Black and Beige Tablescape

This week's tablescape is the exact opposite of last week's bold, bright orange table. Pat wanted to use Ivory colored Fiestaware - it's a basic color that goes well with with most other colors. She paired it with black after recently finding a set of beautiful black/beige placemats at Tuesday Morning.

Over view of the table. Pat did not use a tablecloth allowing the natural light wood of the farm table to show through.

The place setting

Pat used black stemmed water and champagne goblets

A black napkin surrounds a beige one with gold beads. It is held together by a napkin ring in the same colors from Pier 1.

First layer of the place setting is a square soup bowl in a matte finish from World Market

An ivory colored Fiestaware Luncheon plate by Homer Laughlin is next

A very glossy black Waechtersbach Fun Factory dinner plate holds the luncheon plate

The charger is actually a gold/brown color

Flatware is one of our favorites - "Image" by Spode

The five piece place setting

Pat used a very simple centerpiece. She found these clever candle holders at a local thrift store.
