Wheat Sheaves Against The Azure Sky

This table topper caught my eye several months ago...reminded me of the wheat fields just before they are cut. The gold against the bright azure sky.

Tiny polka dotted napkins are held with blue/white ceramic rings.

The plate stack begins with an octagonal charger, then a Vera Bradley dinner plate (yes, I did use the VB chargers last week!), a Fred Meakin salad plate and finally a Bordallo Pinheiro dessert plate.

My favorite flatware by Oxford Hall Wear Ever in blue, which is a recent eBay purchase.

The glassware is a gorgeous shade of blue wine stem from the Dollar Store. I love the shape of them, as well as the color.

The centerpiece is a bowl of fresh vegetables and pitchers of basil.

Thanks for visiting today...hope you will come back next time. Have a wonderful weekend!

I will join Table It/Rustic & Refined.

Vera Meets April!

The inspiration for this table was the April Cornell tablecloth I found at HomeGoods a couple months ago. It is blue, green and cream.

The solid periwinkle napkins are held with a dragonfly napkin ring.

I have used a blue Vera Bradley charger, green BP cabbage leaf dinner plate, blue salad plate from Target and a green BP cabbage leaf soup bowl.

The flatware is Oxford Hall Fashion Wear...they call it lime...I have to disagree with them, it isn't lime by any means...more like a grass or leaf green.

The glassware is Artland Iris in light green.

The centerpiece is a cake pedestal filled with candles...how much simpler can it get.

The rim shot.

Thanks for taking the time to visit today...hope you will return the next time.

Simple, Simple, Simple

It is so cold right now...Mother Nature seems to be bi-polar this year, extremely cold and then unseasonably warm for winter. She can't seem to make up her mind!

Something bright and warm looking seemed to fit the bill for my table this week. I started with bright yellows, pinks and raspberry reds.

To that I added a pinkish napkin held with a raspberry napkin ring. Keeping with the color theme I used the same yellow handled flatware as I did last week. It makes me smile!

The dishes started with a raspberry charger, topped with white plates ended with a cream soup bowl.

The glassware is clear.

The simple hurricane candle served as the centerpiece.

Today I am hosting a luncheon of soups, corn muffins, and assorted crackers for 11 guests. Dessert will be a fruit pizza or brownies with maraschino cherries and nuts. I will be using the dishes in my header...will take some photos, if I have time.

Thanks for taking the time to visit today, do come back the next time.
