The inspiration for my table this week came by way of a gift from my sister, Judy. She has been waiting for me to do a black, white and pink table...unfortunately, I don't have much in the line of pink, other than linens and stemware. Judy bought me pink, white and black soup bowls. Both of my sisters seem to enjoy supporting my dish addiction by adding to my growing collection.

How my mother would love this with all the pink. She tells us all over and over how pink is her favorite color. But no-one can do such a fantastic job with pink as you do! bbb
Beautiful table, Marigene! You have such nice generous sisters :) I really like the pinks, very pretty!
Marigene - I LOVE this color combination - so very feminine looking as well as elegant & romantic! The bowls are beautiful - you have wonderful sisters.
I never knew I liked the black/white and another color combos until I started following your blog! I have purchased the black & whites and experimented with B/W/Red but Pink definitely going to be tried soon.
Oh, I love the etched design on the pink stemware! SO pretty when enlarged!
Since I love pink this is a winner for me. Those bowls are sooooo pretty. How nice of your sister to help feed your addiction! The table is wonderful. hugs, Linda
Love the pink!

Call 911, she is doing pink! I am the mindless prattler to whom you refer? :)
That is so nice of your sisters to support your habit. Mine don't even read my blog!
The bowls are beautiful! The table looks very elegant!
Great sisters!!! Very pretty table..bet you will be looking for more pink.

Pink? I had to check again to make sure I was at the right blog! LOL What a sweet sister! Those dishes are beautiful. The table looks so elegant!
I normally don't like pink but the way you put it together is beautiful!
This is flat out gorgeous! I LOVE that china. And you certainly set a lovely table with this wonderful gift. This is so elegant! Love that pretty stemware too. Have a great week!
I love the black and pink combination a lot. It looks so rich to me. I look forward to your post each week to see what new creation you have come up with next. Gotta love sisters, too. Have a great rest of the week. Job well done!!
Pretty table, loved the Wedgewood china!!!

Love your pink stemware and the pink-trimmed soup bowls. The combination of black and pink is always striking (per BNOTP Button for example). Lovely tablescape!
I like pink about as much as you do...that being said, it's a pretty table!!
Your pink & black table is so elegant! How fun for you that your sisters support your dish habit!
Love your pink and that tablescape is gorgeous Marigene...saw you are a Scorpio, no wonder I like you so much(well, that and your personality!!) :)
I love the pink and black. Beautiful table!
Very pretty! I love the pink and black, it's very striking-enjoy:@)
I love pink and black together and have never seen it on a plate like that. How pretty is that? Your glassware is perfect with it, delicate and lovely. Perfect in pink!
I love pink and black and white.. The black trim on the dishes is perfect. Love your table.
Hi Marigene! This scape is gorgeous! I love white, pink and black together. I, like you, don't have hardly anything pink, but have been wanting to build on that. These plates are perfect!
PS, ramble on, please....:)

Pink, black and white what esle can I say, perfect table perfect match, loved everything.
Thank you for sharing
As you know I'm a pink gal, so is my mom and so is my duagther Talya.
Lots of Love,
Karin
Pink & Black...so classic together! I'm loving your water stems...would love to find something similar, as I don't have ANY stemware to go with my pink depression plates. I have cups to match the pink & actually found 2 recently at GW for $1 each!!!!! Crazy folks didn't know what they had & just gave them away.
Thank you for your sweet comments on the Talavera but I must explain that I don't own it. It belongs to my deceased friend whose beautiful home we get to stay in during the winter. She LOVED bright colors!
So pretty! How nice of your family to help support your hobby!
xo, Andrea
Pink and black are so stunning together. Your table is beautiful! I just found some silver chargers at a thrift store, and I am about to change them to black ones with a trust can of spray paint!! ;0)
One of my most favorite designers, Carlton Varney, always recommends a touch of black in every room to help anchor the room, or in this case, the table. The black napkins are stunning with your pastel setting!
Love the pink and black and white. so elegant. Must try it some time.Very pretty.
What a beautiful color combination. I really like the pink glassware too.
Aren't you lucky to have sisters who add to your growing collection of tableware? I like the way you met their challenge. By the way, I thought of you on my recent Tuscany adventure and mentioned that in my post.
How beautiful this is together! I LOVE the pink glass!
Hi Marigene,
This table is gorgeous! I really love the soup bowls -- they are so elegant. I forget how pretty pink, black and white are together. I also love your etched pink stemware and your pretty flatware. Nice pictures of the blue hour. Thanks for visiting my blog and for your kind comments. Have a great weekend.
