Starfish Table

I posted about this starfish runner that I made yesterday......
So of course, I naturally decided to use it in this weeks tablescape.

I like to use this set of dishes from GW, A LOT,


especially during the summer! The jade dishes underneath were my grandma's.
These are my new turquoise mercury glass candle holders from Big Lot's (which I also blogged about yesterday).......

they really go well with the ones I found at The Dollar Tree.

And of course little bits of flowers stuffed into old bottles.

Please visit Between Naps On the Porch for more Tablescape Thursday posts.

    Love the table runner. You're so lucky to have your grandmother's jade dishes. For today's post we'll call the color "seafoam." When I see your table, I hear the gulls!

    What a great looking table! It makes me ache for a beach trip! The green dishes really set the table off on a good note. The runner is great too. Thanks for sharing and happy TT to you!

    Wow, the runner is amazing. The colors are so beautiful. I have starfish plates, but they are little and insignificant compared to yours. Absolutely inviting.

    Your tablerunner is really great artwork. I love all the turquise glassware for its lustre and the color as much as for the sandy structure on the flasks. The seagreen plates of your grandmother and the starfish and mussel plate are gorgeous with them. Nice and beachy.
    Greetings, Johanna
