Ralph Lauren at the Sooper Dooper

I just love the mix of old and new!  The old gives the new some street cred and the new makes the old shine a little more.  So this week our table pairs Lauren by Ralph Lauren and Mom's supermarket china she got at the Sooper Dooper.


Both patterns share a silver band and the blue flowers really soften the Lauren china, appropriately called Chain Bracelet!



A touch of blue with the candles and napkins brings everything together.




This centerpiece was made by Mom with a bunch of dollar store glass vases tied together with a ribbon.  Looks modern but the ribbon keeps it from being too contemporary.




Here's the Chain Bracelet setting alone without the supermarket pieces.  Love it!!







Don't forget - Happy Hour Wednesdays at Henrietta's House.  We'll feature favorite drinks, barware and settings!!

    Nice job! Awesome new china and love that you are using mom's Souper Douper China. I also like the way you tied little vases together to create a chain vase. ~CJ

    This is a gorgeous table. The mix of the old and new china is definitely a win / win. Your mom's pattern is lovely and adds a sweet, delicate touch. The Lauren is sophisticated. Lovely combo. ~ Sarah

    What a pretty mixture -- I have that "supermarket" china as well. Love the way you've put this together.

    Oh, I love this table! What a great idea to mix the two china patterns -- they look wonderful together! I also love the gorgeous tablecloth. And my centerpiece this week is very similar to yours -- the ribbon is a great idea, though!
