A Little Flair



Sharing A Table Set With Flair




The Posey girls took my 

basic black and white and kicked it up a notch.




Silver Chairs 

Dressed in Black Ostrich Feathers




Plumes of Gorgeous 

White Ostrich Feathers Overhead




They started with this 

very contemporary low vase.




To which they added a tall 

cylinder filled with white orchids.




Then topped it off with plumes 

of white ostrich feathers and more white orchids.





A sheer topper, with black velvet design, 

over a simple white cloth offered a bit of drama.

Plates in Classic Black

Courtly Check Chargers

Ruffled Woven Place Mats

Black Linen Napkins

With a Speciality Cookie 




The Wedding Cake Cookies

Tutorials, Tips, and Tidbits @ Stone Gable

Individually wrapped speciality cookies

at each place setting are the perfect favor.




Change the cookie shape 

and this table setting 

could be for any occasion.




A Complete Table in 

Black and White

With Just a Hint of 

Hot Pink

The summer we married, my husband was in graduate school, and I was employed as a teacher. We took a portion of our savings that summer and purchased a sailboat. We christened our Catalina 22, “Hyacinths For The Soul” after Saadi’s poem. Our "Hyacinths" provided years of pleasure.

    So glamorous! Love the orchids in the vase, the ostrich feathers and the colour scheme! The different shaped cookies do make a perfect favour. I tried to find a link to the Posey girls on your post - did I miss it?

    Sarah, this is definitely a table with flair and a wow factor! I recently saw a table on Pinterest, I think that had a similar vase with feathers and could not believe my eyes - could be the same one. Thanks for sharing this - I love black and white!

    Don't you just love the different textures that nature has to offer us? We can use these elements in whatever scape we choose. Whether it is written poetry, musical notes or home décor, taking a lone object and arranging it with LOVE gives it a second life.....
