Playful spirit?

4 years ago

This does not look ”summer home” to me, unless your summer home is The Breakers. Maybe it’s the chairs that look like British Colonial folding camp chairs? The woven reed placemats and no damask tablecloth (gasp) under the gold flatware? Why is Ralph Lauren showing up in my FB feed? They are pretty dishes, though.

Pretty, but would've been more "playful" on THIS dinnerware. ;-)

For us, placemats have to be wipeable or washable!
