Pat decided to challenge herself this week by using a somewhat nondescript set of German porcelain dinnerware that we haven't used in years and update it to add more color and style. By adding mirror place mats and red accents, the table becomes vivid and lively.
The off-white porcelain plate has gray flowers and is trimmed in gold
Pat used a Depression Glass dinner plate to add more detail
The Chinese Red Charger is an inexpensive plastic charger (you can always find them at thrift stores and yard sales) spray painted with plastic-adhesive spray paint to match the glassware and flatware
Glassware is "Midnight Rouge" by Artland
The glitzy napkin ring adds lots of needed sparkle to the place setting
An assortment of glittery balls adds more "glam"
Where it came from:
Rectangular Mirror Place Mats - from Michael's years ago
Dinnerware - "Sepia" by Heinrich from a local antique store years ago
Red Glass Dinner Plate - Depression glass by Anchor Hocking from our collection
Chinese Red Charger - Inexpensive plastic charger spray painted to match glassware
Flatware - Red "San Remo" by Hampton Silversmith from Tuesday Morning ten years ago
Glassware - "Midnight Rouge" by Artland from Replacements,Ltd.
Napkin Rings - from Pier 1 ten years ago
Gray Napkins - Handmade by Pat
Centerpiece Gold and Red Balls - from Pier 1 six or seven years ago
Red Glass Candle Holders - from Ross several years ago
