I adore mixing and matching when it comes to creating a table design. Here, I am designing using a delicate French Limoge placesetting created in the late 1800’s. I paired them with a modern Kate Spade pink and gold plate beneath. I also have a white linen placemat stiched with gold thread placed on top of a lovely @april.cornell tablecloth. Using vintage or antique china, napkins, drinkware, and serving pieces brings to your table a depth of character that is welcoming and inviting. Mixing and matching patterns is such a lovely way to bring interest and color to your table. Swipe life to see a dessert I created. On this day, I made peach and blueberry galette with a Graham Cracker Crust. I found it on the cover of @bonappetitmag. Since both peaches and blueberries are in season, it was the perfect dessert for my guests. The recipe was easy to make and super delicious. When serving my dessert, I used a large rustic serve board and simply laid a few desserts on it for my guest to take as they wished. I love using wooden serving pieces like this because it changes things up and brings a wholesome feel to the table. Casual elegance doesn’t mean you have to use all your best china. You can bring warm colors, wooden pieces and mix old with new. Have an amazing weekend my friends. #eleganttable #tabledecoration #casualelegance #design #vintage #frenchlimoges #diy #jewelryforyourtable #grandmillennialDecor #entertainathome #dessert #galette #frenchstyle #roses #table #tableinspo #setthetable #theartofthetable #placesettings #tablescapes #merzelifestyle #beautiful #settingthetable #tablesettingideas (at Connecticut) https://www.instagram.com/p/CR9CFT1n25v/?utm_medium=tumblr
