@magicmoodz Don't be hard on yourself. Many days we are eating in the recliner or sofa, with a plate, bowl or take out box. 😉. I love a pretty table, but just not our lifestyle except for some holidays a few times a year. We don't entertain like years ago.

@Oznell Absolutely beautiful. I love shades of pinks and greens.

Thank you for this excellent post.

OMG, I must be in the minority here. Pink overload! I like a touch of pink, especially when mixed with a soft green, but that's way too much for me. I suspect Barbie would love it though.

@Venezia

You're not alone. It's too much pink for me too.

@on the bay, how fantastic that you have a daughter who enjoys continuing the tradition, and using the family's lovely things!

Even though there are not as many these days who enjoy and conserve the past, there are definitely *some* who do, and there always will be some, I believe.

"Romantic"--- @Puzzle Piece , exactly, that's the precise word I'd use for the table setting.

Regarding the proliferation of pink in this one. Clearly, they used it lavishly since it is a favored color of the hostess Dody. I was thinking though, that those fab pink dessert plates could go in some interesting directions. You could combine them with chocolate linen napkins in a more casual setting. They'd be great with moss green, navy accessories. So many dramatic possibilities...

Thank you @Oznell, each place setting is absolutely charming and those colors are my favorite!

It's nice and all but I'm a far more casual type of person and this is just a little too frou frou for me. I also am not a pink lover so I'd choose a different color scheme even if I wasn't so casual.
