Oh this table was a joy to create!  I had the image in my head and used some items that I had and went to Michaels and Fred Meyer to help out with the rest.  The chargers, white plates, tablecloth, and stemware are all from Goodwill.  The Love, Joy, Peace and Cheer plates, I purchased a couple of years ago from Fred Meyer.  The decorative accessories are from Fred Meyer and Michaels.

The four gold chair covers are actually pillow cases that I got on clearance at JC Penney.  The end chairs are two white linen pillow cases I received as a wedding gift.  I purchased a couple of table runners on clearance at JC Penney for the added flair.

I think my favorite part of this table was using a feather boa for the snow! I hope you are enjoying tablescaping as much as I am!

  19. This is absolutely stunning! And what makes it more wonderful is that you did it in a budget-friendly way!! Sometimes I think the things we create with found objects and second hand things turn out better and have more character and appeal than all just store-bought items. Sooooo…..when do we eat?? :) Thanks for sharing and many happy Thanksgiving blessings to you!!
