This table design by David Beahm for the Lenox Hill Neighborhood House’s “Once Upon a Time gala” is so creative and fun.  The use of butterflies for the leaves creates a fairy tell setting perfect for the event.    The whimsical feel a long with orange tones is very warm and inviting; a perfect design for the upcoming fall.

I saw this fun tableware in a recent issue of Interior Design magazine, and I loved it as soon as I saw the monkey bowl.  Stefano Giovannoni and Rumiko Takeda’s OrienTales are bone china tableware for Taiwan’s National Palace Museum.  Each piece represents an Asian language or symbol.  The Banana Kid monkey is a sugar bowl, the Lily Bird holds soy sauce, the Lotus is a dessert bowl, the Goldfish is an eggcup, and the Paradise Bird is a milk pitcher.  Would be a great and fun way to get finicky kids to eat their meals.
