It’s Tuesday which means it is time for Tablescape Tuesday hosted by Susan and her blog Between Naps on the Porch.
I realized I haven’t used my every day Blue Willow dishes in a tablescape, so I thought I would use them this week.
I have a few serving pieces, but chose to use the place settings, berry/fruit bowls, and gravy boat. I didn’t want too much clutter on the table. Something is missing….duh, napkins (oops)
Here is the place setting. I never get tired of these dishes. I am glad I have been using my silver more often…what was I saving it for all these years?
Beneath the cereal/soup bowl is the salad plate…
and finally, the dinner plate…
Thanks for stopping by and visiting my Tablescape Tuesday and don't forget to visit Susan's blog Between Naps on the Porch to see more wonderful table settings!

ReplyDeleteSusan, beautiful table setting. Those charges witht he rope trim are so pretty. Blue & white china is my favortie, so I love this tablescape. laurie
ReplyDeleteSusan...your table is so pretty! I love the peach colored napkins & how they tie in to the candles ( they are peach? At least that is how they appear in the picture!
ReplyDeleteI was happy to see your berry bowls. I have never used mine and have often wondered where they went!!
Finally, do you have any recommendations on where to get pretty chargers??

Susan...hey there, love the blue and white! (surprise) ;) I think there's a few of us who love this blue/white. Totally such an inviting tablescape! Thanks for stopping in to my teacup blog and leaving the constant sweet comments. My mom is in town (teaparty mom who raised $1,000 to go towards the orphanage in Peru)., I showed her the comments from the post that I shared about that...she was so enamored by the whole blog thing... ;) Happy Tablescape Tuesday GA friend!
ReplyDeleteI will take the silverware. Very pretty. mishelle
ReplyDeleteI also love the classic Blue Willow. The braided trim on your chargers is some nice detail.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right not to save the silver for the next generation. I am all about using everything I have while I am still around to enjoy it!
Very pretty table.
What a pretty table this is. Blue Willow is one of my favorites. Kathy

I agree! Who could get tired of such classic beauty? I love your tablescape! :D Jewel
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, My MIL had a set just like that.
ReplyDeleteI've always loved blue willow and hope to have some pieces one day.♥
ReplyDeleteI think you could serve dessert on either of my blue cake stands!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty dishes. I love blue and white together. Always classy.
ReplyDeleteSusan! I would never grow tired of these dishes either. I've always loved the blue willow designs! I think they are classic forever dishes and what fun to change accessories to go with them. Beautiful...
ReplyDeleteI love this! Everytime I see a table set with Blue Willow it reminds me of having meals at my aunt's home, as a child.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful table.
Susan, I love your blue and white tablescape! May I borrow it??? I would feel right at home with that, and I like the gold chargers you used with it.
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday... see you tomorrow!

ReplyDeleteSusan, I love your tablescape today! I just did a post about my memories of my beloved Grandmother Blue Willow china. Check back & see the little plate & cover I found. Also, I saw a wonderful post today by Karen http://karenharveycox.blogspot.com/ & I sent her an email encouraging her to repost it for your Outdoor Wednesday. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love the blue and white. Something about blue to me is so soothing. Thanks for sharing. I will attempt your "Outdoor Wednesday" tomorrow. Maryrose
ReplyDeleteI agree with Maryrose there is something about about the color of blue- soothing and peaceful. I enjoyed peaking in on your Tuesday tablescape.
ReplyDeleteVery nice with your blue willow, like it!

Your "Blue Willow Tablescape" is just gorgeous. I love Blue Willow also. Have you every been to the Blue Willow Restaurant in Georgia? You'd love it...
ReplyDeleteYour dishes are really pretty. I have two or three pieces of dishes that color, but I don't know the name of the pattern. They were some pieces that came out of my Mom's home.
ReplyDeleteYour everyday dishes are the same as mine - just love them as they are so durable and versatile. How's your collection of red transferware coming? Have a great day. Sally
ReplyDeleteHi Susan, boy those dishes are beautiful. I love blue and white. It is so fresh and clean looking. You have done a great job on your table. It looks elegant! I love it. Susan I hope you have a great day!
ReplyDeleteDebbie
I just love Blue Willow. Hubby & I started out our marriage with an inexpensive set of four place settings of that pattern. Through the years I used it so much that not much has survived of it. I display with it now instead of using it. Only so much that glue can fix, you know?!?

I kept a grandson yesterday so I am just getting around to some of TT tables....sorry!
ReplyDeleteLove the British Colonial look of this table Susan...love it!
I do so like the way the barley twist candle holders repeat the pattern on the table setting!
ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting on my tablescape. I like the blue and white dishes against the dark wood and the accenting auburn color. Very nice. Toodles!
ReplyDeleteHi Susan. There is an award for you on my blog
ReplyDeleteSusan...I have the same everyday...well, at least my Churchill Blue Willow is what I use most days. :-) It's great, isn't it...almost indestructable! Love how your china looks against the gold chargers and the wood of your table. So glad to hear you use your sterling...who better to use it for than our families, right? :-) Beautiful candlesticks! Thanks for another great TT this week! :-) Susan
