Summertime and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin', and the cotton is high
Your Daddy's rich and your Mama is good lookin'
So, hush, little baby don't you cry

It may NOT be summertime yet, but the fish are jumpin' here on The Little Round Table and over at Tabletop Time with my friend Daphne who has Gone Fishin' We're both featuring Chicken of the Sea premium items on our tables today, so be sure to jump on over to check out her table too.
We've played with fish on our tabletops before with other dishing friends:
The fish plates came in a matte ivory glaze as shown here
and some rare examples with colored glazes that Daphne is featuring.
The tablecloth is vintage and the place settings also include vintage as well as Post86 Fiesta.

I agree with everyone. YOu do the most wonderful table settings and vignettes. I'm always fascinated by what you do. So clever. My favorite by far were the ones during the fall...Halloween I think. Loved what you did. Your kitchen is great for decorating too. I just love it.

ReplyDeleteThis is such a happy table. I'm enthralled with all the different pieces & the way you pulled them together, taking your cue from the colors in that beautiful vintage tablecloth. Beautifully done & I always learn something from reading about your collections.
