Market Basket Tablescape

Today I am featuring one of my favorite everyday sets.  You have seen this before paired with other dishes to create a Cinco de Mayo table but today I want to feature it alone.  I purchased this set several years ago from Ross.  It's called Market Basket, isn't that a wonderful name.  I've set our kitchen table for dinner tonight as this is where we always eat and will do so tonight after the photo shoot.

I'm also trying something new in an effort to save a little time..it's just photos!  Hope you enjoy!




















































Dishes; Market Basket from Ross
Tumblers; Tervis
Flatware; Tuesday Morning
Napkins; Old Time Pottery
Placemats; Tomlinsons Warehouse
Napkin Rings; yardsale

Fitz & Floyd fruit vase; Tuesday Morning

I am joining http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/ for Tablescape Thursday.  Be sure and visit this link if you like to see more inspiring settings.

    Oh I love it. I love the fruit dishes and then the black and white check is just perfect. Your lazy-susan is so fun. I just saw one at GW and didn't buy it. What in the world was I thinking. I need my head examined. Yours is so pretty and all of your accessories are stunning. Of course you know I really love that lime candle in the pretty hurricane. I am all about lime all of a sudden. Gorgeous table. Hugs, Marty

    I love those dishes. The color combinations open up for so many fun possibilities! I love the way it looks with the gingham.

    I also love those napkin rings and that monogrammed flatware. Want some of that!!

    I am a sucker for any plates with fruit on them, and this set is spectacular! I really love the border, and you've accented it beautifully with the black trimmed placemats and black gingham napkins. Your whole dining area is so appealing!

    A wonderful bounty of summer fruited tablescape. I especially like that candle holder. This is all so pretty and what a welcoming table you have.
