Anyway, it is cold and dismal, so this week's table reminded Pat of warmer days and nights. Taking the place mats as the inspiration, she started with black and white plaid accent plates from Pier 1 this year and added "ginger" color dinner plates that we purchased four or five years ago. It made a really unique combination.

My contribution to the tablescape? The bee napkin rings - yes, I know they don't go with the theme, but Pat let me "help"...

I could not get a good picture of the Mikasa "Color Spectrum" charger no matter what I did. Sorry it looks so bad.

These place mats from Pier 1 are becoming one of my favorites - they are really versatile and fun. Pat used one of them on our other blog this week, too.

ReplyDeleteLove, love the plaid accent plates, not too sure about the napkin rings.
ReplyDeleteBlack and gold are favored colors in my household, as we are big Georgia Tech fans, so this table looks perfect to me. And I LOVE the napkin rings. They give a touch of whimsey to the place settings.
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful tablescape, I love the black and gold combo! I am visiting from BNOTP Tablescape Thursday!
ReplyDeleteGreat color combo and I like the placemats. I can see that they will be very versatile for using. I bought a new set of black and white plaid from Pier 1 this year too but it’s a different pattern. It’s a great backdrop for many other colors. I hope the skies clear soon and the weather warms up for you. I know someone who visited the Grand Canyon recently and even there they were affected by the smoke and smell from the CA fires.
