White, White and More White!

Thank you so much for this fun table setting event Kathleen! Please visit her site at http://cuisinekathleen.blogspot.com/ There will be a whole lot of beautiful tables I'll bet.




Here's my white on white dish tablescape. I love it!! But there's something missing. Oh . . . flowers. I added them later in the photos. It was breezy and I was having a heck of a time keeping the candles burning. I used up a whole book of matches.
(By the way don't forget if you click on my photos they will get bigger.)


There's those little birdies again!

Cups and saucers are from Goodwill. Go with everything! And, you know . . . . very cheap. (or I mean inexpensive)

My sterling silverware is Towle, Rambler Rose. My Godmother started buying me a piece for every occasion when I was born! I REALLY appreciate it now! I need a new silver box though. My old one doesn't seal well enough anymore.

Those lady golfers are probably wondering what on earth I'm doing over here. Such a pretty table, a camera on a tripod and I looked a wreck! I bet they wonder who's coming to dinner????

The crystal wines were a wedding gift I think. It's all kind of a blur!

This sugar spoon was my Mom's

This pretty sugar and creamer I found at T J Max for $3.99 each.

Look at these pretty little napkins. I got four of them at GW for $1.00. Well, really $.80 because I had a 20% off coupon for everything that day!

The sun is going down and no one is here but me!

Changed the napkins to inside the glasses.

I definitely like the napkins in the wine glasses the best.

White, silver and crystal looks beautiful by candlelite.

Let's face it, it's night and no one is coming!! That's OK, there wasn't any food anyway!!!
This was fun. Have a great Tuesday everyone. Time for bed!!

  6. Your tablescape kind of looks like mine, outdoors, too. I love the look at dusk of the glow of the candles. Your yard is so pretty.

  8. Oh the candlelight is so nice. You really have some great pieces there and the price is right. If anyone came they would just spill all over your lovely white table and you would have to get mad at them.

  16. Hi Shirley! I just now noticed that silver spoon. I didn't notice it in your post before. I think I was just so memorized by your incredible table in the yard! Anyway... I have no idea what the name of the flatware is... I got it from a neighbor when I moved into my new house... I kid you not... its engraved with an "S" and she said her name begins with a "K" and she liked me! So she gave me the whole set!
