Wanda, I really like your polkadot tablecloth and placemats. Did you make them? The reverse fabrics is so cute! Love your cameo heart vase and the s&p shakers, too. TFS!

oldalgebra,
Thanks.
The S&P shakers are new this year...from Cracker Barrel.
I LOVE their seasonal items. The S&P shakers are magnetic.

I'm waiting to hit the lottery (LOL) to get the Spring/Easter dishes they have now.

lynn,
Thanks.
Yes, I made the tablecloth and placements from some remnants I had.
I pulled threads to fray the edges.

I love to read the bargains all of you get...that's my kind of shopping.

The cameo heart vase was 40 cents at an estate sale.

I'm lovin' that you have Camellias in bloom in your garden! They look WONDERFUL on your V-table! Polka-dots are cute, too & yes, I love thrift shopping, too! Looks like you're having fun! Jeanne S.

Wanda.. I don't think I 'Welcomed' you.
It's nice to see your post.
What a cute and festive table.
I agree with the others...those S&Ps are really nice, as is that cameo vase.. and the flowers you have in them are beautiful.
Love what you did with tablecloth and placemats..I'm a sewer too..and Love to see another sewer.

I'm glad I read that you said Cracker Barrel has out their Bunny Dishes... For Sure I'm having DH drive me (about an hr away) to have 'Breakfast'...LOL...with the REAL intent to snag some more of those dishes. I got a couple in FL last year, and was sorry I didn't get a couple more.
I've been searching on the internet for them..and Ebay has them but for more than double what I paid..
The prices were high..but I just couldn't resist..they are so cute.

Very nice Wanda! Cameo heart vase and S&P are a great find. Your camellias are wonderful on your lovely table and so nice to be able to cut flowers in Feb. Heart shaped plates are so cute. The old shutter is a neat backdrop to the heart plaque. Love the Valentine tree. TFS your V decor.

Hi Wanda. What a sweet table! And I love your tree. I noticed that old shutter right away too, something so appealing about those in decor.

I read your my page...WOW! And nice to meet you.
hugs, Karen

Thanks all for your sweet comments and kind welcome.

Re the shutter....it is actually attached to an old 'in the wall' bathroom cabinet...the kind that had the mirror on the front.
I put spices in it that I use often to make them more handy.

How fun! I love all your polka dots, and how neat that you even found heart shaped salt/pepper shakers with polka dots on them too! It's obvious that you are a very talented lady with a big heart too! Thanks for sharing your pretty Valentines things here with us. Luvs

P.S. I found two sets of small shutters at the TS. I need to get busy and create something with mine--your heart looks cute displayed on your's.
