perch. sets a christmas table

Our shop is in an big old house with lots of rooms, and we love to style it as if you lived here. One room is filled with things for the dining room, and we have set the table for Christmas. We used lots of shades red mixed with turquoise, and we think it looks so pretty and fresh.

Let us show you what we used to get this fun and festive look.


Our inspiration is the lipstick red acrylic ballroom chair.

Red acrylic ballroom chair from. perch - 275.

We layered three plates starting with a classic gold charger. On top of that we placed a red Cadeaux dinner plate. It has a classic look, and would you believe it's high quality Melamine?

Cadeaux Melamine plate - 16.50

We placed a red banded vintage salad plate on top of the red Cadeaux plate. It's bone china from England, marked Aynsley in the Newport pattern.

Set of 11 vintage plates - 165.

On top of the vintage plate is a cute red Pansy bowl.

Small red pansy bowl - 17.50

Other things we added are etched glassware (10. - 12. per glass), and a set of Fleur de lis stainless flatware. We only have a set of six of this very special flatware, because it is a discontinued pattern. It is 72.50 for a place setting of five pieces. We also used Etal hand made beeswax candles. We always have these for holiday time, and they come in gold, silver, red, and this year we got black with gold fleur de lis, so perfect for Saints fans.

Etal taper candles - 20.

We also added a Beauville Christmas napkin, and a pretty guest soap wrapped in Crhistmas paper as a favor. And if you like reindeer, we have a very cute red serving tray with a reindeer on it.

Beauville Christmas napkin - 22.



Pretty guest soaps wrapped in Christmas paper - 14.



Red reindeer serving tray - 144.

The centerpiece is a sparkly red tree perched on a spectacular antique turquoise tureen.

We used a turquoise tureen for the centerpiece
