Lunch for two

I recently found this beautiful old tablecloth at a garage sale for $10. It is hand made and just beautiful though very grubby when I bought it. I soaked it for a week before the stains were gone. It is in perfect condition and a lovely aged creamy colour.

Today I used it to set my lunch table for two. I used my vintage dinner plates with some pretty floral side plates.  This old looking flatware I puchased recently at Target. 

The deep purple plate in the centre seems to bring out the colour of the flowers on the plate.

My cute purple teapot seemed to fit in just right - I have it sitting on a very old sandwich plate which belonged to my nan.

These beautiful salt and pepper shakers also belonged to my nan - my aunt had them but kindly thought they would look better in my home - how nice was that! You can see just how old they are by the chips around the bottom edge but to me they are gorgeous.

Finally I thought the table needed a bit of bling (let's face it, a bit of bing works anywhere!) so I added this candle with the pretty surround to finish things off. I purchased two of these a couple of years ago at a Christmas shop.

Hope you enjoyed my little purple table today!!
