Garden Gnome Tablescape

Garden gnome figurines are the epitome of kitsch - those tacky, tawdry, junky, and sometimes offensive garden additions that some people love and some people love to hate. I fall somewhere in between. I love them but wouldn't have them in my yard. But as a dish decal, yes. As a tablescape centerpiece, a definite yes. So Pat once again broke down and decorated this week's table to make me happy.

The accent plate is "Gnome" from Kiss That Frog dinnerware

Pat used used the large dinnerplate from Pfaltzgraff's "Naturewood" as a liner/charger and the solid green buffet plate as a dinnerplate

The dinner plate is 11 1/4" in size
