Sunflowers on the Deck

While out shopping one day, I saw these adorable sunflower plates.  They  were on clearance, so I snapped them up.  I love yellow and blue together, such a lovely contrast.

Having lunch on our deck off the study is nice, because it is a beautiful day today.  We have a covered trellis for shade.


I layered the table with two different tablecloths.  I love my Bee plates from Horchow.  They go nicely with the sunflower plates.  The colorful goblets are from Novica...I actually won them from a blog giveaway.  The cobalt blue goblets are from the Dollar store.

 I am using the white charger from Pier 1 and the blue flatware is from Ross.

I combined a blue and a yellow napkin to tie in the colors.
You can see my other sunflower post here.


Here's a gorgeous set from buffyb at Polyvore with sunflowers.



Happy Monday everyone.  I will be joining the following blogs for their linky parties:

  9. Good Morning Linda, I love blue and yellow and it reminds me of the colours I saw in Italy. Sunflowers are the perfect flower and the sunflower design look so lovely on your plates. I cannot believe that your wine glasses cost only 1$ as they look so gorgeous. It must have been lovely to sit on your terrace, underneath the shade of your covered terrace to enjoy your lunch.
    Have a lovely day today.
    Best Wishes to you.

  10. Good morning beautiful Linda! WOWSA YOWSA I love sunflowers, and wherever they are placed, it's as if the whole room lights up with a smile. I think these flowers (I've always thought this since childhood) have PERSONALITIES.....they have faces that follow the sun and smile. The large variety that stand 6 feet tall always scared me as a kid because I thought they were "alive" - but now, their almost animated presence pleases me. What a great colour to use as our summer starts to wane and roll into the cooler days.

    Linda dear, thank you so much for coming to visit. It's been a great summer, and with only 20 days to go until I march into my classrooms to teach French, I'm milking every moment for what it's worth! Much love, Anita

  11. Hi Linda, Such a beautiful setting for lunch on your deck. Blue and yellow are so complimentary together and I have always loved the contrast. Your plates are charming and the goblets are perfect. I love sunflowers too. You created such a gorgeous Tuscan setting.
    Have a blessed day.
    Hugs

  18. I scrolled back up and looked 2 or 3 times, and I REALLY like the plaid overlay paired with the sunflower dishes! That's a really great look! The sunflowers are so pretty, and this time of year with so many summer flowers beginning to fade out, they really brighten up a table.

    I need to stop into that Ross store more often. I would have loved to have bought these plates! We live right near the Kansas (the Sunflower State) border, so these would have a lot of relevance as well as just look great!

    I'm glad you're enjoying nice weather there! Have a great week!

  22. Perfect combination! It's interesting to see several people doing sunflowers and they all look so different. I really like the blue and yellow - very rich looking. I also love your bee plates. This also makes me realize I need to get some colorful flatware. Nicely done!
