Very pretty settings except the wildflower tea because the napkin is underneath the plate which is wrong. A napkin is NEVER set underneath a plate. Please stop showing settings this way. It’s a disservice to your readers. All else looked creative and nice.
Wow. No need to be so harsh. But I have taken your point and will NEVER set a napkin under a plate!
