Silverware Pouches

Silverware pouches, also known as silverware holders or cutlery pouches, are practical and decorative accessories used for storing and presenting silverware or cutlery sets. They are commonly used for special occasions, such as formal dinners, weddings, or holiday gatherings, where a more elegant silverware presentation is desired.

Silverware pouches are also a fabulous way to elevate your everyday table settings too. Here are some key points to consider when it comes to silverware pouches:

  • Purpose: Silverware pouches serve two main purposes. Firstly, they help keep the silverware organized and protected, preventing scratches and damage. Secondly, they add a touch of sophistication and style to the table setting, enhancing the overall dining experience.
  • Materials: Silverware pouches are typically made from fabric or a combination of fabric and other materials. Common fabric choices include burlap, velvet, silk, or linen. To add elegance, the fabric is often adorned with decorative elements like embroidery, lace, or embellishments.
  • Design and Size: Silverware pouches come in various designs and sizes to accommodate different types and quantities of silverware. Depending on personal preference and occasion, they can be simple, understated, or intricately designed. Some pouches have individual compartments for each utensil, while others have a more open design to hold the entire set.
  • Customization: Silverware pouches can be customized to match an event’s theme or color scheme. They can be personalized with monograms, initials, or embroidered designs, making them unique and meaningful keepsakes.

Cocktail Collection

Today, I am going to set our table for a lady’s brunch with Cutlery Couture’s boutique Cocktail Collection, changing the way we set the everyday table.

Ladies’ Brunch Table Setting

Today, I set the table for a small lady’s brunch at our Home in Coastal Maine using:

  • Mixed blue and green thrifted dish patterns
  • Antique pewter goblets and candlesticks from my mother’s collected pewter collection
  • Thrifted blue glassware
  • Beaumont Pottery lobster butter bowls
  • Spring Hyacinth flowers in a thrifted McCoy vase
  • Macrame placemats

Cutlery Couture’s boutique Cocktail Collection silverware pouches are ideal to elevate our ladies’ brunch table.

Oh, and I picked up these vintage Sherbert bowls at a barn sale a couple of weeks ago, which I also added to our ladies’ brunch table.

In case you missed it, check out the Spring Thrifty and Things post to see more of this month’s thrifted finds and how I used them in my decor.

A Story of Kindness and Gratitude

With everything happening in our world today, I thought you might enjoy this story of kindness.

Last summer a local second-hand shop, The Fabulous Find shared a set of Beaumont Pottery lobster butter bowls on their Facebook page and I ran right over to snag them. I thought they would be so cute at our Home in Maine for our summer lobster dinners.

But they were gone by the time I arrived…

A few weeks later, one of my fabulous followers here (thank you again!) saw the same set at another antique store in New Hampshire, and she bought them for me. We both concluded that someone must have scooped them up to resell, as you don’t see these every day…

We met up at Stonewall Kitchen for the handoff, and I absolutely adore them. I think of her every time I use them, and I am so grateful for the thoughtfulness and generosity.

I hadn’t seen or thought of Beaumont Pottery in years. It used to be made locally in York, Maine, and my parents used to sell it at their gift shop at the Nubble. Learn more in the Coastal Maine Heritage | Embracing My Roots post.

I remember having many of their pieces at our home growing up. So, these lobster butter bowls are so special to have today.

Ladies’ Table Centerpiece

Let’s talk about the centerpiece.

I found this vintage yellow McCoy pitcher for $15 at a barn sale in Rupert, Vermont. I shared all about it in the post Spring Thrifty and Things.

The color screams spring and matches the table’s silverware pouches so quaintly.

I accented the yellow McCoy with purple hyacinth and orange tulips. Simple and and colorful for spring.

I also had a few floppy orange tulips hanging around, so I combined them with the purple Hyacinth for a second spring flower arrangement at the end of the table.

It felt so nice on this dreary rainy day in Maine.
