| OUT OF TOWN VISITOR LUNCHEON. A couple summers ago, Reba offered to host some out of town visitors for one of the groups she supports over to her home for lunch. This was during the summer time so she kept the menu and the color scheme very light. She used white table cloths with navy blue and white toile runners and navy and white buffalo check napkins for the table linens. For the centerpieces, she used her round oriental white and blue round planters. As you can see HERE, she has gotten a lot of use out of those pots and the Blue Italian plates. She also placed white basketweave ceramic baskets for bread in the middle of the table. |

| FRENCH COUNTRY BLUE. Reba used Spode Blue Italian plates on dark blue chargers. As we have mentioned before, Blue Italian was my everyday china when I got married and Reba liked it so much she began collecting it, too. Our other sister, Elsa, joined in as well, so now if anyone hosts a large party, we usually have enough Blue Italian/Blue Room plates for everyone. The goblets are blue cobalt. The silver is Towle Old Master, Reba's wedding silver. |
 |
| NAPKINS & NAPKIN RINGS. The navy and off white buffalo napkins were held by monogrammed silver napkin rings and placed on top of the plates at the place setting. White roses and blue hydrangeas were used for the blue and white centerpieces. Reba made a frozen dessert for the party that looked like watermelon from different sorbets. Either Reba or I will make a separate post about the dessert soon. |
