Black, White and a Touch of Green at the Table

Good morning. We are having house guests so I haven't had time to do a new post so am reposting this from ast year. I amy actuallly do a very similiar table soon, maybe. Hope if you missed this you can enjoy it now!  I started with a black and white checked runner. I wanted to make it light and airy.  I used a black and striped placemat and a sea grass round mat along with my white chargers and black and white flowered dinner plate and black and white salad plate. I topped all that with a green apple surrounded by a green, leafy ring.

 To compliment the runner I mixed it up a bit by gathering 2 napkins together in a simple, white ceramic napkin ring.

 My limelight hydrangeas are perfect for a simple but beautiful centerpiece.

 They are all different colors right now. Some are still  green and some...

 are white and some

 are beginning to show some of that beautiful pinkish color.

 I added 2 green candles surrounded by a green leafy ring for added texture.

 My clear bubble goblets will hold our beverage.

 The hydrangeas are in one of my white pitchers that is acting as a vase.

 To add some more texture I filled my white gravy boat with some seed balls and other pods.

 A single apple sits in a green leafy ring on top of the dish stack.

And mixing my flatware makes the table fun.

 This is the salad plate

 and this the dinner plate. They can be mixed together many different ways.

 Yes, there is also a small antler in this mix:)

 I really like the edge of the gravy boat and the leafy vine on the side.

 The rattan S and P tie in with the sea grass placemats.

Thanks for your visit! Are you dreaming and planning for Fall yet? I am just beginning to THINK about it. We have had some cooler temps this week that I have been loving. I hope you are surviving this awful heat if it is HOT where you are!!!.

 XO, Pinky

A Hauntingly Witchy Table!!

It is Halloween Eve and time for a new table. I had alot of fun putting this one together. The cauldron is brewing up a delicious potion so let's have a seat!! Ms. Witch seems to have lost her shoes! And they are such pretty shoes too! I started with a black and white checked tablecloth, a white charger, then a stack of black, orange and white dishes.

 2 napkins are gathered together in this fun napkin ring.

 A lacy pumpkin matches the skirt on Ms. witch.

 Black goblets hold your poison:)

 Let's light the candles! Ms. Witch deserves a feather boa, don't you think? It is wound around the table

 A lacy witch"s shoe holds the flatware

 and a bottle brush tree adds some fun to the table.

 Candles stand on a dessert bowl, turned upside down with a black striped pumpkin under it.

 S and P are gathered in a mini wagon.

 The plates here are part of a set with each one picturing something different.

 Mini corn kernals fill the bottom of the hurricane candle holder.

 And Ms. witch presides over all.

 With her bag of goodies!

 This little one is witch in training:)

 

 

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all have a HAUNTINGLY good Halloween and enjoy some goodies too!!!!

~~~BEE Happy, Sunny Yellow Table!!!~~~

 

Hello! Does a sunny yellow table just make you smile? It does me. Of course, adding a touch of black and white just makes me swoon!!!! I found the gingham checked tablecloth at CTS and knew what I wanted to do. Set a pretty table just for YOU! So, please, come and sit with me and we'll look around.

 For this table I had to use my Napolean BEE flatware:) It is a staple in the summer here. The placemat is reversible to a black and white stripe as you can see on the edges. These white lanterns came from CTS several years ago. I placed a faux bee on each of them too.

 I love these honeycomb jars with the bee on top! They were another CTS find.

 The edge of the placemat has this pretty flowered embroidery.

 Another bee has landed on the top of the bee skep!

 And the bee juice glasses will be filled with OJ.

 I also found the sunflower S and P at CTS. I just realized this could be an ad for them!!!!:)

 I placed the bee skep under a cloche that has a nest on one side and some butterflies on the other.  The cloche rests on a sunflower plate which rests on a glass cake pedestal.

I found mangos on sale and I LOOOOVE mango.

 We are all set, please pull up a chair.

I placed a tiny bud vase of yellow daisies at each setting too.

I got these at the place where I used to work. I love the shape.

 You can see the butterflies on the cloche in this shot.

Thanks so much for your visit. We have finally broken our heat wave, it is 77 GLORIOUS degrees right now!!!!!!! If it doesn't rain I will be running over to the pool later for water aerobics! XO, Pinky
