Hello sweet friends !
I have been away for very close to a month. I hope you've missed me, if not, don't worry, I'm just teasing you, lol..
I've been away cause life has gotten on the way and since January 27th. I haven't stopped the cleaning, the cooking and so much that involves making a luncheon for 14 for a first group with my American friends (other friends that speak English too) who have invited us to a concert of classical music to their home and later to a great BBQ.
So I just did last Friday, Feb 3, my husband's 70th. birthday luncheon for 20 people, his siblings and his dear cousins, Alejandro grew up with and love so much.
Anyhow... I was ever so busy, but happy.
For the 20 guests I even used my antique French marble table from the foyer to sit five, the main dining table for ten and the round breakfast table for five as well. Therefore, I had the 20 guest sitting comfy.
Here I'm sharing the three tables, with dog motif, that hubby loves, plus different dishes for every table. I didn't use the transferware blue and white on my last post and you will see why.
With that said..
I did this setting for ten guests in the formal dinner table with the china I have for 16; 'Home Gallery.'
I didn't use the transferware because I wanted to place each table with different china patterns and colors.
As centerpieces in all three table setting I placed a different color Cyclamen plant, which last very long on my kitchen window. |
The motif for every table setting were doggies, as hubby just loves them. |
In the main table setting I used the 'Viennese' engraved crystal goblets. |
The breakfast table was set with the 'balsa wood' place mats and the Oriental china in red and white. A couple of dogs here too. |
The glasses for the breakfast table are Mexican hand blown. |
Here a red cyclamen, more doggies and the Mandarin seal in the center of the china plates means; 'HAPPY HOME.' |
The French antique marble table in the foyer became a luncheon table for five as well, lol.. Here too I placed doggies and a white cyclamen as centerpiece, with the ever lovely Onion pattern china. |
The lovely stems are French and we inherited from my dear Mil. |
