Thrifty Things Friday #54

Hi everyone!

happythumb

I was at Value World with my 50% off total purchase price coupon and I found this set of grays and cream crocheted placemats. I knew I had nothing like them and I love cream and gray together. So, I had to snatch them up. It was a four piece set for $1.99 (after my 50% off).

They washed up great!

I used an aluminum thrifted dish, a plain clear glass dish and a cream candle.

And I so enjoyed reading about Tammy’s son and his wonderful junkin’ skills at A Walk in the Countryside.
