Jennifer's Birthday Table

Today is my niece's birthday - Pat and I decided to set the table with dishes that Jennifer really likes using a place setting that she came up with on one of her visits to "play with dishes." 

The table

Simple - yet elegant - the "Wild Violet" pattern by Aynsley is gorgeous

Flatware is "April" by Wm Rogers & Son

Jennifer used this pebbled looking charger for more texture (and the color was perfect)

Remember this pattern??? A blast from the past - Princess House.

Pat used small purple sherbets for vases

Poor Jennifer - she even baked the cupcake for her own birthday table setting.......

Remembering Valentine's Day

Pat set a sweet table to celebrate Valentine's Day - full of hearts, flowers, and memories......

Over view of the table

The place setting

Pat made the arrangement using chocolate candy lips

These matching coasters under the red votive holders go well with the charger

I love this figurine. It has so many memories....
