As usual you guys have inspired me again. I keep seeing how you keep the table set and how pretty it looks, so I made a small change on the breakfast table.
I was previously just using one runner and the rooster on the table. I made these runners years ago and decided to put them both back on and do a mock setting.
I love how the morning sun casts shadows on the arrangement. Makes the candle look like it is glowing and shows how beautiful the feathers are.
A tiny wood flower and a pretty bow spruces up any arrangement.
I've had these stems for years. I found them at Pier One and love the etched palm trees. I think they work well with the tortise chargers with the wicker edges, sort of a neat tropical look.
I use to keep the table set this way in our previous home all the time, fun to do it again. Thanks so much for stopping by, I always look forward to your visits.

So pretty Marty! Using 2 table runners makes a table look so welcoming! I like your napkins fluffed up on each plate.
ReplyDeleteVery Pretty! I like the color combination.
ReplyDeleteI usually kept my table set with decorative settings when I worked. Now it stays cluttered with projects, laptop, etc. I really need to figure something else out.
Enjoy your evening.
Great table setting Marty! I keep both my dining table and breakfast table set at all times...I love the look!

Your table looks beautiful Marty! I love your centerpiece and your amber glasses!
ReplyDeleteYour table looks so pretty Marty. I love the colors!
ReplyDeleteI saw a white chicken or rooster soup tureen the other day at Good Will, Marty, that had your name all over it. Looked good as new with a lid and ladle. I didn't check it any further than that because I'm not into chickens or roosters, but I remember thinking you'd love it! It would look great on your table.
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so cozy and inviting. Can I come to breakfast :-).

Those colors are all just gorgeous together, Marty. I love those double runners. Sometimes our "old stuff" is the best, isn't it? Hope you have a good night- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteHello Marty. I love how you used 2 tablerunners. What a great idea! All the browns with touches of cream and tan work so well together. Simply lovely!
ReplyDeleteMarty, I get inspired by bloggers, too. In fact you have inspired me many times with your creative abilities. Take your centerpiece for instance. I love what you did with the arrangement in the rooster. The feathers and candle were a nice touch. Everything matches very well with the pretty runners and other colors in the room. Thanks so much for showing your gorgeous table at my party.--------------- Shannon
ReplyDeleteLove it Marty. It looks beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThose runners are just lovely. I need to try this look on my round table too, crossing two runners as place mats for four. Hugs,

ReplyDeleteI do love the two runners used instead of place mats. The blending of hues in your chargers, glasses and centerpiece is stunning! Now...did I miss when lunch was to be served??? The sun shining on your table is so~o~o inviting!!!
Fondly,

This table is soooo my taste! Love how you brought your rooster up to date by putting the feathers (trendy) in the arrangement. Your runners look great and so do those chargers. Just love the whole thing!

Good looking table Marty. I like how you used two table runner. That gives me an idea, I just bought a table runner but couldn't figure out how to use it on my round table. Now I'm going back to the shop and see if I can get a second one to match. Thanks for the inspiration.
