Thanks to the wonderful Susan @ Between Naps On The Porch for hosting this wonderful Tablescape Thursday meme. This is the day we get to play with our dishes. Be sure to check out her blog and see what all everyone has created.
I've put together a tablescape with a lot of my GW finds. Love it when I can find a bargain.
I cheated a little for the centerpiece and borrowed the vignette off of my kitchen island.
The jar I found at Ross for $7.99, the pitcher was my mom's.
The faux grapes and fruit are from the GW and I placed them on a pottery planter saucer from the yard.
A look at the tablesetting. The orange bowls came from Walmart, I really like the leaf shape.
The salad plates came from GW. They say 222 on the back. I havn't seen that before, but I loved the colors.
The yellow dinner plates are also from GW.
The chargers came from Pier 1 about 15 yrs. ago, and the placemats are yellow and green strips from GW.
Yellow window pane napkins from GW. The flatware is from Horchow on sale.
Tortise coasters that match the chargers are being used for the candles I found at the Dollar Tree.
The green wine glass I've had for years, the clear goblets came from the Dollar Tree. I thought it all made an old world look with my mom's pottery pitcher, and my jar with the sunflowers. I am really enjoying the old world look for a change.
Thanks so much for stopping by, I really look forward to your visits.

Beautiful table as always!! I so love that flatware! I've been looking for some vintage bakelite or something similar. Love these colors also. I also wish we had a Goodwill close. The only options here are over-priced antique shops.
ReplyDeleteMarty this is just stunning! Love the vibrant colors and gorgeous flatware. Beautiful job. :)
ReplyDeleteWith a pumpkin colored tablecloth added, this would make a wonderful Thanksgiving table.
ReplyDeleteHi Marty! What a pretty tablescape! I LOVE those salad plates...so unusual! And I can't believe the wonderful assortment of GW finds...lovely! I hope you are having a great day!...hugs...Debbie
ReplyDeleteA beautiful table, Marty.
ReplyDeleteI love those chargers!
Great tablescape and I always love a great GW find! I have some 222 dishes that I got from TJMaxx a while back.
ReplyDeleteBlessings!

Hi Marty,
ReplyDeleteThat table is very tuscan looking, so fitting for an italian dinner. I love your silverware from Horchow, I've always loved that style.......so old world. Great job.
Hugs,
Meri
You are such an inspiration. Makes me want to set out my dishes and enjoy them everyday. You have such good ideas and love how you break it down picture by picture so that I can really "get" what you did. What is Horchow and how do we get in touch with them for the silverware? It is all beautiful. Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteJuly Blessings to you, Marty!
ReplyDeleteLove your finds from GW. I just can't help myself...my heart starts beating a little faster when I find a treasure at a thrift shop. Awesome!
Enjoyed seeing your pretty tablescape and glad you have shared.
Hope you'll drop by my place and take a peek at my table.
God bless and may you continue to find lots of treasures,

Thanks for stopping by! Your tablescape party looks like fun! If I ever finish my dining room redo I'll jump into the next one...
ReplyDeleteHi sweet lady...
ReplyDeleteOooh...yet another fabulous table created by you! Such a beautiful, summery looking table, my friend! I love the warm browns, yellow and greens together! Hehe...I thought your centerpiece looked familiar...I love it! It really is sooo pretty and very "Old World" looking! It makes the perfect table centerpiece! Marty, you always find the prettiest things at GW! I love those salad plates...really pretty! I have seen and heard of the "222" dishware. They make alot of really pretty dish patterns! Ohhh...and everytime you use your leather/rattan chargers I just ooooh and aaaah...I love them!!! Thank you for sharing your gorgeous table with us, my friend! This was such a treat!!!
Love ya,
Chari
Very pretty Marty! I love the chargers and little leaf bowls!
ReplyDeleteMarty, another pretty tablescape. I love the flowered plates and the yellow ones that you were lucky to find. What great flatware. Love that design.
ReplyDeleteVery, very pretty Marty. You always have the prettiest accessories and dishes to make your tables shine with style! :) Love the fruit too.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your visit to my blog. I'm sorry I haven't been by in awhile. Between my very old, slow computer and the fact that my mother fell and broke her hip(I've been with her a lot) I have been sparse around blogland.
Come see me again!

Very nice--gives me a feel of Tuscany!
ReplyDeleteMarty it is amazing how you found all these pieces at different times and different places and pulled it all together into a lovely tablescape, You are a natural at this,Miss Marty,Kathysue
ReplyDeleteYou cheated!? It looks wonderful. My favorite things are the chargers and the silverware. One of these days you're going to have to feature some great linens so you can link up with Fabric Fun Thursday ;).
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, Marty! I am really taken with your flatware. I love the handles.
ReplyDeleteThis tablescape reminds me of Autumn Marty...very pretty indeed.
ReplyDeleteWarmest Hugs,
Sandi @ Bearly Sane
Very nice, Marty. I was just in the city today and stopped at Goodwill--and walked out empty handed :-( You are so fortunate to live near a good one!
ReplyDeleteI love it when a pretty table is mostly thrifted, therefore no bank was broken! My favorite?...the soft yellow plates.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great pitcher! I have been looking for stoneware like that, but it is really hard to find anymore-particularly in AZ. Beautiful, and I love the fall colors.
ReplyDeleteYou are always setting an amazing table. It is gorgeous and fabulously frugal! I am going to branch out to your Goodwill, the one near me is always a disappointment!
ReplyDeleteI love all the textures and colors Marty! And those chargers are so unique! Sunflowers make such a cheery table and that flatware is gorgeous! You are such a good GW shopper and find the best things!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Cindy
Marty-you've set a lovely table-as usual. It's always great to find things that others no longer need or want. Your table reminds me of late summer here in the mountains of Colorado!
ReplyDeletePretty, pretty, love the cute bowls!
ReplyDeleteHugs

How wonderful you added your Mom's pitcher. Using items that once belonged to family members is one of my favorite things!
ReplyDeleteI love that colorful plate and your flatware is so pretty. It looks like it has a nice weight and feel to it.

Lovely as always! And that it's a convergence of GW pieces (I love my GW/thrift store stuff) and from your Mom and...it's a table that tells a story of you/your past/your present...and is bright and elegant at the same time!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Lana
What wonderful colors! After the red, white and blue summer colors, the beautiful earth tones are refreshing! Love it!

Marty, I love your table for its warm colors and the natural look of chargers and coasters. The salad plates are charming. And the flatware is just breath taking.

ReplyDeleteHi Marty! I love the colors in your table and I especially love that flatware. Horchow is a catalog I drool over but definitely wait for the sales!! Come visit my new blog when you have a chance! Linda
ReplyDeleteMarty, this table is just lovely & such bargain finds you gather...Lucky Dog!
ReplyDeleteFor some reason it is making me think "Octoberfest" with the colors & the heavier Old World feel to it. A very nice thought while we hover near the 100º mark & I hear you guys are over that!! Yikes!
Stay inside & cool,
fondly,
Rett
This is a beautiful table. I love those leaf bowls. Truly lovely!

ReplyDeleteHi Marty!
ReplyDeleteWhat an inviting table! The colors just say, "Please sit down and enjoy your meal and some gabbing". I have one and only one of those chargers and I love it. The 222 plates are wonderful. Great design and colors.
I hope you have a terrific weekend!
Okay, if I read enough of these posts I may just start learning a thing or two about setting a beautiful table! It's kind of like playing dress up, I'm thinking? Great finds! Janell
