Table Linen advice

So, you girls know I put the bird china on my registry. I originally also registered for nice table linens at William Sonoma (napkins, tablecloth, the whole shabang) but it is a print. It will look lovely w/my every day dishes, but what can I register for that will match these? I am registered at BBB, William Sonoma and Kohls

Here's the china again. What color/type of table cloth & napkins do you think would match this?

usually i like to bring out the less dominant colors so i would do a deep red

I would either do stark white with a plain white pattern in it, or pick a subtle color in the print of your plate to make it pop. I.E. the soft pinks, brown, green etc...

i actually like a goldish, or taupe color with blue or brown...You have that color on the bird so it will compliment that. But thats just me

I think a rich chocolate brown tablecloth would look beautious!!

Hm, maybe a deep red for the holidays (red was my first instinct too) and a taupe-y brown for other times of the year? What about taupe table cloth, red napkins? Too much?

I know, I might have to do that, b/c in person the colors might be slightly different...

I would love to see a deep red or burgandy with gold napkins!

Re: Table Linen advice

Maybe with the Taupe TC you could sage green napkins? You have so many nice colors going on in your plates, you can basically do anything and it will looks great!

I saw those plates in macy's when we were registering and i fell in love. FH wasn't too keen eating off a plate with a bird on it

Re: Table Linen advice

There are so many beautiful colors in this pattern!

You made such a good choice!

FH doesn't even know I registered for them! I love them... FH only notices the food on the plate, not the actual plate

I think a goldish color would work really well, since the top of the bird is almost a golden color. I think that is the best color in that pattern that will work with the white AND the blue rim.

Ooo I like that. I think maybe even the bronze would work... b/c it would contrast nicely w/the blue rim, like kristina said.
