Thrifty Thursday

I should be double posting tonight because this is really a Thrifty Tablescape, but I'm running short of time so I'll just do Thrifty Thursday hosted by Leigh of Bloggeritaville!

I love jadeite! About the same time I discovered it the prices went sky high because Martha Stewart also loves it! So, I have picked up a piece here and there when I found it reasonable. Last weekend at a yard sale I added one more cereal bowl. The patterns don't have to be the same, but most of mine are Jane Ray.

These are my newest white ironstone plates. I've been looking for some simple white ironstone for a while. I found 6 of these at my favorite Angel's Antiques a couple of weeks ago for $1 each. They are Johnson Brothers Athena. Quite the bargain!

Layered with the Jadeite and topped with little shell plates from TJMaxx.

I pulled out some thrift store napkins to add some color and tie into my bowl of apples in the center of the table.

The jadeite butter dish is not vintage, but it did come from Salvation Army for $2.50! And the bird votives are from Dollar Tree. They were brown before they had a run in with a can of spray paint!

Now, wish me luck, because I'm off this weekend to the World's Longest Yard Sale with my thrifting buddy! We've never done this before and are very excited to try our luck! I hope I'm back here next week with lots of treasure!
