Simple Pelican Tablescape

 Pat was in rare form this week when she came up with a pelican-themed tablescape. She found a large, metal pelican figure stored in my garage and that was her inspiration for what was to become our tablescape. (I thought that I had hidden it better, but, alas, not good enough....)

Rope Charger - from Pier 1 several years ago

Dinner Plate and Matching Bread and Butter Plate - Cobalt Blue (1986-2021) Fiesta(ware) by Homer Laughlin from Macy's and Replacements,Ltd. at least fifteen years ago
