I mix my expensive stuff with my bargains. It insures that the bargains look as good as the expensive stuff. The napkin rings are from Walgreen's. I purchased them about 10 years ago.
Yet another truth about me.... I don't get rid of much. : )

The little lanterns are from Hallmark. They were on sale the day before Thanksgiving about 5 years ago.
This tablescape would be great for Thanksgiving. I will probably go to the Godiva Chocolate Store and buy little foil wrapped chocolate turkey's and put them at each place setting.
Very pretty. Can't tell what the bargains were. :) It's all so welcoming.
ReplyDeleteYou have a lovely collection and it is great to pull it all together! isn't it fun to create!
ReplyDeleteIf your serving Godiva save me a seat! Your lemon slices are just perfect! I too love to find bargains-and you can mix them with the expensive stuff. It always makes me laugh when people ask where I got something and they are assured it is something expensive and I tell them, "oh, the dollar tree!" LOL
