Fifty Two. 52. Zwei und fuenfzig. Ciquante deux. That's right. This is
the 52nd tablescape... a year of tables. Oh my. So to challenge myself I
did monochromatic. I kept wanting to add a punch of color, a bit of the
unexpected, but resisted.
A lace tablecloth on the glass table. A scrappy wooden charger. White dishes. Silver. And roses. That's about it.
A white plate rimmed in scrolls and a seashell.
Topped with a less ornate salad plate. Still white.
Mix and match silver. The one on the left is my favorite.
Silver banded in gold napkin ring.
Silver goblets and silver topped salt and peppers.
A perfect white rose.
Gorham silver candlesticks.
Now, if you live in West Texas, there ain't no way you could use a
candle outside - evah! So off to buy shorter candles, 'cause the elegant
hurricanes will be on the candles!
