Oh, how I love this! Blue and white is one of my favorite combinations, and the close-up pictures of the border of these plates is just gorgeous. I love everything about this table, except that it is on the other side of the country from me. :-) Happy New Year, Pat and Katie!
ReplyDeleteNice photos. Dining for one on china like that makes the food taste better.
ReplyDeleteBlue and white is such a classic combination, and for good reason - it's crisp and beautiful! Your Spode pieces are lovely. I too use quite a bit of Dollar Tree glassware - I have the wide stemware in a few different colors and love it! - Janet (vfcstyle.com)
ReplyDeleteSo very, very pretty ladies! Spode is such an elegant pattern. It always looks good. Thanks for the great tip on the glasses. The blue stemware adds so much to your tablescape. I recently bought a boxed set of Spode mugs/large cups at a yard sale and they each feature a different scene. That was a great find.

My Mother always wanted Blue Willow china but never got around to buying any. I like Blue Italian much better. I always enjoy seeing Spode. Their colors are unique. If I had it all to do over, I would have purchased some Blue Italian for her! Alas, she has been gone for several years now and I am fortunate to have many of her things. My sister has Mother's china which is a wheat pattern (so popular at one time) and she did set a lovely and imaginative table with that china for Thanksgiving. It gave me such a great feeling to see it again.
ReplyDeleteMy sister and I are planning a day when we "sweep" the town---visiting Dollar Tree, Dollar General and several thrift shops! We are on the hunt!
