It's Tablescape Thursday over at Susan's Between Naps on the Porch.
I haven't participated in quite a while....mainly because I ran out of dishes to share.
They are Pfaltzgraff...I hope I'm spelling it correctly. I love the creamy white, and the design reminds me of Ironstone.
The same friend that had the garage sale sold me these pretty place mats. The napkins are tucked right under the flowers.
I really have no idea how to set a formal table. I'm sure the glasses are all wrong, but having pretty dishes for our meal always brings me joy.
For a centerpiece, I just clipped some gorgeous blue Hydrangea, and plunked it in a water filled carafe.
Thank you Susan for hosting Tablescape Thursday.

Setting a perfect table isn't the answer. It's what is in your heart and that is what shows in your tables. This one is soo pretty. I love those placemats and the new to you white dishes are great. I love the hydrangeas as the centerpiece. Many blessings, marlis

Well, there you have it! I keep telling you--we are so alike. You now own my everyday dishes! lol I have had them since...hmmm...1997! I remember the dates by the houses I lived in...and I still love them. I just realized that I have a couple of chipped ones that I should weed out and replace. I just realized that I don't have the smaller bowls though...and did you get cups with it? I really like the cups!
ReplyDeleteIt is so nice to see you back to blogging a bit more and participating in the things you used to do. Have a wonderful evening my sweet friend..xo Diana
I'm pretty sure my daughter has the same dishes that she uses for special occasions...love them! I'm like you I don't have enought dishes or places to keep them to do the tablescapes:) Maybe one day...your table is beautiful!
