Summer Heat Tablescape

With most of the country suffering through horrible weather - floods, excessive heat, tornadoes - Pat thought that this week's table should reflect the unpredictability of our climate by setting a table with color tones that are slightly out of her comfort zone. She mixed oranges, yellow, and greens for a somewhat different and "sweltering" Summertime tablescape.




Pat used clear acrylic flatware so that the colors of the placemat showed through
Double napkins held by a flashy napkin ring adds to the "heat"

The "sizzling" orange dinner plate is "Fun Factory" by Waechtersbach



Originally, Pat used a flower arrangement for the centerpiece but settled for simple greenery. She felt that the flowers "competed" with the colorful plate settings.
Where it came from:
Floral Place Mats - from Tuesday Morning years ago
Sage Green Glass Chargers - from Pier 1eight or nine years ago
Orange Dinner Plates - "Fun Factory Free Style" by Waechtersbach from Replacements,Ltd.
Luncheon and Bread/Butter Plates - "Daffodil" Fiesta(ware) by Homer Laughlin from Macy's and Replacements,Ltd.
Flatware - Pattern unknown from Ross years ago
Glassware - "Carousel" by Anchor Hocking from Ross years ago
Napkins and Napkin Rings - from Pier 1
