Tablescapes from Thrifty purchases

64TH Tablescape - Blue Orchid -

Received these beautiful blue orchids from my husband for easter - so the next tablescape had to center around them. 




The plates are Folkart - not a fancy brand are rare find - but they were so pretty.  20 pieces from Key Training Thrift store - $5.
The silverware is a stainless steel set - love the long dinner fork...found them at hospice 50 pieces $8.
These glasses are very heavy and have embedded leaves on them -
These candel holders remind me of tulips...

Found this large serving platter a few years ago - I comes in handy when we serve large groups (which we do quite often).  The colors were perfect for this table - so I set it at one end.

As always - thanks to Susan at BNOTP for sponsoring Tablescape Thursdays. Remember: "Around the world - - life is best around the table". Thanks for visiting; please leave some encouraging words!

  1. I adore your dining table! My daughter Alexandra would love it, she's kind of retro and very eclectic and artistic. Love the dishes too!
