Winter Eclectic Tablescape

I love the word "eclectic." It's a more formal and socially acceptable way to say that we wanted to use stuff that we haven't used before or in a very long time for this week's tablescape. Besides, it was great fun (and sometimes surprising) to pull out dishes and glassware that have been relegated to a back shelf or the garage for a very long time.

The place setting

Flatware is Argent "Sofia" Green

Pat used a sage green placemat to "anchor" the setting followed by a wicker-like mat to add texture

We've had these chargers for a very long time - "Vermicelli" by Spode. Originally we bought them to go with Pat's Spode "Buttercup" dinnerware

Sorry the picture isn't too good - the plate is actually a dark olive green

The accent plate has olive green, teal, gold, red, and orange. We bought them to use with several of our more colorful dinner plates

We've also wanted to use this water goblet for a long time - "Diamond Point" by the Indiana Glass Co.

Pat took the small vegetable/berry bowl in the same pattern as the water goblet and used it as a tea light holder
