"Susie Sells Seashells by the Seashore"....always loved that little tongue twister.
This weeks tablescape is just "Plum Perfect" for Susie!
 |
| I printed the shell postcard from The Graphics Fairy. |
 |
| I found the dish set at Goodwill in TN, $7.00 for the whole set. |
 |
| All of the seashells you see in this post were in a big bag at the Peddlers Mall here in Louisville for $3.00....What a Deal!! |
 |
| Shhh.....the tablecloth really isn't a tablecloth at all----it's a shower curtain in disguise!! Another great Goodwill find for $2.00. |
 |
| I have used this stemware A LOT lately but they are so pretty and seem to go with so many different settings. |
 |
| The shell candle holders were also from the Goodwill and were .50 each. The shell coasters were knew in the package, set of 8 for .99. I think Susie would be pleased :) Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a blessed week! This week I am joining the following blog parties!! Tabletop Tuesday Tablescape Thursday Seasonal Sundays Let's Dish! Your Cozy Home Party |
Very lovely! There are some really great deals on that table:)
ReplyDeleteI use a shower curtain on occasion too, some of them are quite lovely and the price is usually better than an actual tablecloth. lol
What a magnificent set and great buy!
ReplyDeleteGreat to have you be a part of Seasonal Sundays.

You got a great deal on all of your finds, and best of all they look so great together. Your tablescape is very pretty...I'm surprised you found so many great things at Goodwill. I need to go shopping with you because the Goodwill where I live is terrible. Looks like you have a great eye for bargains though! Thanks for sharing your table at my party.
ReplyDeleteWell, this Susie certainly approves. How inventive you are with this tablescape!
ReplyDeleteHi lovely lady.

love your table! Great job!
ReplyDeleteGreat dishes, Aledia! What a deal, too! Love the shower curtain as a tablecloth ~ why not! Your table looks great. I'm thinking about shrimp and lobster now!
ReplyDeleteYou did come across a great find with your seashell dishes. I can remember trying to say the "Susie Sells Seashells by the Seashore" and how funny it was as a kid. Thanks for sharing and for stopping by my blog.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely wonderful Earth Day table. I love the shell dishes!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! I love that you are using a shower curtain for a tablecloth...I have a couple of pretty ones and you have inspired me. Love all the details, you really put a lot of work into this table and it shows. What a deal on the dishes, I love them!
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jane
I could open a shop with Susie with all of the seashells my family has collected over the years! Your table is so nice--I'm a beachy dish fan--see my tables if you don't know how true that is :) Happy Earth Day! Linda
ReplyDeleteThe table is wonderful with all of it going together. Great tablescape.

Aledia, this is so great for summer! I can almost smell the salt water! Beautiful job. xo
ReplyDeleteLove your seashell tablescape! Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my blog. I have followed you back :)
ReplyDeleteYou are very thrifty and this table looks like a professional decorator set it. I love the china and think your glassware is a perfect match. I was going to ask you where you found the tablecloth but amazingly a shower curtain! Pam
ReplyDeleteYour seashell table has me wishing for the sea! I love putting sea shells up to my ear to listen to the ocean :-) Love ALL the details, and you are very creative using the shower curtain! I am your newest follower.
ReplyDeleteThis is perfect for Earth Day, A.! That was some buy on those dishes! I live a block from the Beach, so I definitely give this a thumbs up! Thanks so much for linking to Let's Dish!
ReplyDeleteWhat great deals you found!! The dishes are so pretty and the tablecloth is perfect.
ReplyDeleteI love seashells, love to make shell art, and I am crazy about your dishes. This is such a cute table, and aren't you the thrifty girl? Good job.
ReplyDeleteThis table is right up my alley! I would kill for those dishes (and you got them at GW!). Shower curtains are great tablecloths because the fabric is nice and sturdy and they come in so many great prints.

Aledia.. gorgeous table. love the seashells. wow, the shower curtain tablecloth is perfect. Great job. Happy Earth Day. xo marlis
ReplyDeleteGreat buy and plum perfect table for Earth Day. Thanks for sharing all the details.
ReplyDeleteLoveyour seashell table!
ReplyDeleteOh I AM longing for a day at the beach! Pretty with all the shells on your table. I love to "repurpose" anything around the house for tablescapes.
ReplyDeleteI really like a fun beach themed table and yours is fabulous! Those dishes were a bargain and all the shells and other touches are perfect! Great job! Hugs, Linda
ReplyDeleteWow! I want to go to that Goodwill store! What great finds, and you've put them all together beautifully. How clever of you to use that shower curtain for a table covering. I love Susie's shells for sale sign. laurie
ReplyDeleteBeautiful table! It has me longing for the beach. What great finds! You put everything together so beautifully.
ReplyDeleteWow, Aledia! You are the bargain hunter/finder extraordinaire!!!!!!! I'm really impressed with the price of the cool dishes and the big bag of shells! Since there are no oceans or seas in the Midwest, I'm left to either buying shells or collecting them when I visit the coasts. I alwyas make friends and family bring some back for me if they travel there, too. I have a good-sized collection now, but there's always room for more! For $3, though, you totally scored!!!!! And they're not those teensy weensy shells, either! Never, ever would have know the table topper was a shower curtain! How clever! The stemware looks great with everything, and the flatware was an A-1 choice! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI just love your blog! I ooh and aah over every element, and then you say what you spent, and I am blown away. You are a really good shopper! I love this beach themed table! The dishes are so pretty, and the colors are great! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteSince buying a place at the beach, I find myself drawn to all things nautical and your tablescape is wonderful. I cannot believe the bargains that you found. Love the shower curtain idea - I have used sheets in my blog, when I could not find the color tablecloth I wanted. Great job!!
ReplyDeleteI need to hang out with at Goodwill, I never had that kind of luck. You found so many great things. I love this seascape table. Dianne
ReplyDeleteWonderful finds. I hardly ever have the luck to find amazing items like you. I think I need to be near a larger city. The seascape table is lovely. Love the sea shells. Great inspirations here.
ReplyDeleteHello Aledia,
ReplyDeleteGoodwill is such a great stop for tablescape inspiration. I really enjoyed your seascape theme and how you brought it all together!
Wow, what a cool table, Aledia! Love those dishes and the shower curtain makes a perfect tablecloth.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post for Earth Day and Kathleen's party! Love the seashell plates.
ReplyDeleteLooks like SOMEONE is ready for summer!! Your table is adorable and what a deal. Love the amber glasses. Thank you for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteSTUNNING!! Fabulous, elegant and awesome tablescape! Love the napkins, the plates, the tablecloth - I love everything you’ve done. This is quite enchanting.
