Dollar Tree Lemon Plates Table Setting

I remember seeing these lemon plates online last year on Youtube haul videos. I seacrhed all over, and I was only able to find the bowls and mugs to purchase. I just love the yellow and green color combination! I am not sure why, but I, and many other people seem to really be fans of this design. I have never particularly loved lemons before, but something about these plates I find beautiful.

I was very happy when I saw the lemon plates were going to be available again this year. This time I was able to pucchase a set of four dinner, and salad places. I just checked on the Dollar Tree website, and was sad to see it appears they are already out of stock again. Hopefully they will be back again next year for anyone that wanted them and missed out.

All of the crystal, and the glass butterdish were purchased at thrift stores. I like usinig clear glass and crystal pieces because they all go very well with each other, and pretty much any other dishes you will use.

The big, beautiful roses were ourchased from Walmart for $2 each. The yare also available in red. I love how large and realistic they are. The crystal vase was also only $2 at a thrift store. I thought the little hearts on it were a pretty, romantic touch.

The gold candleholder is one of two I found at Habitat for Humanity. Here, I placed one of my lemon bowls on top of it and am using it as a fruit bowl for decor.

Park Lane Glassware by Colony

This glassware was made by "Colony." "Colony" was one of a series of companies that produced glassware in the early 19th Century until the mid-20th Century. Those interested in the history of these companies can find it on various other websites, including Ohio Glass . NOTE: This vintage glassware is not to be confused with Park Lane "full lead crystal" ware by Mikasa . Libertad and I discovered Park Lane glassware at secondhand stores early in our relationship. I believe that some blue glass pieces of it were among my earliest purchases of glassware in San Antonio, Texas, where Libertad and I were married in 2009. For our first Valentine's Day together, in 2008, she took me to a store in Shockoe Bottom, in Richmond, Virginia; I think it was La Diff . I decided to buy a set of four, handblown glass tumblers, allegedly made in Mexico. They have what appear to be drops of blood all over them, blown into the glass. I thought they looked appropriate for V...

It's been forever since I last posted, so I decided to start again in what is my favorite season for decorating. Fall! In this tablescape, I have a plaid tablecloth I recently purchased from Dollar General. I love the addition of the blue in the fall colors of the plaid. It is somewhat unexpected. ' The bright orange, glass pumpkin was a HomeGoods find last month. The wooden board it is on is from Ross. All of these items were around only $10 each! The stack of plates were thrifted. I loved the neutral look of them, and I think they worked well for these setting, even though they have snow flakes on them. And I almost forgot to mention! The cookie is from Walmart bakery!

Pioneer Woman Tablecloth

I recently purchased this beautiful blue floral table lcloth by Pioneer Woman from walmart.com for under $20. I went with the largest one available to make sure that I had enough for my dining room table. I thought id it was too large, I could use the excess fabric to make matching napkins. I'm very happy with the print of this tablecloth, I particularly wanted the beautiful blue and white to showcase my yellow and green lemon plates that I purchased from the Dollar Tree last year. I think the colors and patterns are going to work very well to showcase lots of other dishes and tableware as well. The blue and yellow toile napkins that are on the table are ones that I made from extra scraps of fabric that I had lying around the house. They are not a standard shape and size of napkins but for just me and my family, I don't really care and they worked out just fine.
