Joe and I are supposed to be in Florida for the month of Feb., enjoying the tropical breezes and weather BUT, as you know we had to cancel due to his surgery. Luckily we didn't lose any money and are booked for next Feb!! SO, I thought a tropical inspired table was just what the Dr. ordered:):) For my centerpiece I gathered some things in my round basket.
I placed my palm tree tablecloth on the table then layered a rattan place mat, and my palm dishes. and flatware.
I have 2 different palm votive holders so used both. It is fine to mix and match, it keeps things interesting!
I tried different S and P shakers. This set is one of them.
Here is the votive holder at Joe's place.
I love this tablecloth. I found it years ago, in Florida at Bealls department store.
These pots are filled with ferns.
I LOVE the texture of these pots and the little handles.
I also added this vase with palm trees on it to the hutch.
The palm platter can hold our dinner.
I love how the bamboo edge matches the bamboo pattern on the tablecloth.
The dishes have 4 different palm designs.
I settled on these S and P as they are a favorite!
Let's light the candles.
Did you notice that the lacy design on the candle and lantern are almost the same!
Thanks so much for visiting. I couldn't get this post written for yesterday as my computer was frozen??? I don't know how that happens!
XO, Pinky

Between Naps on the Porch – Tablescape Thursday
Oh Pinky - I love this, every single detail. I can feel the lovely coastal breeze and the sunshine. You should keep this lovely table until spring truly arrives in your area. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sandra! I just might do that:)
DeleteWhat a perfect table!! I love it, every bit.
ReplyDeleteI love this table & it looks like Florida. I especially like your little pots & the vase on the hutch!
ReplyDeleteDid the salt & pepper shakers belong to Mom & Joe? They look so familiar!
Yup, those were Mom and Joe's. I love them.
DeleteI'm sorry your plans went awry, but I think your table will transport you to Florida until spring. The patterns and textures definitely say 'tropical get-away'! I have four bread plates in the same pattern as your dinner plates, found at a hit-or-miss kind of a vintage shop. Perhaps I'll design a table with them now that I've seen yours.
ReplyDeleteWow I love those dishes and the flatware. I don’t think I’ve ever seen flatware with the palm trees. Too bad you couldn’t go to Florida but there is always next year! I think this was a great way to embrace the feeling of being there!
ReplyDeleteI just love palm trees. I have never seen the palm tree cutlery before. A beautiful table, Pinky.
