Wedgwood Edme Garden Club Breakfast with Tea

One of our favorite dishware patterns is "Edme" by Wedgwood. It's extremely versatile and can be used in both casual and in formal settings. Pat set this week's Breakfast table using a "Foxglove" Garden Club luncheon plate with traditional "Edme" after spying foxgloves growing in my yard.
The accent plate has a thin green line around the center - to bring this out better, Pat used a bright green charger (her sweet husband spray painted an inexpensive plastic lacquer charger with plastic adhesive "Fusion" spray paint in a matching color)


Flatware is "Butterflies" by Godinger






I love to show the shape of cup

Since the glassware does not have a pattern name, Pat identifies it as "Ruffles have ridges" because of the rim

A 15" sandwich tray was used to hold the teapot and creamer and sugar bowl

Another fun piece - this time a sherbet was used to hold the flower arrangement

Where it came from:
Green Charger - Inexpensive plastic lacquer charger spray painted with plastic adhesive spray paint
Dinnerware - "Edme" by Wedgwood from eBay and Replacements.com
Glassware - from Pier 1 several years ago
Flatware - "Butterflies" by Godinger from Horchow this year
Apricot Napkin - from Linentablecloth.com (an internet site for inexpensive table linen needs)
