I feel Green.......

This Tablescape was meant for last week but life happened here at the zoo.
So, I am posting it this week.
 I bet your wondering why I call my house a zoo????
Well you just keep wondering and when you decide why, you let me know! LOL

I bought these beautiful green glass chargers at Something Special and I just couldn't wait to use them. I actually wanted to use them for cookies with my green depression glass plates and with My Old Country Rose china.

Again, a simple dinner for hubby and me in the kitchen overlooking the pool!

The dishes are glass bought at the Dollar Store years ago. My mom and I have 12 each so we could put them together for large family dinners.

I used a green tablecloth folded in half to fit my small round table.
The lace overlay is my daughters veil from my brothers wedding.

Here's the other side of the plates!
The napkin was bought at Goodwill...it is really a small scarf for a tabletop.

This is the inspiration for this whole table. The plate is an emerald green with a gold rim.
I am not sure if you can tell....

                                               
                           This is the flat plate......

                                This is the soup or salad plate.

The little glass has a slight green bottom. The larger wine glass is etched.

My centerpeice is simple. I don't have flowers in my garden so silk will have to do.  

I probably paid 50 cents for this many years ago. I learned about antiques from many people but I had a cousin, Georgia, and  she would find places to buy old things. We would drive miles and go crawling around in old barns, under houses and in cellars to see what we could find. It was always an adventure. Back then people were not interested in collecting.

Crystal cruets for oil and vinegar

I had candles on the table too!

 I happen to love candles so I use them often.

                             

                  And who do you think was watching all the activity ????

                                         
                     Sweet Pea of course!!!!

                             Thanks for stopping by...................
