Blue and White Table For One

Blue has always been Pat's favorite color. And when she found a beautiful set of "Blue and White" Bombay dinnerware at Tuesday Morning last year at a great price, she bought it without a second thought.

Lenox Spring Vista

This week's table uses one of my very favorite chargers - Sage "Color Spectrum" by Mikasa. When we first bought the chargers, I wasn't exactly "enthusiastic" with the pale, slightly washout color, but, as usual, Pat saw the potential. It has become another "work horse" in our tablescaping arsenal since it blends so well with many of the dish patterns that we own.

Dinnerware is "Spring Vista" by Lenox - the Mikasa charger matches perfectly.

Pat always refers to this pattern as "Ruffles have ridges"
