Debbie Mumm Inspired Tablescape & A GIVEAWAY!!

My tablecloth and napkins are a recent win from a giveaway hosted by Pam at Virginia Retro! They are just so lovely and I was surprised and thrilled to find out that I was the lucky winner.
 You can go here-----> Virginia Retro to read about it.
 Pam would love to have you as a follower, she always has so many beautiful vintage linens to share. You will be so delighted with her blog, THANK YOU PAM!! 

I have had these yellow plates by Better Homes & Gardens for a few years now.
They were $1.00 each at the Goodwill.

My flatware was also purchased at Goodwill and they were .25 each. I was able to purchase a service for 4 and 2 large serving pieces.


My clear cake plate was a yard sale find for .25!!
 The glass tea light holder is from the Dollar Tree.
The little Debbie Mumm Teapot was $2.00 at a Church Rummage Sale
and it came new in the box.

My napkin rings were also purchased at Goodwill.
 I believe that they were $2.00 for the set of 4.  

I just loved this beautiful crocheted rose doily, also from the Goodwill for $2.00. 




The newest addition to my dish obsession  collection is this set of four Debbie Mumm  plates.
I found these at a newly discovered consignment shop and they were
 $8.00 for the set of four.
I love the bold colors and the different design that each plate has.

Cinco de Mayo Tablescape

Cinco de Mayo is May 5th and I will be in Texas with my brother and his wife for the arrival of their firstborn!
 A sweet little girl will be here very soon and we are so thrilled!! Small Prince and I along with my parents will be flying out on Monday and then returning home on May 9th.

I only celebrate Cinco de Mayo here in blogland and with a tablescape.
With as busy as I am and getting ready to leave for this trip I have decided to post an older tablescape that I put together right after I started doing tablescapes.

Forgive the picture quality, I've come a long way and I'm still working on improving my blog skills :)

This setting all started with this beautiful tablecloth that I purchased at Habitat for Humanity for $10.00
It is from Iran and is hand painted. Normally I don't pay more than $2-$4 for a tablecloth but this was so pretty and unlike anything I have owned so it was a must have! 

Gold Chargers are from Walmart

I purchased these pretty metal star chargers from Savers Thrift Store and they were a set of 4 for $4.00. They are from Walmart and were originally $3.97 each! 

Another find were these pretty Home Trends buttery yellow plates purchased at the Goodwill for $1.00 each! 
 I found these beautiful saucers at Savers Thrift Store as well 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)




You can read HERE  about my Golden Bouquet Flatware!!



Stemware was purchased at the Dollar Tree.


Napkin Rings are Better Homes and Gardens from Walmart. 


Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

The ruffled edge glass plates were purchased at a Thrift Store in Tn.

I found these at a Goodwill also in TN and there was no way I was passing them up.
$1.00 each!!

The ruffled edge dessert bowls were $1.25 here at the local Goodwill.
