put pink and white ruffles a round my black placemat's for Shabby look.
Did I get the look Melanie?? I hope so..
Lets light the candles and have a Mint Julep.!! My friend purchased this Bourbon from
a shop at the Kentucky Derby, some years ago for me. great for Julep's. The Mint
has been muddle with the simple syrup..
I have five layers of China on this placemat.!!
Now ladies,!!
You know the flower plate is just a part of Me..
This is my new salad plate from Pier 1 Inport ~~
Black and White .I think it go's good with the black placemat's.
This is my vintage china Haviland and the pattern is called
Apple Blosson.
The stemware is a light green color,
from the Family Dollar store for $1.00 each.
This was a great fine!!

I hope your friend continues to improve. I'm thinking of getting those black and white plates too. I saw them last weekend when I was only looking. Great table as always.
What a beautiful sentiment, dedicating this tablescape to Melanie! I love your color scheme! The black place mats and plates look wonderful mixed in with the pale pink, soft sage and white. I especially love your centerpiece - your floral arrangement is lovely and classic.
Early congrats on your one year blog anniversary!
And, my prayers for Mel and her family will not stop until she's back home and healthy.

Lovely table and we'll pray for your friend. I love your Haviland dishes!!
Such a great mix. Love the white flower plates. So glad you came to the party!
I think you nailed the look for sure; this is a beautiful setting. I really like how you softened the black placemat with the lace. I love those white flower plates you've put under your soup bowls. I am always drawn to two-handled soup bowls and yours are lovely.
I pray your friend, Melanie, will heal quickly and be back with her family and friends soon.
Hi Diane,
I hope your friend, Melanie, is feeling better today. It was sweet of you to set this beautiful table in her honor. I love that you combined vintage Haviland with glasses from Family Dollar! So creative and much more interesting when you combine your tabletop items in unexpected ways!
Warmest regards,
Bill
Diane,
I hope that Melanie is coming along. Your table is so sweet. Such a lovely table. The Haviland is gorgeous.
