Overview of the table
|
The place setting - don't be alarmed with the choice of flatware. It makes perfect sense once you notice the stems of the glassware.
|
The green color of the leaves is a perfect match to the sage color of the Mikasa Color Spectrum charger
|
You barely notice the clear salad plate
|
Once again, my photographic skill is limited - the charger is a beautiful sage green
|
In this picture you can see the stems of the glassware better - crisscross to match the flatware
|
I thought that Pat had "lost it" when she bought these silver plated butterfly napkin rings - but once again, I was wrong. They look great with this table.
|
Pat found eight of these little swirl dishes at a local antique store
|
This is one of my favorite things on this table - Pat used the individual butterfly hors d'oeurves plate as a tea light holder
|
Another double candle holder set from Pat's collection
|
We use the covered vegetable as a soup tureen because it is so big
|

I love your table this week and the Lenox Butterfly Meadow is one I enjoy setting a table with. The gorgeous butterfly napkin rings are the perfect accent. Your flatware and crystal stemware is a great match. Have a great week!

I always love Butterfly Meadow, and this table shows it off to perfection! The sage green chargers and dark candles give it a great transition-to-fall look. Those swirl bowls are gorgeous -- what a find! And how wonderful to have that large covered dish -- a terrific centerpiece.
ReplyDeleteLove this setting. Those chargers are perfect...everything is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful, as always (you are one of my favorite stops!!). I have this dinnerware, but have not used it yet. I hope my table can be even half as lovely as yours!! I never thought of glass salad plates, but I may have to add them to my wish list as I go "inventory shopping"!
