Want thrifty home ideas you can do yourself?
I love how the rag wreath turned out and the colors are great.
Oh how I enjoy your blog! Of all the lovely things you have here, I had to chuckle and wonder where you got those angel napkin rings. You see, I worked at a ceramic/hobby shop in the 70’s and those are one of the things I did make for myself! I’ve lost them but I so remember painting them and the delightful little faces! Did you make them yourself? Since I live in the Pacific Northwest, I have so many things to choose from to decorate and I am going to use your table setting ideas with a twist of sphagnum moss and some fir cones and perhaps some lichen, as well. I procured a few pallets from a local oyster company and am also going to try my hand at your JOY hanging. Thank you so much for the ideas!
Hi, Marilyn. So sorry this took me a bit to get back to you. I love that you recognized the angel napkin rings. I got them at a yard sale many years ago and use them in some way every Christmas. I think I only have 6 but wish I had 8! I’m sure your table will be just beautiful!
