Ooh La La! I love Paris!

Presenting my Parisian table creation!
I set it in the breakfast nook because I only have a service for 4 set. I have a bigger set in black and white that has a slightly different pattern but still with Paris theme but I still have not located them in the garage.

 I really like the color of this set with pink and green. Here is a stack of dinner, salad and a dessert plate.
 I added some floral place card holders in terracotta pots.
 I love these flatware set with fleur de lis handles. I got them from Horchow many years ago. I love anything with fleur de lis because it was our insignia in high school. And it is Frenchy so it will blend with my theme here. You will notice a fleur de lis finial on my centerpiece too.

 Eiffel Tower salt and pepper shakers.

 I bought this glass Eiffel Tower from a flea market in Paris. And to the right is my fleur de lis finial!
 I think this embroidered table topper with lace edging is so pretty. I bought it from Rothenberg, Germany during one of our travels.
 The tall Eiffel tower structure was from Ross in Baton Rouge, LA, from a long time ago.








I managed to find a Frenchy tea/coffee pot from my collection.




 I thought I would add a picture of me and hubby taken while we were having dinner on the Eiffel Tower a few years ago. It is one of my favorites!
Thank you for stopping by. I really appreciate your visits and comments and appreciate all the hostesses.

What a fun table! I liked how you incorporated the souvenirs from your Parisian trip.

On an unrelated note, I also love the ladder against your bookcase. I always dreamed about having a library a la Beauty and the Beast.

Such a lovely post and such a coincidence for me to spot your post as I will be traveling to Paris in September. Your Eiffel Tower themed tablescape is jolie. I am visiting from Rose Chintz Cottage. Regards, Jill

Ooh lala! These plates are so pretty in the pink and green! We had the chance to visit Paris twice this past six months - probably a little much, but it didn't get old! Love the photo of you two. We ate there once and it was amazing!
