Happy Wednesday! I’m at the table, embracing the January Blues!
My Monday Morning Blooms arrangement with hydrangeas and tulips migrated to this blue and white ginger jar as a centerpiece for the table.
I’m also embracing Classic Blue, Pantone Color of the Year. The Pantone Color Institute forecasts global color trends, and chose Classic Blue for 2020:
A timeless and enduring blue hue, PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue is elegant in its simplicity. Suggestive of the sky at dusk, the reassuring qualities of the thought-provoking Classic Blue highlight our desire for a dependable and stable foundation on which to build as we cross the threshold into a new era.

I loved all the Chinese New Year info Mary, thank you! You have totally embraced the color of the year, the plates are gorgeous and I love the napkin rings too…so many pretties and your centerpiece is just perfect! We recently found some delicious frozen Orange Chicken, the brand is InnovAsian, it’s really good!

This gives me such inspiration! Blue is my favorite color. I’ve never cooked Asian cuisine but your recipes tempt me.
Happy New Year!
Mary, The beautiful blue tablescape is so inviting. I especially like the sauce bowls. It’s the perfect blue tone. You always incorporate interesting details which makes your posts such an enjoyable read! Have a great day! Clara ❤️
Gorgeous -all of it!
Absolutely love the chopsticks and homage to the Lunar New Year! I could eat dumplings for days!
Well, then, Happy Chinese New Year ! Beautiful blue, love how the reflection of your pretty blue goblets cast the perfect shadow on your pretty tablecloth. Love the color of blue at dusk. We had homemade sweet and sour chicken last week and it turned out well. I guess I was a bit early, ha. Love me some good Chinese food! Enjoy! Thanks Mary. P.s. getting out all the ingredients now for Peter Rabbit’s Carrot and Zucchini Muffins, errands in town yesterday and got back to late, but today is the day! YUM!
Beautiful table. I have long loved blue and white textiles & dishes and remember having that Ralph Lauren pattern in sheets that were buttery soft yet crisp & cool 100% cotton percale. The best to sleep on! I even made window treatments in that pattern. Love!
Beautiful Table! 💙
And those recipes look delightful!
Love your lunar new year table! Having it in blue makes it just about perfect!
So beautiful. Love the table settings and recipes for Chinese New Year. Especially enjoyed the addition of the fortune cookie fortune!! Thank you for brightening up my afternoon Jane!!
Meant to write ‘Mary’ (sorry!). Please change for me, thank you!!
