Ethiopian-Pearl-Inspired Tabletop

“The departure point for my color scheme was black and white stripes,” Meredith says. “I've been having a love affair with La Tavola linens since I was 27 and living in Atlanta.” The black-and-white tablecloth was draped with a light pink runner and topped with lush florals and gold china and glassware. The tabletop decor took inspiration from the hues in Ethiopian opals, which Meredith incorporated into her hairpiece and jewelry. “From hot pink and peach to pale baby pink, the table featured different shades, so the result was soft and not harsh.”
