My sister and I went out shopping together on Thursday. The shopping trip was my treat for her to pick out a birthday gift and she decided that we should go to the thrift shops. Not only did she find a birthday gift…but I found a few things for myself that were pretty and white.
I couldn’t believe the price of this pretty quilted table runner at the GW…..
…only .99 cents!!!
After finding this treasure, we headed over to the dishware isle and look at this pretty piece that I spotted. A huge white stoneware platter with Hydrangeas…..
…price $3.49 and the back says Martha Stewart Living Collection. And look what I found that matches it……
…price $2.49. As I was picking this pitcher up off the shelf…I already knew what I was going to do with these two pieces.
How pretty they are together!! I couldn’t wait to get home and put these on my dining room table…and my little helper couldn’t wait until we got started either.
Well, Miss Chloe…don’t you just love what mommy did with the things she found that were pretty and white?
Hope everyone has a great weekend. I will be working on some alterations to a friend’s daughter’s wedding dress and sewing back on some loose beads…also will be making her veil next week. I was so hoping to be done by now, but I was pushing the needle through the dress and poked it underneath my thumbnail. Ouch!!! Thank goodness I didn’t bleed all over the dress. My thumb was so sore that I had to take a break from working on it for a few days. I’ll give you a peek of the wedding dress soon and also share my sister’s birthday gift after she emails me a picture of it.
Until next time…… blessings, Cindy

Hi Cindy~~~don’t you just love thrift shopping? I found some cool pieces last week. Your platter and pitcher with the runner looks great on your table. Your little baby looks just like my Chloe did.
Have a great weekend!

I sure hope I have luck at GW one day. I love the runner and the pattern on your dish and pitcher are so pretty and shabby chic. Little Chloe sure is cute. She looks just like my daughter’s Chloe.
