The dishes I used today were handed down to me from my grandmother. They're vintage green Fire King. I like to use the vintage white table cloth a lot, It's the one that my mom used for special occasions. The faux sea grass I found at Goodwill for 99 cents x 4, as well as the the clear cylinder vase for $1.99. The little pink ceramic vintage shell dish I also found at Goodwill for 25 cents! I'm using it here as a salt cellar with a vintage ivory spoon that belonged to my grandmother. The cute little sand castle was purchased for me by my husband at a yard sale, I just love it!Please visit our gracious hostess, Susan at her blog, Between Naps On The Porch to see all of the really nice Tablescape Thursday posts! :O)
I really like how you mixed together some of your grandmother's items...and created a a beach theme... Happy Tablescape Thursday ~ Susan

ReplyDeleteMary, what a beautiful table! I love how you mixed the vintage Fire King with the more contemporary white plate...that's right up my alley. You can't beat that green!

I loved your green Fire Green dishes. Your starfish is eye catching! The whole table pulls together just great!
ReplyDeleteI used to have the Fire King plates you used for your chargers! I should ransack the attic to see if I can find them! I love the green dishes, too. Wish I would have thought to collect them back in the day. Great job!
ReplyDeleteWow! Great finds - i like the green of the Fire King plates - this looks very nice.
