A Late Summer Table

This may be the last summer table I set as I am ready to start my Fall decorating. Since the house has an open floor plan I really have to do it all, as one area is seen from another. I found this pretty runner on clearance so grabbed it as I knew I had dishes that would make a pretty table! The runner has shades of blue and turquoise on a creamy background. The plates are on a solid turquoise placemat and are a creamy charger, a blue dinner plate, a turquoise salad plate and a blue bowl that is patterned inside.

The goblet is a turquoise with bubbles.

Creamy handles flatware is simple and pretty.

I gathered a plain blue napkin with a flowered blue napkin in a queen annes lace flowered napkin ring.

Turquoise candle sticks hold turquoise LED candles surrounded by blue rings.

I made a simple arrangement in my cut glass vase of blue and white hydrangeas with creamy filler.

Blue votives in blue holders sit at each place.

As the sun sets it's time to light the candles. The days are getting shorter and that makes me sad. I love daylight savings time.

Thanks for stopping by. It is so hard to believe that Labor day comes this weekend! Summer has flown by way too fast. I continue to pray for all the people in Texas who have lost so much. Times like this make us realize we have NOTHING to complain about.
