Thanks so much! Wish I could get the Verona blue chargers here in Germany. Our second home is 25 minutes from the Villeroy & Boch factory and they do not stock them.
I too was thrilled to see Classic Blue as the 2020 Pantone Color of the year. I am enjoying it immensely. Thank you for presenting so many options to consider when setting a table scape using blue. I loved each one.
Great idea!! Blue Willow lends itself to so many color combinations. I remember being in the Baldwin Brass showroom at Dallas Market in the 90's. Great product.
Hi Mary Beth just stopping by to check out your blue table setting ideas! Love the combinations you see and the options that you show to inspire people to do their own fine table!😊❤
Angela, I appreciate your kind words! Thanks for viewing my channel. More table settings coming along with a glimpse into my vintage tea cup collection. ☕️
LMB…. I’m on the look out for tortoiseshell stemware now, it’s perfect with blue and rattan… very Indochine and Colonial feel. Thank you for elevating our style again.
Mariposa made tortoise shell glasses in their Vidrio collection. Sadly, they only made these a few years. Hope you find some to add to your stemware collection. Keep me posted!
Good morning and warm hello's from Southern California. I'm a new subscriber, and I'm just loving your videos. Thank you for all the usuful information and the great ideas. We should all go back to having fancy decorated tables.
@@LadyMaryBeth I also was wondering how you store your china. Perhaps it’s time for an addition to your home, or reworking an existing space no longer used as it once was? I enjoyed this SO much, as I do all your videos. In particular the joy of creating and laying a beautiful table. I have been interested in this all my life but I have learned more in the time I’ve been watching your videos than I ever was aware of. I lamented (to some extent) when young people began refusing to accept inherited china and crystal because it signified the loss of something wonderful in all our lives. I appreciate dressing nicely, and having beautiful things in the home. You are an inspiration! 😊
Chargers also help protect tables from heat transfer that can damage the finish on the table. They are like coasters and place mats, an extra layer of protection.
Noticing that you are quite partial to the V Bogh chargers. and they are very beautiful. Yet, even on sale they run $40 apiece which is pricey. What do you suggest for a beginner on chargers? would you recommend that I invest in one basic V Bogh to go with everything or is there another company less pricey but just as elegant that you would recommend? Respectfully, Mary Dray
The Verona glass chargers from Villeroy & Boch are indeed expensive. I peek into Macy’s online to watch the sale prices. Got them for $24 each, with the gold and silver sparkle a bit higher. They are this low several times a year. Basic plastic chargers are affordable at Bed, Bath & Beyond and Hobby Lobby. So many options!
Just saw our favorite chargers for a deal on Wayfair. www.wayfair.com/Villeroy-and-Boch--Verona-13.5-Charger-35204900-L7327-K~VWB1131.html?refid=GX444236640685-VWB1131_14825588&device=m&ptid=814909337170&network=g&targetid=aud-871923107667:pla-814909337170&channel=GooglePLA&ireid=81637264&fdid=1817&PiID%5B%5D=14825588&gclid=Cj0KCQjwse-DBhC7ARIsAI8YcWJRsBsqUsXFtuJVPkm46LjzBAlQ1q1gdlDtl-fVlWP2fCdia1OX8TAaAl9fEALw_wcB
Oh Mary Beth! Just ordered 8 V-B chargers in green! Gave it much thought-had to go with green😂 It was either green or clear. Green will go with Christmas, Easter & Tea parties. So grateful for your sale alert! Would love to see a Tea held in Germany! Respectfully, Mary Dray ps: We just had our 25th Anniversary this last Dec (yet, was a second marriage for both, we’re older😉) Also enjoyed seeing your exquisite wedding photos.
@@marydray6171 Thrilled that you chose the green chargers! 💚💚💚 Truly a versatile color that will go with many seasons and occasions. Happy 25th Anniversary! Celebrate in special ways all year long. 🤍🤍🤍
Setting my table, I am under the impression you choose tablecloth or charger, but not both. It's what I learned years ago in HomeEc. (Showing my age! LOL) Have things changed?
As long as it pleases, I say anything goes with tabletop. Chargers help catch any spills that would otherwise stain the tablecloth. It’s a plus for sure.
The midnight blue dress is striking on you, so elegant. You look absolutely radiant. Perfect with your beautiful table settings. Love the blues.
I appreciate your kind comment. Classic blue is good for the soul. 💙
The Wedgwood Hibiscus pattern is absolutely gorgeous!
I watched this many times. I love how to use the charger now. Wonderful idea and pretty too!
Thanks so much! Wish I could get the Verona blue chargers here in Germany. Our second home is 25 minutes from the Villeroy & Boch factory and they do not stock them.
Beautiful looks the napkins really give the setting a pop.
Can't get enough of the blue. We were at a dinner party yesterday with soothing shades of blue and white. It was lovely.
I just watched this again. There is so much to learn and these setting are beautiful. Every time I see it is really pretty
Your table settings are amazing! You are so inspiring.❤️
I appreciate you! We are at our home in Germany now and I have been setting lots of tables. 😉

My favourite colour too - blue and white is timeless♡
Can’t get enough of this soothing color combination. Will feature Delft in a future segment. 💙🤍
Love the table settings in navy blue. Great combinations!
Such beautiful table settings. I preferred the solid blue napkins btw. I will take some ideas from you. Greetings from Spain.
Thanks for the kind words. Yes, solid blue is classic. 💙 Great to hear from you in Spain. All the best from Texas! 😘
I never knew blue could be so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. ♥️
💙💙💙
I love the blue and white! I'll have to find some little bags for table favors - I love that idea!
Table favors are nice surprises when dining out, too. 💙🤍
Thank you for teaching lady marybeth love
My mom’s absolute favorite color and mine too! I love all the different styles and variations of “fanciness!” Thanks for sharing!!💙💙💙
I love to use Baldwin Brass candlesticks and burgundy with my antique Blue Willow - so pretty! Hmm...so is pale yellow...and sage green...
Great idea!! Blue Willow lends itself to so many color combinations. I remember being in the Baldwin Brass showroom at Dallas Market in the 90's. Great product.
So much inspiration! You saved the best for last!
Glad you are watching the blue table designs.
Beautiful blue place settings. Love! 💙

Mary Beth...how many patterns did you receive as a bride..
I chose Villeroy & Boch for my German registry and two Wedgwood patterns for my bridal registry in Houston.
I want a tour of your china cabinet
My cabinets are overflowing. I seriously need a China Room.
