Autumn Southwest Tablescape

Pat's daughter just returned from a conference in Arizona for women physicians and had some time to come over to the coast to visit her parents. While she was here, she stopped by to visit me and met her mother at my house. Naturally, we "engaged" her in some tablescaping. Since the hot, dry Southwest was still on her mind, the table reflects her time at the conference.
Taking color cues from the Southwest-style napkin, the dinnerware is various Fiesta(ware).


Pat's daughter started with a heavy, dark brown textured place mat to build the setting
Flatware is "Hammered Copper" by Hampton Forge 
The Fiesta(ware) colors are: White, Chocolate, Flamingo, and Turquoise


The rustic glassware is from Pier 1


Where it came from:
Brown Place Mats - from a small, local boutique store that is no longer in business
Dinnerware - assorted Fiesta(ware) by Homer Laughlin from various places (Kohl's, Macy's and Replacements,Ltd.)

Glassware - Pressed Glass from Pier 1 many years ago
Napkins - Handmade by Pat
Copper Napkin Rings - from Pier 1 five or six years ago
