I am linking this post to Rhoda's Thrifty Treasures party, Stop by to see all the great treasures at Southern Hospitality.
I am joining Tabletop Thursday today. Stop over at BNOTP and see all the lovely tabletops.
The little white owl napkin rings are an old find from GW.
I played around today with all my ew pretties. I love Ironstone dishes. Imagine my surprise, when I spied a cardboard box at the GW filled with these lovelies. They are J & G Meakin, from England, the pattern is Sterling Renaissance. There were 24 pieces in perfect condition, not even a chip and they were $8.99 for all! Whoo hoo, made my day! Aren’t they lovely?
The flatware is from my vintage collection of silverplate flatware.
So much fun setting this up outside on the lanai.
The linens I used for this were found last week at the GW, the dishtowels are from Williams Sonoma and have never been used, well really all of it is new and has never been used. There are 4 placemats, 4 dishtowels, 2 fringed napkins (not sure what happened to the other 2). There was also a checkered tea towel also new. These were all $.79, $.99 a piece.

I love those dishes. I saw some in my local thrift but they had a huge price on them and I passed. I love this table you have set.
ReplyDeleteA very pretty table setting - Love the green and white together. I really need to get back to setting a pretty table. Right now everything is covered up with a laptop, jewelry supplies and paperwork!!:(

First, I was going to send out the calvary looking for you so I'm glad you are posting today. OK, now that I've got my Marla worry hat off and I might say, it's so much more fun to worry about you than myself, hee, hee.
ReplyDeleteI would die for those dishes. Seriously, stunning. LOVE them. LOVE them! The table is gorgeous.
I just love your tablescape. Your little owl napkin holders are adorable. Thanks so much for sharing and I am a new follower. Hope you have a chance to come say hi.

ReplyDeleteLove the color palate and the dishes!
ReplyDeleteNo that Goodwill by the Classy Flea isn't good. It used to be and then it just went down hill. But the Classy Flea is great isn't it! That's where I'm going Mother's Day to go shopping (I found my china cabinet there for Mother' Day many years ago).
