A Country Table

I'm continuing on with Chicken Decorating from my previous post HERE.
I've just added two simple place settings.
Big blue checked napkins and my Franciscan 
English ironstone dishes
in the Denmark pattern.
The chicken-in-a-basket  S&P's
The star at the table is this pretty orchid
that I picked up this week from a roadside vendor.
It has beautiful blooms that should last
 a very long time.
Then it goes outside to join the others.

Cheers!

    The pickets have been a real winner. They work with so many things! The blue of the Denmark with the glorious pink orchid is so special. I love it! Thank you for sharing your wonderful design. Cherry Kay

    Rita, that blue is divine. I scrolled down to browse through your other chick post. Love the colors, LOVE the picket base for the centerpiece and love the orchid. Do you have any luck with them after they're done blooming? I could never get mine to bloom again.

    My eye keeps focusing in on your table and chairs though. I have to get a new one for our kitchen and I'm thinking round glass top so that it looks more roomy but I want comfortable chairs with arms. Wonder if you have another post with your table. Gonna go browse your page now. ;)

    What a cute table. And I'm singing along with "There's a Summer Place". Loved that movie.
