Beeutiful Table

When I leased the lobby space at the Head House I knew I wanted to put a round table there and share some of my most favorite tablescapes. Honeycomb depression glass bowls, vintage sugar and creamer and cut glass goblets were a must for the table.

A began with bees of course, since that's the "mascot" if you will of Beeutiful by Design. These wonderful bee hive towels and bee towels by Mary Lake Thompson and bee and teapot napkins were the perfect additions.

I layered yellow terra cotta rimmed plates, on purple round placemats on a black and white toile tablecloth. I like the punch of purple between the yellow and black & white.

Now as you reach the 2nd floor of Head House a cherry table is waiting to greet you!

I'm joining Tablescape Thursday at Between Naps on the Porch!

Beeutiful tablescape



Madison wants you to join us for dinner on the porch.


Okay Mr. B wanted Madison up on the table, see her reaching


for a treat from him, we really don't let our pets on the table.


Tonight I featured black and cream along with my wonderful


Mary Lake Thompson bee napkins!



Here's the placesetting totalled layered with the lace cream plate on top.




Underneath is the green ceramic plate.




Followed by a black charger and a black rattan placemat.




Here's a bird's eye view.


And a closer picture of the napkin feature.

Guess we're having sandwiches because


apparently I forgot the silverware!




In the center I placed some yellow day lilies


getting ready to burst into bloom.




The candles are cucumber tea lights on star of david coasters.




The green wine glasses look lighter than they are in person.


They are really a Forrest green.


Hope you enjoyed this table setting.


Thanks for stopping by to visit!


Please join Susan over at Between Naps on the Porch
