New napkins and a crisp tablecloth
are a fine way to start a Sunday morning. In this case, this is a new pattern
from August Table called Juniper.
It’s a simple and whimsical pinecone
pattern with the most beautiful border.
This print is available in five different
colorways, and I just love this “Slate” blue color because it pairs so well
with some of my favorite vintage plates.
Raffia placemats, wicker napkin rings
and bamboo flatware always add the perfect dose of pretty texture to a table. A
few late season hydrangeas freshly cut from the garden soften the look of the
table and give us an extra special focal point.
Those vintage yellow goblets are
thrown in for a little dash of sparkle. There’s a funny story connected to
those, well sort of funny…
I found one at an estate sale
recently for $1, and didn’t think much of it, because there was only one, and I do like
to mix and match my vintage glassware.
Well, after sitting it on the table and
seeing the sunlight streaming though together with these table linens, I just
fell in love.
I was lucky enough to find 5 more
exact matches on eBay for a reasonable price and now I have a lovely set of 6.
These mid-century glasses, Kings Crown Thumbprint pattern by Indiana Glass are just the prettiest shade of
yellow. Nothing like the amber goblets I have in my collection.
I don’t know why, but I just like the unexpected
pop of yellow as an understated nod to autumn.
Folding the napkins in this fan
pattern also accentuates the fun border that goes all the way around this
print. Not too shabby for a casual Sunday brunch at home.

Just beautiful! I too love tablescaping, am a china & glass nut. I live in a tiny apt with little storage so thank you for posting these lovely images to keep me inspired. They remind me that everyday surroundings are important.
