Although most people are posting Easter tablescapes, of course, we have to be the "odd man out" once again. Due to unforeseen circumstances Easter Brunch was postponed - we will post that tablescape later. But life does goes on.....so here is a Moroccan-style table that Pat came up with earlier this month (because I had to have these wonderful gold plates and bowls that were on sale at Pier I. Sound familiar?)





Overview of the table. The rich gold of the placesettings look especially nice with the trumpet style multi-colored glass (also on sale at Pier I.)

 



Sorry Betty (in the background) is still "dressed" for the first tablescape we posted. I promise to have her "ready" for the next dinner.





The amber/gold colored cracked crystal glasses are also from Pier I. They work well with many different tablescapes. The large glass is actually a wine glass but it is used as a water glass here.

  





Both of these votives were purchased at Michael's recently.

  

The napkins (a turquoise blue and a rust colored napkin to match the colors in the trumpet glass) are covered with a gold overlay (Pat made all of them from material from JoAnn's Fabrics.) The napkin ring picks up the same colors.

The flatware is Gold Ionic by Wallace from Replacements.com. 

Yes, I love these glass balls. And Pat is right - I use them too many times, but they are sooooo pretty. And the color goes so well with the Moroccan table.

Time to decorate the table again......this time was really fun. Pat and I went to Pier I a couple weeks ago, and I fell in love with these napkin rings. I just had to have them but had no idea what to do with them (besides, that's Pat's job. I just "fall in love" with stuff and she always figures out how to use it. She has the table talent - I have the table.)  Anyway......here is what she came up with in about five minutes of "shopping" in the cupboards, shelves, storage area, etc. I think she "aced" it again.

Here is a close-up of the napkin ring. It is really unique.

The place setting uses green Depression glass (Spiral by Hocking Glass, 1928-1930) and the green goblets are by Tiffin. The turquoise wine glass is from Pier I. The white shell plate is by Otagiri. Flatware is King James silverplate by Oneida.

The table is set using a fishnet over a simple white cloth. Assorted shells and glass balls act as the centerpiece. White candlesticks and white lanterns are placed on each side.
