May Table Setting

I brought in one of my vintage soda crates 

to use for the centerpiece on our table.

The yellow and blue in the Chinese tea pot 

are the same colors as the Pepsi crate.

 It has 4 sections to fill.

Remixing my things gives me a new look. 

I'm using this vintage flower frog as a 

place card holder.

The dishes are Villeroy & Boch Botanica.

I found a nice thyme plant at Publix.

I've snipped it for several of our favorite

grilled meat marinade recipes:

Flank Steak & Pork Tenderloin

as well as Roast Chicken. I love fresh thyme.

 This section holds extra napkins.

 A votive holder, cocktail napkins, 

a Ball jar filled with tableware, 

and my orchid are in this section.

There's a place for wine, a 

bottle of Pellegrino water, another 

votive light and

 salt & pepper.

Set for two.

The tea set.

The votive glass holders are old insulator 

caps. The metal stands just happen to fit.

I saved the stands when their original

glass cups broke. 

I like these vintage glass 

insulators better. 

I think they make great votive holders.

They give a nice light during dinner.

Cheers!
