Mardi Gras Celebration Table

Usually subtle and understated when designing a tablescape, Pat cast all inhibitions aside and set this week's table with loads of color and glitz in celebration of Mardi Gras.

The place setting

Pat used a clear napkin ring and added the colorful Mardi Gras mask ornament

Sorry the picture is not good - this is a purple glass charger

Pat used a purple water goblet and green champagne flute to add more color

Pat used dozens of strands of beads and colorful garland for the centerpiece
