It doesn’t seem that long ago, but it has been nearly 10
years since I wrote a post about the play food that I used to love as a
child, you can read it here. Despite the fact that I haven’t been a child for a
longer than I care to admit, I still love play food. Recently, I was shopping
at one of my favorite places, The White Hare, when I found this pitcher of
lemonade. It was a part of a set that included glasses of lemonade, but they
were mason jars, and that wasn’t the look I was going for. I cannot tell you
how long I circled this pitcher before I bought it, their 20% off sale
justifying the expense.
Once I got home with it, I knew I had to set a table around it,
and that is how this one was born.
A pretty tablecloth can make even the simplest
table beautiful. This is one of my favorites, because it always says summer to
me.
I kept the antique crystal candleholders from last time, pairing
them with a white ironstone pitcher full of yellow Alstroemerias.

One of my favorite sets of salt

a touch of whimsy.
