I'm not usually a fan of large flowers on vintage tablecloths, but this one is an exception.
I think these are stylized magnolias. Rose, White and Black Post 86 Fiesta,
Cityscape flatware, contemporary glassware. Roses from my garden.
The donkey planter/vase is also vintage and came in many colors,
handpainted with gold highlights and also cold painted.

Such a fun table. Definately worth repeating.

Yes, this table is definitely worth a rerun. Love those napkins with the pink bows and each one of those precious little donkeys. ~ Sarah
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful tablescape. I know its magnolia blossoms, but the colors remind me of apple blossoms. That donkey vase is very fetching, do you have all those colors in your collection?
ReplyDeleteMy mom had a donkey kind of like that. It was terra cotta and had a cactus growing in it's back.
ReplyDeleteI love pink and green together. A lovely table setting for sure!
ReplyDeleteI really like the large flowers on the table cloth, and it is a great shade of pink. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI thought of you yesterday when I bought a vintage tablecloth. I have no idea what kind it is, but boy is it in great shape. 18.00 is all I paid, so I was really excited!

Hi Candy...
ReplyDeleteLove your beautiful vintage "magnolia" tablecloth! That's such a pretty shade of pink! The fiestware pink goes perfectly with the tablecloth! I also really like those sweet, pink ribbon napkins! Gorgeous, my friend! Thank you for sharing your beautiful table with us today for Sunday Favorites!!!
Warmest Labor Day wishes...

Mary - Congrats on your tablecloth! Be very very careful ...... they are very addicting!
ReplyDeleteJane - Donkeys are like rabbits, they just seem to multiply! I think I have about a dozen in my collection!
Hope to see you all again very soon!

I have a McCoy basket with a glaze simliar to the fruit skin...must have been a pottery trend!
ReplyDeleteHi Daphne -
ReplyDeleteI think of it in the same way I think about the "crystalline" glazes. Beautiful, but perhaps not something that would work for mass production. So many great ideas from the past.
