I have slept since we discussed this and we all know I suffer from CRS !  I
was just trying to have a unity of decorations.

I agree with you that this would be beautiful, but there are a lot  of us
that don't have chargers of any color and white plates, or any solid color
( myself included ).  At my last look, gold chargers were about 5 to 6
dollars each and a white plate is about a minimum of $1.99.  For me that
would be only an expense of 8 to 10 dollars but the families that have
children (3) you are looking at $40 just for dinner ware.

That is great for a centerpiece but we still need more light for one of
those long tables.
