Tablescape Thursday on The Lawn


OH I had great plans, a green, green green tablescape but the week has flown by and my mind's eye of my tablescape isn't going to happen *I think I will save it for Earth Day*


Recently while I was in Florida visiting parents we decided to replace some very worn dishes (ohhhh that means I can use them for mosaics, YIPPEE) this was easier said than done. We looked through so many catalogs, we went shopping at The Gardens Mall in Palm Beach with not much luck. We did find a nice pattern at Williams Sonoma but when I looked at the price $35.oo for just the salad plate...WS got to keep them.


Sooooo...we pretty much had given up the search and going to "table it" until my next visit when DA DA Pier One came through...we made a last minute stop after lunch and we found our new dishes. We loved the pattern and the price! I snapped a few pictures before I left which I happy I did so I can share them with you.
