A Pretty Tablescape Overlooking Lake Wedowee

Turquoise and White Place Setting
A simple table setting for outdoor entertaining
Who loves to see a pretty tablescape? I know I do. My mother, just like her mother loved a pretty table. They were both collectors of china, crystal, and pretty dishes. Some of my most cherished possessions are dishes and stemware given or inherited from my mother and grandmother.

The women of my family have inherited the love of dishes as well. All three of my daughters have Fiestaware in their homes and their favorite colors of the American Made dishes are just as eclectic as they are. But, it makes gift giving a little easier as long as I can keep their colors straight.

​Anyway, along with dishes my mother also loved the color turquoise, anything close to it from sea foam to teal and everything in between. So when it came time for inspiration for this casual summer tablescape, it was obvious where my heart led me. During the photoshoot I sent a message to my girls saying this was “Grandmother Ann on a table.” I think its quiet lovely and I hope Ann Awbrey Glass would approve the following casual summer tablescape.

Our Tablescape

Our tablescape was inspired with the thoughts of sharing a relaxing day and enjoying a lovely supper with friends at the lake. Our color palette included turquoise and white with a hint of pink.

The materials we used included a rustic table, Fiestaware pottery dishes in turquoise and white, Fostoria tea glasses and wine glasses, a bottle of wine, serving pieces blush pink napkins and a floral centerpiece.

We choose to keep our centerpiece simple with pink Hydrangea in a white Fiestaware water pitcher and we adapted a casual place setting so we could show off as many of our pretty dishes as possible.
