Today’s tablescape came to mind because our friends at Mottahedeh featured this detail shot on their instagram page today. I styled this place setting in May of this year in preparation for our Christmas in July features for ShopKSW.com. Our popular wipe-clean placemats in green made a great base for our Sacred Bird and Butterfly…
