Italian Countryside Table

It's not surprising that country style tablescapes are popular. You can pull together everyday dinnerware coupled with things around the house to make a great looking table. That's what Pat did with this week's table.

Pat started with rust colored leather-like place mats that she found at Pier 1 two or three years ago. (Naturally, they were on super sale - regular price was $9.95 reduced to $1.48 and then 20% off that.....) She loves a bargain.

Dinnerware is Italian ironstone from Tuesday Morning. Pat bought three place settings each of the four different patterns

The centerpiece consists of three different wine jugs filled with grapes and greenery

Flatware is "Treble Clef" by Gourmet Settings

Since the place setting required large glassware, Pat used the largest she could find -  inexpensive Dollar Store water and wine glasses

Who doesn't recognize the iconic Fiesta water pitcher? And the unique shape fits a country style table.
