May I invite you to my Garden Party? Please sit down and I will tell you about my dishes. My transferware plates are labeled on the back, Olde Alton Ware, England. I'm not sure how old they are. I bought each plate separately at antique stores. The sugar and creamer are labeled Japan, maybe 40's or 50's.
Sterling is Buttercup by Gorham.
In July, the hydrangeas change from blue to a beautiful green. I hope this arrangement will dry well. The stems are in an oasis and I will let it dry out naturally and use it on my dining room table.
I love my Mama's crystal which is Meadow Rose by Fostoria.
My centerpiece bowl is new and came from East Enterprises. I found the napkins a few years ago from our local AAFES store.
It's almost dusk now and the crickets are beginning to sing. I love this time of the evening. Thanks for listening to my story.

This is beautiful. The hydrangeas are fabulous...my blue ones haven't turned green. I want mine to look like yours. I think this table is very elegant and the outdoor setting really adds an extra special touch.

That china is beautiful, and I also love your Mother's stemware. It has such a delicate beauty. That huge bowl of hydrangeas will look beautiful as a dried centerpiece. laurie
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful romantic setting for an early evening meal. Your dinnerware is beautiful...nothing like crisp blue and white. The sparkling crystal is so pretty. I think your plates are circa 1930.

Have a great weekend, Bonnie!
