A Spotted Table for One

Pat wanted to do a whimsical table this week and decided to use a dish pattern that I love - it's called "Kate" from Pier 1. I haven't seen it used on any blogs to set tables (except one of our Santa/Christmas tables last December), but it's a unique pattern and easily mixes with other colors to make interesting and fun tablescapes.

Over view of the table

The place setting

Flatware is "Pure" by Gourmet Settings

Glassware is "Sphere" from Pier 1 - it has a fun base that goes well with the spotted dinner plate

The red footed bowl is "Fun Factory" by Waechtersbach

Not one of Pat's favorites (she actually dislikes the pattern) but I love it....it is called "Kate" from Pier 1

Bell Heather Table for One

Pat "scored" when she found "Bell Heather" dinnerware by Royal Doulton on eBay several years ago. A bit pricey, but well worth it, she quickly bought the set. And now, she uses it often and mixes it with other dishes to create different table designs. In addition to the Bell Heather, today's table uses another favorite - Amethyst "Newport" Depressionware by Hazel Atlas.

The table

Flatware is "King James" Silverplate by Oneida

For the first layer of the place setting, Pat used a cream soup bowl and liner in the "Bell Heather" pattern

I love the textured rim of the "Newport" Salad plate

And the rim of the "Bell Heather" dinner plate is also gorgeous

The purple glass charger is slightly textured

Remember these glasses? I think everyone attended a Princess House party at one time or another 

The creamer and sugar bowl

This is a "Newport" sherbet and liner

The small luncheon napkin (part of a set of 12) was a gift from our cousin years ago

We found these frosted amethyst candle holders on eBay a few months ago
