52nd Tablescape - Mikasa Provencal Greenville

Fell in love with this set as soon as I saw it.  Got 18 pieces for $5.  It is a Mikasa set and is absolutely gorgeous.  Easy to add accent pieces to it..









 The large fluted glasses are a very heavy crystal - purchased them from a Craig's listing - $1 each.

51st Tablescape - Turquoise & White - Cavalier/Homer Laughlin

Busy first week of the year - didn't get a change to post my tablescape last week - so here it is finally. A beautiful set of Homer Laughlin's Eggshell Cavaler/China. This set is Turqoise and white with just a dash of orange! It is a beautiful delicately thin china!


The beautiful three tiered desert server was a Christmas present from my Mother-in-law.  It is so beautiful.
This china set I found at Habitat for Hummanity - the entire set was $5 - for 12 pieces.

These cute little tea towels I found at Hospice 2 for $1...


When I saw this set of glasses I knew they would be perfect fo this set.  I purchased them fro Jericho Ministries Thrift Store; 8 pieces for $5.
I placed them on goldish/white chargers and used a flowered silver set by Wms Rogers.
