It is terribly hot and humid here in Florida which prompted me to create a beachy tablescape. I think the pool makes a perfect back drop, don't you think?
I was too lazy to go to the garage to pull out my plates that are embellished with shells so I just used my turquoise plates that are being stored in one of the kitchen cabinets.
I borrowed the ceramic shells and a vase with grassy leaves and clam shells from the bathroom. They usually adorn our jacuzzi tub.
These beaded napkin rings are really old, from Pier One. I bought them before we even moved to Mississippi from Florida and now, we are back in FL. The aqua flatware set was a find from Homegoods, many years ago.
I cannot remember where I bought these plate chargers with sand dollars, starfish and shells on them.
Goblets from Horchow, also from many years ago. I have slowed down from acquiring more dinner and table wares because of storage problem. Besides, I am supposed to be downsizing, lol.
And there you are! I am already feeling a little cool from just looking at my table. Thanks for stopping by and thanks to the hostesses who are holding these parties. You are always appreciated.

Love it! I am new to trying to create nice tablescapes. I am kind of a dinnerware addict and am learning to mix and natch to use them more often.
ReplyDeleteChristine,
ReplyDeleteVery Pretty!! Thanks for the inspiration as I was looking for ideas since I am doing a Beach themed table for our church's Harvest Tea in October....
Hugs,

ReplyDeleteChristine I love your new house and this table with all the aquas is so perfect and lovely. I love your pool backdrop for the breakfast room. Great dishes you gathered for this setting too.

Love, love those blue plates, Christine!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely tablescape and I am so glad you shared at Dishing it and Digging it link party. You are one of our features for this coming Sunday's link party. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI am loving your table! After seeing your gorgeous table, I am thinking it is going to be hard for me to down size. Getting rid of dishes?? Not sure I could do that. LOL
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely table, Christine! I'm salivating over your feast! I visited Dresden 9 years ago (for just 1 day) and would love to go back to this beautiful city. I'm kicking myself for not picking up some Dresden china as souvenir.
