My niece had asked me to set a table for her monthly dinner group called Fancypants. What a great name!! They meet once a month – every second month is at a restaurant and the other month at a member’s home.
This month was C’s turn. She is living in my sister’s townhouse at the moment which sits right on the water so I felt a beachy look was the way to go. The dining table is white washed and beachy looking so that part was really easy.
I used her flatware and white china and added my soft blue napkins. The large blue bowl in the centre was hers but I added my white cake stand and topped it with candles. We layered the table – white cloth, taupe runner and woven mats that were all in her cupboard. I just added the jute around the candles and also the flatware.
I think the table looks just fabulous with the gorgeous wall print behind. Reports are they all had a great time.
I had so much fun setting this table – I would just love to do this for a living!!

How could they not have a great time when sitting at such a lovely table! Beautiful! Well done!
Thank you for posting this. It’s exactly what I was looking for!
Looks like the food would be the second treat of the evening. This table would have been the first.♥♫
Absolutely beautiful table. I love how you wrapped the candles with twine. Wonderful post.
I love the simplicity of use just white. It is so fresh and clean. Very pretty table! Visisting from CHS

Hi Suzy,
that table looks very fresh. It is a lovely setting with all nice details. Thank you for sharing it.
Best greetings, Johanna
This is super cool, Suzy! Literally! It looks refreshingly cool and breezy! I'm sure the FancyPants folks loved every detail!!! You CAN do this for a living, y'know. I'm teaching which allows me to do it, and I also work with occasional clients. I'll just bet one of the local colleges has a community education department that is in need of such an instructor!!!!! :-)
I love this! Love the use of twine and white dishes are always pretty.
What a beautiful table you created for your niece! Everything is just perfect.

What a honor for you to be asked to set the table and what a fabulous job you did! Perfect for the beach, I also like the beach print on the wall and your shells on the table.
I love the candle centerpiece and how the whole table has such a soft, serene look. Very pretty! Thanks for visiting my party. So sorry I'm late replying, but this has been a hectic week.
How wonderful to be with your family. I love being with our kids listening to them tell stories and laugh. Your table is beautiful and your dishes, and silverware...it is all beautiful. I liked the twine too...just perfect.
Blessings,
Debbie
