Tablescape Thursday/ or a Country Brunch

It's time for another Tablescape Thursday hosted bySusan, the Diva of Tablescapes. When your finished here head on over to http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/ for a great variety of beautifully done tables. I wanted to do a spring time table but when I woke up this morning and looked outside this is what I saw. Yap--more snow!
In keeping with the winter theme, I decided to do a Sunday Brunch, or casual supper table. Most of what is featured here are items I already owned. Below a pic of the table set for a Sunday Brunch. ( You can click on pics to enlarge)


Here's a view in the evening with the candle lit. The tablecloth, place mats and napkins were already living in my hutch. I made the brown toil table runner from $3 a yard fabric on sale at our local fabric store.


I shopped my house for the centerpiece. In keeping with my country theme, a little sheep, birdie and candle.



A closer view of a table setting. The plates were on sale at TJ Maxx for $3 a piece. They are Royal Stafford, so not a bad deal. I got 6 of them.






A closer view of the plates. I love the country scene.








I found these oh so cute napkin holders at Hobby Lobby for $3 for all 4. I think they are really cute and kind of old fashioned looking.






The glasses are from my Hubby's Grandmother.








Here's my cute little sheep. I took him off my mantle.

Thanks for stopping by and now I need to go check out all the other beautiful tables at Susan's. Cindy

  27. Goodness, what a pretty table setting. I was taking it all in and so glad to hear where things came from. Love those dishes!

    You know I was studying those napkin rings trying to think where I just saw them! Yes! It was HL. Now I'm kicking myself that I didn't buy them. They are cute.

    Nice to meet you. Hope you'll come by and say hi!
