It's Thursday, time to join Susan of Between Naps On the Porch for Tablescape Thursday. Please make sure you drop by our gracious host, Susan's, after leaving here, to see what other porch guests have done with their tables.
You may enlarge the pictures by clicking on them.
Tonight's table was inspired by one of my favorite vintage tablecloths. I love the bright blue against the white.
There are only two larger than life birds, on diagonal corners, the rest has a floral border.
Dinner plate border has same type of mythical bluebird as the tablecloth.
