Dinner for Six and Fun Friends

We are staying inside and inviting close friends over for an evening dinner. Come join us!




The table is set for the evening with a bit of glitz.  Fine China placed on top of shiny gold charges and sparkling stemware set the tone for the evening. 




Why not set the table and make it sparkle? Bring it on, a beautiful table and fun with friends! 






The stemware is Sparkle by Waterford Crystal. Our friends will appreciate this elegant table. 




In the center of each plate is an iridescent sherbet glass that belonged to my grandmother. I don't use these very often, but this dinner is the perfect time. 



 

I'm keeping the centerpiece for the table low since there will be lots of talking and laughter across the table.  The three small trees and white deer were a Christmas gift from my daughter. 




The tablecloth is white brocade. 







Other pieces of special stemware on the table are two Candlewick goblets that my dad gave my mom in the 1960's. 





Because there are only two of these Candlewick goblets, I placed one at each end of the table setting.




Do you have special pieces of stemware or china that have a special meaning or tell a story? 



Crystal napkins rings compliment the stemware. 



Coffee will be served from the sideboard. 





Spending time with loved ones and friends can bring such joy! 









I hope you have enjoyed visiting my table for six. I would love to hear what you think - Judy.

    Hi Judy! Your table is just gorgeous! I love the sparkly look of everything. Those candlewick goblets are so pretty. I have 7 candlewick ice tea glasses from a dear aunt who passed away and also some candlesticks. I would love to find some more pieces. I don't think I've ever seen the goblets before! Everything is so lovely.
    Be a sweetie,
    Shelia ;)

    Your tablescape is stunning. Best idea to stay inside with friends. It is too cold in Kentucky, right now. Thanks for linking up.

    Judy - simple, yet elegant and classy! I have some red wine glasses, a gift from one of our former au pairs, which are special to us. And some stemless wine glasses with a moose motif that were a retirement gift from my brother and his wife. Precious! Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday!
