Cheery New Year's Tablescape

 It's time to turn the corner on a bad, sad, and mad year. What better way to start next year than to set a fun, easy table that "sparks joy" (with all due respect to Marie Kondo, of course.) Pat picked red and white colors because they make her happy. Here's what she came up with:

No, not traditional Winter colors, but this table does light up the room.

Originally, Pat was going to set a large white soup tureen on the table to act as a centerpiece but after trying it, she decided to use red silk hydrangeas to add more color

Flatware is "Primary" by Noritake

Pat used a white "Fiesta(ware)" salad plate as a soup liner

The red and white gingham check luncheon plates are by "At Home with Marieke"

The bright, true-red plate is "Fun Factory" by Waechtersbach

I found these red glass candle holders at Ross a few years ago

The bright white pitcher holds red silk hydrangeas
