More Placemat Fun

If you missed last weeks posting, I am having loads of fun with a set of double sided placemats.  I'm mixing and matching and even repurposing.  Here's some of what I started with.

Last week, I turned three placemats into a runner.  This week I'm flipping it over and recreating a whole new table!

The flip side of the flowered mats features a colorful, almost camouflage print.  Orange still predominates but this print also includes charcoal grey...and I love grey!

I really think I prefer this "B" side.  How about you?

I've wanted these deep orange grass placemats from Crate & Barrel all season long.  This table was the perfect reason to snap them up.

Naturally, I chose my Hayes grey dinnerware, also from the Crate.  Crisp white napkins brighten things up a bit.

The greenish tint of these recycled wine goblets and water glasses picks up the aqua in the runner.  A lucky find from a recent trip to IKEA were these candle jars...

the perfect orange...and $1.99!!  To bring some height to the tablescape, I borrowed this really versatile candleholder from my friend.  Thanks, Sharon.  Please tell me I can borrow this again and again.

For a final touch, I wove this paper flower garland from Ten Thousand Villages down the center of the table.

I thought it would be fun to see the two scapes side-by-side.  Do you have a favorite?  Stay tuned...next the same placemats will reappear as placemats, (fancy that!) for two more table settings.
