We invited a couple over for dinner the other night and I put together this tablescape and thought I'd share it with you.
There's flowers and fruit on the tablecloth , so thought I'd stick to that theme and use a candle centerpiece surrounded by fruit.
I bought these monogramed plates at Kirkland a while back. I also used monogramed coasters from Tuesday Morning with cyrstal stemmed glasses.
Pretty floral napkin rings from Penny's, slipped onto black napkins.
A little candlelight to set the mood for the evening.
Stop by Susan's @

Your table is beautiful! Black is so striking and I love how you've paired it with the florals and fruits. Cute initial plates to!

Very pretty....I love the black. Those "J" plates are lovely. My last name begins with a J as well. Gonna have to check Kirklands when I go to SC this summer. We dont have one up here in NJ. Beautiful table!
I don't see black in many tablescapes, but I must admit, you make it look really nice. Love those monogrammed plates. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful table! I love your monogram plates. What a treat for your guests!
Beautiful setting! Love your centerpiece!

Very pretty tablescape! Love the monogrammed dishes...I have some black and white "B" plates that I need to use in a tablescape sometime. I hope your summer is going well... Kristen
Those initial plates are so distinctive and look so pretty on top of the others. This is a lovely tablescape.
What a wonderful tablecloth! You did a great job highlighting it with your centerpiece and flower napkin rings. The black adds great drama!
I want to come to dinner at your house! It would make me feel so special! If you cook half as well as you decorate, it would be an evening fit for a queen.
Thanks for your tips on Disney World! I have heard about the fast pass...I'm sure we will take advantage of it. I have a thin Nike drawstring backpack I will be taking for extra food and water. My dad purchased the Disney dining plan, so our meals are included...but I have low blood sugar and will need to take bars with us in case I have a weak spell.
Kevin's uncle is taking care of our yard and animals. I have anxiety about it! I soak each flower really good...he better come over before we leave so I can show him how I do it! lol...I bet everything will be ripening in the garden too...and poor little Sassy will be so depressed. Oh well, I'll try not to worry too much! Thanks for your visit! Kristen
Such a fun dinner party. They must have felt so special. I especially love the black plates topped by the initial plates. Thanks for sharing.
Love your dramatic tablescape. Black background and the fruit are my favorite choices for a special night. Your guests will feel special dining at your table. Thanks for sharing.
So pretty!!
Happy Table Scape Thursday~~~
Love the black!!

Wow, what a stunning table!
What a dramatic look. The black makes everything stand out. Love the inital plates. Thanks for sharing and have a great day.
Yes, I agree with Cynthia. It does have a dramatic look but in the best way. Reminds me to the flemish flower and fruit paintings. Really impressive table.
Greetings, Johanna
Beautiful!
Love the monogram plates. This is such an elegent setting with the mixture of fruits and flowers.
What a pretty and inviting table! I bet your guests were tickled pink to sit down to this table!
Absolutely LOVE the monogrammed dishes....now I am so going to be on the hunt for some of those! What is it about me and dishes? I love them - but you can set such a pretty table with them. Just like yours! Everything looks lovely:)
Hi Rose,

Hope you are enjoying your summer, and staying cool.
