Pretty and Pink Nostalgic Tablescape

Nostalgia struck this week as Pat was planning the table. We hauled out dinnerware (from some dark, long neglected corner of my garage) that Pat and I bought in 1993 for our niece's Bridal shower. It was an inexpensive set of glass dinnerware from Kmart - well more like many inexpensive sets - to use just for the luncheon. Since I rarely get rid of dishes, I still had it and in the same boxes that is was purchased in. So we thought it would be fun to use it one more time.....

Purchased in 1993, Arcoroc's "Canterbury" is still being produced today. 

Pat used a silver and glass charger to spotlight the place setting

Flatware is "Queensgate" stainless steel by J.A. Henckels

Pat made the pale pink napkins and used a glitzy silver beaded napkin ring

Pink glassware is "Royal Pierpont" by Noritake

The footed oval milk glass centerpiece bowl and Fostoria "Navarre" triple candleholders were found at a local antique store several years ago
