What Is Red, White And Black?
Inspiration for this table began in the summer when I found these beautiful linens at Savers. I am smitten with them! The bright red napkin rings were also found at Savers.
I have used, for the stack, a red Waechtersbach dinner plate, white Wedgwood salad plate and a red/black/white tartan dessert plate, all sitting upon a black woven charger.
The flatware is Oneida Louisiana.
The glassware is a black water stem and a Arcoroc black stemmed wine glass.
The centerpiece is a tiny Christmas tree. It never photos well...it must have something to do with the material the orbs are made of. I think some of them may be some type of plastic. The topper and birds are glass.
I will be joining

Thank you for taking the time to visit today...hope you will come back next time.

I love the linens too and I love how they look with the plaid plate. Pretty Tablescape!
What a wonderful find those linens were - I love them as well. Your tablescapes are always such an inspiration to me.
Again, a really pretty black, red and white table.....you do such a great job!
Love you,

I really like how the black makes the other colors pop. Such a pretty tablescape.
It all comes together so nicely - love the fabric and the plaid - oh I just love everything. The little tree is darling.
Oh Marigene, there is so much to love about this table! First of all, I love the little tree centerpiece; anything with birds is right up my alley. :) It's just a lovely little tree.
Your linens are gorgeous; black in a room makes a real statement. And I especially LOVE those red, black and white tartan salad plates. I never tire of tartan plaids.
Thanks for sharing your inspiration with us. Visiting from Seasonal Sundays.
Hugs,

Marigene,
This table looks so festive and elegant. Love it - Sue Z.
Everything about this table is perfect. I love the crispness of the black/white/red color scheme and I like how they play off the browns and the textures. It's always fun to see Christmas done with a twist, and this tablescape certainly does that!
Marigene the linens are gorgeous and I love the plate stack. I am so in love with the plaid plates! We don't think of black as a Christmas color but look how stunning this table is!! hugs, Linda
So excited to get my first tablescape in months. It is spectacular and I want the plaid rimmed plates. Snowing hard here. Hugs, bbb

Wow, Marigene, you really did a beautiful job setting a table with that stunning runner and napkins! I love the close-up photo of the placesetting -- so elegant! And you even have BLACK glassware!
Black, red, and white are perfect for the holidays. I love your tree, and the tartan dessert plates. I always hope to find some like that for a good price. Your black goblets make the table so elegant, and I love the op of color that the napkins provide. Joni
Oooo, those black accents are striking, Marigene! Lovely napkins & I WANT some plaid plates! So many cute ones this year. Nicely done.
If you lived closer, I'd happily give you sewing lessons.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!!!!!!! How do you find all this great stuff at Savers??!??!??!! I can never find ANYTHING when I go in there! You really must know the trick!
I love mixing black in with the traditional Christmas colors. Doing it again this year. I wish I had those beautiful plaid plates!!! They are perfect!!! Very Ralph Lauren!!!
Hi Marigene....Love that you added black to your tablescape...it's not seen much on Christmas tables but it works so well....love the plaid plates too!
I really like the addition of black in this Christmas tablescape, so different, but so effective! Just beautiful!
Merry Christmas!

Marigene, Lovely! Black, white, and red is so classic and combined with the tartan plaid it makes for a very festive holiday tablescape. The new Christmas table linens are really pretty too. I wish we had a Savers near here, I would have bought the beautiful table linens too. Very nice job.
Hi Sweetie,
Your linens are lovely. I love anything with swirls in the design. So pretty. Your flatware is a very nice pattern. I have not seen it before.
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas.

Love it -- so pretty. The black grounds the whole thing and elevates it from expected to elegant!
Beautiful table and I love those gorgeous napkins!! I also am crazy about those tartan plates. Great job of changing up traditional Christmas colors a bit!!
A fun and unexpected table with the black, but I love it! Black and white is fabulous for anything in my book and I love it paired with the holiday bloom! Your centerpiece tree looks great too!

Marigene~ Your table is BEAUTIFUL! I'm mad for plaid and your new poinsettia linens make your settings pop! Beautiful little tree, I have weakness for bird ornaments, especially the clip on ones!
P.S. I found my squirrel ornament at Hobby Lobby :)
Goodness, I do love those plaid plates. What a festive table, Marigene. The black accents really make your table special. Happy holidays.
Exquisite! I love the linens!!! Did you paint your chargers? It all looks SO pretty, I always love tartan. Just beautiful!
This is a striking combo! I love all the colors and patterns mixed. Very pretty! Merry Christmas!
