On one of our last days in Arizona, hubby decided he wanted to go check out a golf superstore and look what we came home with…
Should I feel guilty?
It just so happened that there was a Pier One across the parking lot and I thought it would be the perfect place to spend an hour or so.
When I entered the store, the salesclerk asked me what brought me in. I started to say “well, my husband is over shopping at the…” when she put up her hand and said “say no more!” and we both had a little chuckle.
I started out simply admiring the beautiful displays and began to wonder what it was that made them so amazing (apart from the delicious dishes). I spent 15 minutes just staring at all the different table settings, thinking, thinking.
Then I realized that it was the layering! Tablecloths, placemats, chargers, large plates, medium plates, small plates. And the serviettes! I had never thought of putting two serviettes in one holder. An “aha” moment…
The wheels were turning. I already had a set of white dishes so I could have a little fun here! All I needed to find were a couple of small plates with some white in them. These blue, white, gold, and green ones were just the ticket! I love green so I rummaged around and found two wicker placemats that I really liked–perfect! Of course everything in the store is coordinated so it wasn’t difficult to find two different types of serviettes, and some pretty holders.
Do you like my wildflowers and my target vase? So simple, but so perfect.
I love these colours…
If you didn’t see the tour of our “little get-away” in Arizona, check it out here.
Hubby didn’t get his golf clubs. But no worries… he’s going to get them here at home. He said he was just getting ideas. :)

i’m not into tablescapes, but i do like your sweet wildflowers. :)
So pretty! I could never pull this off, but I appreciate the talent it takes to do it.
I may have to go check out those cups.
Beautiful and so summery looking too.
Great colour scheme love all those summer colours…
Love this setting and I am going to drop into Pier 1 here this week to see if they have those mugs here ~ I think I need a couple!
Thanks for sharing. :O) M
Barb I just pulled up the icon about this post – how gorgeous and fun!! I know the feeling of making a trip to the golf store with hubby and bringing home something for the house as well! :) Nicely arranged and so fun and summery. Hope you are enjoying using them this summer.
