he arrived to pick up his "treasures," he left me a huge bag of fresh vegetables from his stepson's organic commercial garden. What a treat! So Pat set about to create a table featuring the vegetables (that she usually grows herself but can't this year because of water rationing in her town.) Sorry, Pat.....

Over view of the table

The place setting - dishware is "Naturewood" by Pfaltzgraf

Flatware is ceramic handled "Iron Brown" by Noritake

Pat used inexpensive Dollar Store glassware because it is simple and sleek

This makes a Vegetarian's mouth drool.....

The odd color of this charger is "Nutmeg" - Pat's husband spray painted an inexpensive lacquer charger bought on sale at Michael's with Krylon for Plastic Spray Paint.

Pat used a ceramic carrot from Easter and attached it to a clear acrylic napkin ring to carry out the garden theme

One last look

Where it came from:
Charger - Inexpensive lacquer charger from Michael's spray painted with "Nutmeg" Krylon for Plastic Spray Paint
Dishware - one of my old everyday sets of "Naturewood" by Pfaltzgraff widely available
Flatware - "Iron Brown" by Noritake (they have ceramic handles that break easily but I love them. I have had this pattern for almost 40 years - with thanks to Replacements.com and eBay for additional pieces.)
Napkin - Handmade by Pat
Napkin Ring - Ceramic Carrot from Tuesday Morning attached to a clear acrylic napkin ring from Bed, Bath, and Beyond
Glassware - inexpensive Dollar Store brand
Sand Colored Candles - from Tuesday Morning
Candle Holders - from Pat's collection
