Set the Table - Blue White & Yellow

Set the Table - Blue White & Yellow


Our dishes by Hutschenreuther in Germany are called Elysee.


They are named for the Elysee Palace, President's Palace in Paris.


I have paired the dishes with a collection of blue and white temple jars, daisies and Stella de Oro Lilies from the garden.


Set the Table - Blue White & Yellow


It is a beautiful set that is white, pale blue, dark blue with pale yellow.

 The Salad plate has a butterfly in the centre.

The dinner plate has a fantastical tropical-looking bird in the centre.

The daisies and yellow lilies were simply laid on the table.

The wine glasses and tumblers are Miss Desiree by Villeroy & Boch.

We used a white tablecloth and white placemats.

We used the Louis XV silverware by Birks and flipped the forks and spoon over to show the backs.

The napkins are doubled - a white linen napkin paired with an embroidered navy napkin.

The napkin rings are stainless steel and came from Bowrings a few years ago.

Set the Table Easter Table

Easter Table




These little Bunny plates have been really popular this year.

The colour scheme for the table setting is Blue, White, and Green.

When I was young the saying was "blue and green are never seen".
In other words, someone decided that blue and green do not go together.  How funny is that?

I have used silver flatware and Waterford Chrystal.

Each place setting has a green goblet planted with small blue and white pansies.

The napkins are doubled.  They are a simple cotton green stripe and solid blue.
The napkin rings are green and white flowers, sort of like Queen Ann's Lace that we see here later in the summer.

The floral arrangement consists of Blue Pansies, White Muscari, White Ranunculus, Ivy, and Maiden Hair Fern.

I like the woodsy feel of the arrangement.

I managed to find the Bunny Salad Plates last year for Easter and we will enjoy them once again.
