Everything seems to coordinate with the Courtly Check pattern by MacKenzie-Childs...
...the black flower market salad dishes are new to my collection...
...and they match my new painted tablecloth...
...did you know that you can paint on fabric? The fibers in cotton fabric absorb the acrylic paint and it won't wash out!
The painted fabric is trimmed in black and white striped fabric to tie in with the checks on the dishes...
...and the M-C glassware...
....it was a perfect setting for salad and pasta...
....our large outdoor table set has been stored away for the winter...
...so this small, folding table was perfect for 2...
...napkins were tied around the flatware so they wouldn't blow away in the wind...
...and the highball glasses were used for water - no wine with dinner tonight...
...these wrought iron stands are perfect for enamel bowls...
...because when you put anything in or on enamel, it holds the heat, so these stands keep the bowls off the table!
We are enjoying the last few warm days of dining al fresco!
