Well, I didn't mean to take such a long blogging break - but I hope you missed me and my tables!
I will be sharing this with
Tabletop Tuesday at A Stoll Thru Life
Let's Dish at Cuisine Kathleen
Tablescape Thursday at Between Naps on the Porch
My inspiration was the magnolia tree in my yard. This blossom just begged to come and be my centerpiece.
I put the bloom in a green vase on a green ruffled charger and decided that Mikasa Modern Butterfly on green ruffled chargers would complement the magnolia.
I added stemware and flatware and a small topiary place card holder.
If you notice the host and hostess, seated at the ends of the table are only having soup! That's because I only have 4 place settings of this china! Someday I will get more!!!
I was rather pleased with the table based on Magnolias and Butterflies.

Wow! That Mikasa pattern looks stunning on the green ruffled chargers! And the topiary placecard holders are SO darling! Great table to show off the gardenia and its greenery!
What a pretty table and I do adore Magnolia blossoms - fabulous inspiration!!
Welcome back! I can smell those flowers from here!
The china is gorgeous!
Thanks for linking to Let's Dish!
Those are the freshest real magnolias I've seen on a table. They smell so lovely and are beautiful but usually hard to reach and be able to use. Your table is very pretty.
You are SO, SO lucky to have those beautiful magnolias right outside your door!!!!! The one you picked is picture perfect, and I just love the way it stands out to prominently on your table! Great choice on the accompaniments!!! The topiary place card holders are just too, too cute!!!
I am so glad that you shared your gorgeous magnolias with us...such a regal flower. The Mikasa Modern Butterfly is a wonderful pattern for your table, and I really like it with the green charger. Thanks for inviting us for a peak. Cherry Kay
