Fun With Zebra Tablescape

While Pat's off at a conference in Salt Lake City, I am going to post another table that her daughter designed when she was visiting last month. This time it is a whimsical zebra patterned table using American Atelier's a "Serengeti Zebra" accent plate as the starting point.

You can never overdo "zebra".....the charger, the accent plate and the flatware are all coordinated

Flatware is by Cambridge - I found it years ago at Ross

This is a Black "Fiesta(ware)" Luncheon plate by Homer Laughlin

The dinner plate is White "Fiesta(ware)" 

The only reason I bought eight of these chargers was that they were on sale (90% off) at Michael's several years ago - I figured we would use them someday.....

Glassware is "Midnight Black" by Artland Glass

Where it came from:
Charger - from Michael's six years ago
Dinner, Luncheon and Bread and Butter Plates - "Fiesta(ware)" by Homer Laughlin from Macy's
Accent Plate - "Serengeti" Zebra Stripes by American Atelier from eBay
Flatware - by Cambridge from Ross several years ago
Glassware - "Midnight Black" by Artland Glass from Target years ago
Candlesticks and Salt and Pepper Shakers - from our Depression Glass collection

Spode Reynolds Table

Another one of our favorite Spode patterns is "Reynolds" - it was produced from 1954 through 1988. The center is a mix of fruit and flowers. Pat picked up on the mixture of fruit and set this week's table using a basket of grapes as the centerpiece.

With the various colors on the plate, Pat had a hard time deciding what color charger to use - she settled on "Colonial Blue" Color Spectrum by Mikasa

Flatware is "Musee" by Reed & Barton

Glassware is "Angela" by Bohemia Glass Company

Where it came from:
Charger - Colonial Blue "Color Spectrum" by Mikasa from Replacements.com
Dinnerware - "Reynolds" by Spode from eBay and Replacements.com
Flatware - "Musee" by Reed & Barton from Horchow three years ago
Glassware - "Angela" by Bohemia Glass from Pat's collection
Hemstitch Napkin - from Pier 1 two or three years ago
Wooden Candle Holders - from Tailwaggers (a local thrift store that supports animal rescue)
Burgundy Candles - from the Ferndale Emporium (a local kitchen and gift boutique)
