Breakfast in Blue and White Fleur de Lys

http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/2009/04/welcome-to-34th-tablescape-thursday.html Please join Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for some fantastic tablescapes!
Welcome to a breakfast in blue and white... I bought these fleur de lys dishes a few years ago at the Pottery Barn/Williams Sonoma outlet store. I think they are fun to use for breakfast - I especially like the deep bowls - perfect for cereal or fruit. They came in yellow and also red. Wish I had the other colors as well! I sure wish I had noticed how crooked the candles were while I was taking my pictures ;)
I used all items that I had for this tablescape except for the tuilips. I went to Kroger with red tulips in mind - that seemed to be the one color that they didn't have! I like yellow with blue too:)
The silverware comes from my grandmother, the silver sugar and creamer from my husbands grandmother. Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you all have a wonderful Thursday!

  1. Karen - this is lovely. It's hard to beat blue and white w/ a touch of yellow. The red tulips would have been pretty, but the yellow ones are divine. This is such a sunny, bright and cheerful table. Thanks for sharing, Barb
