Good morning! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. On Sat. night, Joe and I hosted our dinner group, so I set a pretty table. I like my guests to feel like I set a special table just for them, cause I do! I cut some hydrangeas from the yard for my centerpiece and the rest grew from there. I had gotten this crock, that is actually for utensils at Joann Fabrics back in the Spring. The colors were perfect to use as a vase for my flowers. I actually placed a glass vase inside the crock so it wouldn't leak on the table.
I have had these flowered placemats and napkins for years and love to use them in the Spring and Summer.
I kept it pretty simple. Onto the placemat I used a blue dinner plate, light turquoise salad plate and turquoise shell shaped dessert plate. I used my nice, bamboo design flatware.

I used my nice, bamboo design flatware.
These blooms are so pretty. I do miss my blue hydrangeas so am going to amend the soil next year to make one of the bushes produce blue flowers.
2 turquoise and silver candlesticks hold turquoise LED candles! All came from Home Goods.
I am sorry I didn't get any pictures of the food! We served Filets with madeira or peppercorn sauce, mashed potato casserole, and I sautéed some onions, mushrooms, zucchini, and asparagus. Everyone said it was all delicious.
Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate every one of you.
XO, Pinky

ReplyDeleteBeautiful table, Pinky! I know your guests felt special. Your menu sounds fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI adore your flower arrangement. I'm a nut about hydrangeas and they quickly arrange themselves with little trouble.

Your linens are very pretty and I love the hydrangeas. I have a lot of pink hydrangeas this year.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty table for your guests! Love the pretty hydrangeas and the crock you used. The dinner menus sounded delicious! I keep trying to get my hydrangeas to turn blue but all I get is a light purple and the pinks! I've fertilized with the recommended stuff but I haven't had much luck changing their color.
ReplyDeleteWe have a very alkaline soil so I guess I'm working against a bigger force!
