Fun Fiestaware Table

In between "Public Safety Power Outage" [our utility company's term for shutting off power to millions of people to prevent more forest fires] madness this week, Pat's daughter was here visiting. Of course, she helped set this week's tables for our blogs. Taking a napkin as an inspiration, she came up this this sweet table using vintage "Evergreen" Fiesta(ware).


Flatware is matte finish "Vault" by Gourmet Settings



"Evergreen" Fiesta(ware) was only produced from 2007 through 2009

A "White" Fiesta(ware) Chop plate was used as a charger


The fun glassware is from Pier 1

Johnson Brothers Friendly Village Luncheon Table

It seemed only natural to set the table this week using Johnson Brother's "Friendly Village" since we set our other tablescaping blog with their "Olde English Countryside" dinnerware. Our Mother originally collected "Friendly Village" many years ago and we were fortunate enough to inherit it.


Pat mixed in vintage silverplate flatware with the place setting to add a slightly formal look


Love the signature square salad plate


For a charger, Pat used a "Periwinkle" Fiesta(ware) chop plate

We found a set of eight vintage placemats and matching napkins at a local antique store years ago







Where it came from:
Place Mat and Matching Napkin - from Art & Old Things (a local antique store) several years ago
Charger - "Periwinkle" Fiesta(ware) Chop Plate by Homer Laughlin from Replacements.com
Dinnerware - "Friendly Village" by Johnson Brothers from our Mother
Flatware - "Reverie" Silverplate by Oneida from eBay
Foliage and Greenery - from Michael's
