While out thrifting this weekend I came across some really good deals and after going home and looking at everything again "a lightbulb came on!!" with the items I had purchased, I had the rest of the Cinco De Mayo Tablescape! (just a little too late)
So, I set to work washing all the new items and pulling stuff out of the drawers and cupboards and Wa-Lah! We have a beautiful setting just waiting for some tortillas, rice, salsa and chips!!
Let me know what you think!!
 |
| This is a hand painted tablecloth that I purchased in TN last year for $10.00! I just loved the rich colors and the pattern, this is it's first debut!! |
 |
| Gold chargers from Walmart |
 |
| These red metal chargers were one of my finds this weekend. I purchased them from Savers and they were a set of 4 for $4.00. They are from Walmart and were originally $3.97 each! I plan to use them for the 4th of July! |
 |
| Another find were these pretty Home Trends buttery yellow plates purchased at the Goodwill for $1.00 each! |
 |
| And now for those beautiful saucers I was telling you about! I found these at Savers several months ago and they were $1.99 each. On the back they say TableTops Gallery, Italiano, Hand Painted. I just love the deep rich colors and had to splurge to buy them! (very well worth it) |
 |
| I brought out the Golden Bouquet Flatware for this setting. |
 |
| Stemware was purchased at the Dollar Tree |
 |
| Napkin Rings are Better Homes and Gardens from Walmart |
Well, I think it's time to get those tortillas going!!
Thank You so much for stopping by and I hope your day is Plum Perfect!!

Wow, very pretty! The colors match perfectly, it just looks so cute! How did those tortillas turn out? lol
ReplyDeleteI love this! Looks very similar to Kyrgyz style designs. Kyrgyz style has lots of yellow and red colors, you and my sister are just alike! Very much miss you and love you!
ReplyDeleteNice and festive...very nicely done, Aledia. The Italian saucers are the perfect piece to sit on the buttery yellow dinner plates. Love the table linens.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. I love how well the linens and dishes go together. The saucers look like the same pattern as the cloth. Beautiful. Thanks so much for joining TTT. Love it. Hugs, Marty

Oh, I am so excited that you found all the items to create the tablescape in your mind! The handpainted table cloth is amazing, and I have never seen one before. I clicked on the picture and made it larger so I could see the art work.......fantastic. Your chargers, yellow plates, stemware and flatware, in addition to your most colorful Italian salad plates make the happiest tablescape ever!!! I would love to be your guest and eat some Mexican food at this festive table!
