Tablescape Thursday - paper placesettings

It's Tablescape Thursday once again -- time to decide what to bring to the cyber table this week. A few weeks ago, I did a couple of thrifty Christmas tablescapes using paper plates. That seemed to spark some interest for some of you....so this week I'm showing some of the other paper plates I've used on previous Tablescape Thursdays for those of you who are looking for a thrifty way to set the table or are running out of room for new dishes.




Perhaps you'll remember this setting and the next one from just a few weeks ago.


Pretty dinner sized paper plates can be found at any number of stores ...I've found them at Kohls, Marshalls, Tuesday Morning, Target, Hallmark and specialty stores. Clear glass dinner plates (and salad plates too) are an inexpensive item at Walmart -- They have round and square glass plates.




Both of these plates have a tropical look -- and I believe they both came from Target.



Caspari has some beautiful patterns -- these were found at a beach boutique.




A couple of fall designs -- one set came from the grocery store.


You can also find endless other possibilities for designs:
Fall leaves.....


....peacock feathers were used in a Halloween tablescape.


....Happy New Year confetti.....I think you could use pressed flowers...ferns.....valentines... photos.....Whatever you can imagine "under glass"! I would love to see your creations too.




This is week #2 of my paperwhites that I planted on New Years Day ... one bulb has really taken off.

Hope you'll visit Susan at "Between Naps on the Porch" to see what everyone's bringing to the table this week.

See ya!
