I also like packages in the mail from World Market.
I also like receiving packages in the mail ESPECIALLY after an exhausting day of being teacher/counselor/mommy/nutritionist/behavior specialist/etc. to 27 five and six year olds... Whew.
Anyway, to the goods!
New placemats in a beige/lighhhttt yellow color AND these adorable napkins! The pictures show yellow flowers, but there more of a deep yellow/orangish color.
And I KNOW the fabric looks like it should come off of an 1984 floral couch at a retirement home in Florida or something..
I knowwww, but they are FUN!
We are REALLY trying to bring more color into our home... it feels like we live in a white/brown/taupe/black box.. we need some oomph! We are using mostly blues, greens, golds, and yellows, but our master bedroom will get a hit of purple too. And of course we will still stick to the neutrals.
I played around with them on the table a bit: they look great with our already owned napkin rings (from Target, I believe):
I even played around with some table settings using dishes (and P.S. I am such a dork):
Funky/colorful plate (from Target) |
Colorful plate plus white salad plate |
My favorite combo, I think: use colorful plate as a "charger" and add white bowl (it is a bowl, promise) |
Go neutral and add a taupe plate |
Or have another colorful plate :) |
SO excited about this colorful addition to our dining area! And they were on c-l-e-a-r-a-n-c-e, which you know is my favorite word! However, now I'm thinking I want a new (colorful/bright) rug to go with these napkins (is that weird?)
Who else likes receiving packages in the mail?!
