The Art of Mixing: New and Old

I am loving this traditional Eddie Ross tablescape.
I believe in mixing. Old and New. High and Low.

Monogram China: New but old. You can never go wrong with classic. Worth the investment.
Cobalt Blue glasses: Old and affordable. These are from Etsy but you could score a super cheap set from your local flea market or estate sale.
Crate and Barrel Wine glasses: They add a modern edge to a traditional table.
Target Tablecloth: Cheap. A good linen is hard to find.
Milk Glass Goblets: Another flea market find that can make a table scape.
David Hicks Napkins: Get a fun fabric transformed into some napkins. This adds more modern to the traditional table.
