Run For the Roses

It is almost time for all the red, pink and whites to come out of the dish cupboard...trial run with red and white this week.

The cream lace tablecloth is old, not antique old, just old (like me). I chose red and cream toile napkins as they match the dinner plate in color perfectly.

The flatware is Oneida Louisiana stainless found at Savers last year for almost nothing. I bought service for 8 at less than $20.

The stemware is Cristal D'arques Antique in ruby. When held up to the window, they are a true red. I have seen these in other colors and would love to find some in other colors.

The dinner plate is J & G Meakin Tudor Roses, the salad plate is unmarked and the soup bowl is Johnson Brothers Snowhite Regency.

I have used my Red Cliff tureen and the red mercury glass candle holders as the centerpiece. I recently found the underplate to the tureen.

Thanks for stopping by today, hope you will return next time.
