Inspiration placemats came from Tuesday Morning, on clearance. I think these babies could go in many different directions. The direction I took was, well I'm not sure, If you think of a "name" leave it in the comment box! :)
I started bringing out the dishes and things, sitting them on the table and I thought it looked so pretty and the light was really nice...I started taking pictures.....*click*
(this is one of my favorites!)
I started setting the table...*click*
I was able to incorporate the pretty bottles I bought at Nell Hill's a few weeks ago, too.
Do those salad plates look familiar? I used the blue version in my "Ode to the Ocean" Tablescape. Those of you that commented that you bought the same plates at Pier 1, know that the set contained 2 blue and 2 green plates. The green was perfect with the placemats, and the silver related to the silverware. The Claremont dishes strike again! Little milk glass compotes with an apple complete the setting.

The basket cloche is from work, it's the same material that is around the bottles. It's some kind of limed wicker-or-something-or-another.....*click*

ReplyDeleteHi Michelle...thanks for stopping by my blog...and that you actually enjoyed my writing style...please stop back as I am filled with witty stories.. First...remember you can never take too many pictures...they were great, the tale was lovely but I really enjoyed seeing you use bits of Milk Glass....I have a pretty large collection and I love how you used the compote dishes for the apples....Sue.

ReplyDeleteThe color scheme is awesome. Love the tablscape you have put together.
ReplyDeleteThey were gorgeous...really!!
ReplyDeleteOh and a progressive dinner is several couples jumping from house to house for each course of a meal. So it's just a giant moving party of people taking turns eating at eachother's houses.
Very cool. Modern never looked so elegant. Ahh..there's your style...Elegant Mod!

Girl, you just go right ahead and click away because they were all gorgeous. I just took my time meandering through and enjoyed it all!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! I gotta find me a wicker cloche!!! (hehehe)
Gorgeous table! Love all the white with the touch of greens! Good job!
ReplyDeleteNot too many pictures IMO...not too many at all!
Love your table, especially all of your milk glass touches. I have one of those little milk glass bowls that you have at each setting. I might just have to put an apple in it too! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThose pictures could be in a magazine. I enjoyed everyone of them. I also loved the wicker cloche. It added another element of texture besides the milk glass. Lovely! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteOnce again Michelle you created a gorgeous table!
ReplyDeleteKudos to you!
Happy summer!
Michelle, you really put a lot of work into this. Yes, it's perfection. You have the gift. I don't know who Nell Hill is, but I like her. The green apple in the milk glass? Way cool.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful natural tablescape. It felt one with the outdoors. I loved it.
ReplyDeleteThis post looks like it was styled by Pottery Barn! So pretty and elegant. You hit the mark on this one, my dear!

ReplyDeleteI loved all your photos. I too am guilty of taking a lot. But it's so hard to choose which ones to use. Your table is fabulous. I loved everything. Thanks for visiting my blog & leaving me a comment.
ReplyDeleteGreat post and in my opinion you can't ever have too many pictures.
ReplyDeleteThe tops plates with the cool, funky circles on them are my favorite. :)
Beautiful alfresco summer tablescape! I love the photos where the shadows of the tree branches dance along the table! Makes it all so breezy and inviting! Your plates and placemats are adorable and I love the green GSmith apples! Loved all the photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
