Flirting With The Tropics


Flirting with the idea of going Up, Up and Away to the tropics!
Enough with the wet, cold, foggy, rainy ....... U is for Up, Up and Away ...

This vintage tablecloth holds the colors of the tropics and perhaps the
addition of some tropical fruits and some jerked chicken will have to
satisfy me for today. More details on the elements at the end of this post.

Calgon take me away .....

    Love the colors! I snagged those salad plates too. It's a great combination of colors which evoke a tropical feel on the table.

    Definitely very tropical looking tablescape! I love the parrot salt and pepper shakers and the napkin rings. Definitely makes me think of the rainforest with the colorful birds and all that lush green forest!

    Quick!

    Your shoelace is untied.

    What condiment server?

    Of course, I didn't snatch it when you were checking your shoe lace.

    Would I do such a thing to one of my favorite tablescapers ever?

    Seriously.

    No, I am just very lumpy. It's lumpy fat. That is NOT your condiment server under my shirt.

    Sigh.

    Thanks for another envy inducing link to Alphabe-Thursday's letter 'U'.

    Loved this!

    A+

    Your tables always take my breath away. I love your use of bright colors. And, if I had your kitchen to walk into each morning, I would fast grin myself to death. :))

    What flair you show today. I can't pick a favorite element because I like it all. I think I have figured out that you like vintage linens.
