Berry Nice!

This vintage strawberry table square inspired the setting for our Sunday dinner.

Fiesta dishes in scarlet and shamrock echo the colors of the berries.

Red and green glass plates and bowls of unknown origin were layered over the Fiesta dinner plates.

A scarlet Fiesta luncheon plate holds a white milk glass compote containing fresh strawberries.

Much to my guests' chagrin, they weren't allowed to eat the strawberries in the centerpiece (maybe tomorrow).  They got nectarines instead.

The centerpiece is flanked by two rose bowls containing blooms from the rose shrub in my backyard.

The Lilies Have Bloomed!

When I looked outside this morning, I saw that the lilies were in full bloom.  It was time for a new tablescape!

I put the lilies in my new Fiesta sunflower vase.

My daughter wanted to trying coating the strawberries I was planning to serve for dinner.  She did a great job!

 YUM!

This colorful tablecloth presents opportunities to use many of my colorful Fiesta dishes.  The place setting below utilizes shamrock, flamingo and lemongrass.

 This place setting has a sunflower dinner plate, a shamrock luncheon plate and a flamingo berry bowl.

I placed a shamrock berry bowl in a white milk glass compote to use as a butter dish.

I put a lemongrass dinner plate on a white milk glass cake plate to use as a serving piece.

This place setting uses Fiesta in shamrock, tangerine, and lemongrass as well as a white milk glass dessert plate.

The glasses/goblets are also Fiesta.  Each glass has colored rings near the base.

This white Fiesta heart bowl corrals the salt and pepper shakers...or should I say pepper and pepper shakers?  Oops!  One of the diners noticed that he had just peppered and peppered his potato shortly after we started eating!

 Love these lilies!
