Since I am still at my Mom's house in Houston and away from all my tablescaping goodies I decided this week to share a table I set last June with you!
My Mom is improving every day and I'm hoping to be back home in Ga in a few weeks!
I am a thrifty junker! I love to set a pretty table also but don't want to spend a lot. Most of my tables are bits and pieces picked up in thrift shops, yard sales and deeply clearanced retail items.
Summer morning breakfast for two!
Inspired by the denim table runner embroidered with dragonflies. I found it 1/2 price in a Texas thrift store last year and it was .50
I used white place mats ($1 ea at dollar tree) and added the pretty blue Fiesta plates that were .75 ea at Goodwill
The clear candlewick plates were a huge bargain at $1 ea at a little thrift shop we found last year on a trip to the Mountains. The flatware is some I've had forever.
I choose the pretty napkins .25 ea to add some pink to the tablescape and used pink bird napkin rings bought last year on clearance at Hobby Lobby 4/$1
We Southerners love our Grits so I added this pink Hall ramekin $1 ea
This butterfly plate was .25 at a yard sale and adds another touch of pink. The tomato server was a giveaway I won.
Breakfast tea served in this Fiesta teapot
(the most expensive thing on this table at $10)
along with a vintage pink sugar & creamer that cost $1 each

I used pink teacups and Boopie juice glasses that cost .49 ea
So that's my thrifty tablescape. My grand total was $22.25 with $10 of that being for the Fiesta Teapot
I'm joining Cuisine Kathleen for Let's Dish
I hate to miss a good party!
Toujours,
Linda
