Brown table down

Using the brown leaf tablecloth turned out to be harder than I thought it would be. The blue napkins I found in my stash and the gray plates in my cupboard, so I was lulled into a false sense of complacency about the final outcome. I did search the limited shopping possibilities around me, hoping for accessories that would look great with the tablecloth ( I was especially looking for small glass fishing floats for a centerpiece...no luck ), but almost everything I brought home looked wrong in the end.

At Pier 1 I found some dishes that I thought would be great and I had the tablecloth with me when I saw them, but at home they were too yellow and too bright. Unless they look good with some other tablecloths I guess they'll have to go back. That said, I am pretty impressed with the cheap dishes available at Target and Pier 1. I'll have to re-think my view that dishes are too expensive to change easily. Of course, they are all poorly made in China, but the designs are nice.
