A "Wild" Dinner Party!

We hosted our dinner group on Sat. night. It is always a fun night. There are 4 couples and we take turns at each others homes once a month.  We did apple, cranberry pork loins in the crockpot, sweet potato casserole and fresh green beans. It all turned out delicious! I have had these dishes for years but don't think I have ever shared them with you. I just LOVE them. They are made in Italy and so beautiful. I don't have a lot of pictures. I snapped a few right before we sat down to eat. The dinner plates are the same and then the salad/dessert plates have 2 different patterns
 The one above has the zebra design and the one below the leopard. The dinner plates are all rimmed with the leopard print.
 I have 4 animal print wine glasses so used 4 of them and 4 clear wines. And clear water goblets.
 I love these candle holders with the leopard print bottoms.
 I used paper napkins cause I only have 4 of the linen ones:(
 My black flatware and a rattan placemat complete the setting.

 We had such a nice evening. I made one snack and 2 of the girls brought snacks too and the other brought dessert. Then we all went downstairs to the bar to continue the evening.
Thanks so much for your visit. I will be sharing here

  3. Pinky,
    Awesome on the Wild Side Tablescape, dear friend!
    I am quite smitten with your candlesticks!
    I would not have know those napkins were paper!
    From the photograph the napkins appear to be an amazing cotton print!
    Fondly,
