The plate stack is a Mesa International charger topped with Waechtersbach black dinner plate and finally a white unmarked salad plate to which I have topped with a black napkin held with the star of the table...the daffodil rings.
I wanted the flatware to be simple, so I, again, used the International stainless. I don't know the pattern...maybe I should spend a little time researching it...yeah, in my spare time!
The glassware is Luminarc, made in France, Rhine wine stem.
Can you believe I couldn't find any daffodils for the centerpiece! I tried the flower shop in town, the local grocery and WalMart...no one had any and there were none in the yard this year. I settled on white daisies which I put in canning jars after trying them in a tall vase.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by today...please come back the next time.
I will join Foodie Friday and Everything Else/Rattlebridge Farm.

Marigene, I have definite Daffodil envy! Those napkin rings are marvelous! Love the way you used them with black and white. Your table does represent spring in a beautiful way!!

So beautiful that yellow napkin ring on the black tablesetting. Just gorgeous!
Garden rumor has it ... Daffodils and Daisies love to talk it up and mingle. :) I like the mix, and I prefer a short vase to a tall one any day, especially at a table.
Beautifully set.
Much love.
I love the black and white with the little splashes of yellow! And I love the green hutch in the background - it's stunning!
Love the checks of you napkins and they look great with the daffodils. Loving your hutch in the background too!
Your daffodil napkin rings are so cute! They really do pop nicely against the checkered black tablecloth.

Black and white checks are always so striking, love daisies and daffodils! Great table. Marigene.
This is a stunning table - black and white with the strong accent. I have been reading your blog since just before Christmas and you have inspired me to start a new table setting hobby. I even located a Savers about 50 miles from my house. (I really live in the middle of nowhere!) What I like best about your settings/tables is that it looks like you could actually sit down and serve a dinner.
Great find on the napkin rings! I am waiting for my patch of daffs to bloom so I can use them! Lovely table, always a winning color combo!
What pretty napkin rings! I think if you would have had more daffodils on the table it would have detracted from them. Love the black and white background.
Marigene, The yellow of the daffodils against the black napkin is is a beautiful dramatic contrast with the black and white checks of the tablecloth. This is one of my favorite looks. The yellow pops to make this a memorable table setting. I love the addition of the platter behind the tureen on the hutch. I picked my daffodils yesterday to do a tablescape for today but had to finish up the tax returns (all of the paperwork was spread all over the dining room table) and get them posted instead. Maybe I will get inspired tomorrow.
Marigene,
Showstopper daffodil napkin rings, dear friend!!!
Black and white with green is my favorite color palette for tablescapes!!!The PoP of yellow signals the Spring Season beautifully!!!
I adore how the canning jars stretched the length of your table!!!
Fondly,
Pat
Oh the napkin rings are simply delightful - and the perfect ones for the black and white table. The daisies are perfect too - going so well with the black and white - I think I like them better than if you had used daffodils. Put watermelon napkin rings on the napkins and you'd have a quick summer table setting too. Just love this one!!!!!
The daffodil napkin rings look great with the black white! Our daffs are just about to open. Have a good week!!
These are so cute! I love the colors, so perfect for summer. I have a lot of napkin rings, but for whatever reason I seldom use them. Thanks for this post. I will now be encouraged to do so.
Another perfect table, Marigene! I love the black and white checks...your new napkin rings are adorable and set the table off nicely! The daisies are wonderful too! Have a great weekend.
Blessings My Friend,
Pretty table setting. :) Your flowers look nice... and I like the green china cabinet. :)
I love the jar of daisies parading down the center of the table, Marigene. They were a good choice since you couldn't find the daffodils you were hoping for. Those daffodil napkin rings are so stunning and perfect on your black and white table. My, those stemware are the perfect choice!
I love your napkin rings! They really stand out on your table of black and white. Your row of daisies in vases is wonderful! (You know I love that.) Happy weekend! :-)

A beautiful table with a brilliant idea for the napkin rings. A lovely use of the daffodils! Take care xx
Those daffodil rings are so pretty. Pretty color scheme, another combo that I like is black and yellow...Christime
Hi Marigene! OH, what a sweet table and I love those springy little napkin rings! Now I'm crushing on that green hutch in the background! So so cute and I love the color. Thank you so much for popping in to see me.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
LOVE the black and white with the daffodils Marigene, quite dramatic and really makes them the star! I also love your centerpiece row of daisies, just adorable on the black checked cloth!
Jenna
The black certainly does make the daffodil rings stand out. A very strike table.
Your tablescape today is simply elegant! Classic with a touch of whimsy. Love, love the black and white with the yellows of the daffodil. Just perfection....
Beautiful, yet so simple. Love it.
What a lovely combination!
Daffodils and gingham are two of my favorite things! The yellow really pops off of the black.
Have a lovely weekend!
Hi Marigene! I'm still enjoying your pretty napkin rings! Daffodils are beginning to pop up around here and I just love it. Thanks so much for popping in to see me.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
What a stunning table Marigene!
The black and white is the perfect background.
I am back at blogging again.
I feel like I have 5 thumbs!
Enjoyed visiting,

Those daffodils look so jaunty paired with the cheerful gingham. Like the Luminarc glasses too (winks slyly....thanks)!
What a delightful table, oh my heavens, everything is just beautiful! I'm crazy about the black and white checked tablecloth, I've one like it and it goes with everything! Great post~
Have a sweet Sunday~

What fun napkin rings! And I love that you used mason jars to hold the daisies in.
Another pretty table Marigene. love those napkin rings...how unique. I guess daffodils have come and gone.
Darling napkin rings! Love them teamed with the black and white. Really cute tables Ape! We haven't had daffodils for quite some time - seems the came really early this year.
Happy Mother's Day to you!
