Sapphire and Silver is a gorgeous color scheme.
It's not so much a scheme, though, because we're not incorporating it into other stuff. It's just my dress and shoes.
*I* am the color scheme. t majestic music plays in the background
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I was all about to be "You can't nuke Corelle?" Because I really want plain white Corelle dishes to supplement our current black and white stoneware, which I really love, but is a) heavy, and b) not great with the tile floors. And I need about another eight place settings for when we have to feed groups.
We have lots of printed mugs. People give us mugs. But then I like coffee, so hey.
And then the SO started collecting booze glasses on tour this last time. So we pitched the Walmart plastic glasses, but always look like lushes when we serve pop because it's all in booze branded glasses.

Get some saphire and silver balloons to tie around the ceremony outside. Festive, gorgeous, cheap.

Hmmm. The ceremony will be on the back patio, so we could tie balloons to the railings. And Party City is right by my hair salon, so I could pick up balloons after I get my hair done.

Sapphire colored toasting flutes for your first toast?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Corelle doesn't break easily, but it is hella fun to watch and listen to when it does. It just keeps splintering into tiny little shards... five minutes or so until it's all over.

You could put a silver lei on the elephant and really punch it up.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
My daily use stuff is Crate and Barrel--the Aspen dinnerware [link]
I'm not opposed to color, but I'd rather use table linens and napkins to provide it. My glassware is also clear.
I've got a ton of printed mugs that take up two shelves in a cabinet. My favorite is my Wonder Woman mug that my sister gave me.
Tea: The closest thing I have to white dishes is the china we registered for when we got married. The reason we ended up with that one was because I loved the accent plate so much.
That is the same pattern we registered for too. I think I've got 8 or 9 place settings out of the 12 I wanted. I may finish everything off some day, but who knows?
