An easy table setting


I thought of a fun way to dress up our dark wood dining table. I found fabric for $2 at the thrift store and made a table cloth. I also bought 4 fabric placemats ($2 a piece) and splurged on a woven textured table runner ($17 at Tar jay!) which I cut in half to use vertically across the table. The candles, vase, and shells I had. Oh, and another great find, four gold chargers for $4 from goodwill. Love it! Well, I already had a black fabric marker, so to make the placemats have a bit more fun I drew the numbers 1-4 on them freehanded. I also ordered a chandelier and will hopefully have it by June so I can complete the dinning room. I also am doing a cute surprise in the living room and waiting on an order to complete it. I think I will leave the front living and dinning space alone after that. At least for awhile.......
My husband did not like our new "spring meadow" front door and said he prefers hunter green. ewwww
