HI everyone! This past weekend we had a long weekend at my girlfriends house at the beach, Fenwick Island, De. to be exact! We arrived on Fri. for a delicious lunch and on Sunday night she cooked us a delicious dinner. She asked if I wanted to do her table so, of course, I DID!!!! She has these gorgeous dishes to work with! I never did ask her where she got them though, sorry!!!!
She and I have VERY similiar taste, so I love her home. I will show you more of it in the next couple of days.We used her beautiful placemats that are edged in black. She has alot of black accents around her home. The chop sticks are on ceramic rests.
We used a soup bowl,
small under plate,
and the beautiful, square dinner plate.
The little rattan boat shaped pieces are for warm towels!!!!! Black napkins are caught up in bamboo rings.
A rattan tray holds a candle surrounded by greens and some shells.
We enjoyed a delicious dinner!!!!!!
I will join Susan for Tablescape Thursday at http://www.betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/ I will also join Kim at Savvy Southern Style for Wow us wed. at http://www.savvysouthernstyle.blogspot.com/ Thanks so much for stopping by! XO, Pinky

Hi Pinky! The table looks great, it has such a modern feel to it that's perfect for the beach. Hope you enjoy your time together!! Thanks for sharing your beautiful table!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I love the beach! The oriental touch is awesome here! Great friendship..thanks for sharing:)
ReplyDeleteHope to see you on my blog:)
The colour scheme is unexpected for a beach-themed 'scape and therefore, all the more interesting! I really like those square plates and the centerpiece is simple but perfect! A dinner where you have "warm towels" sounds intriguing!

As always..... you made so much beauty! I bet it was fun decorating and setting up your friends table.

Pinky, so pretty. I love anything with a beach or water theme. Elegant!!
ReplyDeleteI notice that you have a Byers Choice caroler in your header. I collect them. I have dozens and dozens of the Christmas ones....some Thanksgiving and one Halloween one. I just adore them.

It's so nice to spend time with friends especially at the beach. Glad you had fun.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it wonderful when your friends know you well enough and admire your talent enough to ask you to prepare the table? :-) That is always is such an honor. Your friend does have beautiful things, and you showcased them well! I really like the bamboo thingy for the warm towel!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to be with friends and play with dishes! I'd love to do that sometime. Very elegant setting, with an exotic feel to it. I've never been to the beaches in Delaware but hear they are beautiful. Visiting from BNOTP. xo,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely Asian-inspired theme on your table. Well done.
ReplyDeleteOh, Pinky, you did a good job with the beautiful tablescape and square dishes...I'm so parcial to Oriental elements, so I'm loving this dear Pinky. Thank you for sharing, I'm also at TT at, BNOTP.
