Simple Garden Table

Pat decided to set the Table for One using the same pattern that she used for our other blog since it is one of her favorites. She mixed it with Fiesta(ware), again, but chose a different color to show how versatile the "Botanical Garden" pattern really is.

Pat used a "Paprika" Fiesta(ware) Luncheon plate since it matched perfectly with some of the flowers 

The charger is definitely not one of Pat's favorites.....but it really goes well with the dish pattern.

How can you go wrong with the very well known and often used Dollar Store "green" glassware?

Pat often uses these tiny terra cotta flower pots to hold salt and pepper.

Where it came from:

Gold and Black Table

Pat set the Table for One this week using a place setting from our "Singles" collection. It's called "Madeleine" by Hutschenreuther.

The setting - Pat placed a flat napkin in front under the placemat so it would not draw attention from the gorgeous dinnerware

Flatware is "Byzantine" by Yamazaki

Way out of Pat's "comfort zone," I fell in love with the glitzy placemat when I saw them at TJMaxx last year

Where it came from:

Placemat - by Chilewich from TJMaxx last year

Black Charger - "Color Spectrum" by Mikasa from Replacements

Dinnerware - "Madeleine" by Hutschenreuther from eBay

Flatware - "Byzantine" by Yamazaki from Horchow's

Glassware - "Jet Black" by Artland Glass from Target mail order and Replacements

Candle Holders and Candles - from Pier 1 two years ago
