Sunny End-of-Summer Tablescape

The pastel colors of spring have given way to the bright colors of summer. End of summer colors tend toward those of the sunset, and are made use of here.
As with my Farmhouse Table, this one sports a floral centerpiece, in this case potted Rudbeckia.
Inspired by these sunny flowers, I selected similar blooms in the napkin rings that hold checkered napkins.
Last week’s placemats and galvanized chargers make a return visit. This week the chargers are topped with sunflower yellow
Waechtersbach dinner plates.
On top of the dinner plates are Carly Dodsley salad plates in a chicken design.
As I’m sure you have noticed from the recipes I have posted most recently, I have been crazy about corn lately, so will be serving corn on the cob for dinner in these adorable corn holders that look like corn themselves.
These are Bordallo Pinheiro. The corn cup and saucer at each place setting are also Portugal majolica, as is the sugar and creamer set at center.
Antique replica flatware, a family favorite is from Pottery Barn.
Join me for dinner. We’ll have something corny.

You can see the corn dinnerware and be further inspired in this Crow & Corn Tablescape.

Absolutely just adorable.
Oh, how I get ideas and inspiration from you. Case in point...I have the same napkin rings from Pier 1 but had not thought to add black and white napkins to them...why, I don't know because black and white are my basic colors in every room of my house....
Your corny dishes are fantastic....just love them

This is PERFECT for end of summer dining!!!!!!!!!! The colors, the motif, the flowers...you nailed it all the way around! I’ve been watching the corn fields around here getting mowed as farmers ready for winter. It’s always a cool sight to see.
