cheap thrills

 Yesterday, I took the children to the thrift store.
The generous cashier gave them their treasures.
She charged me $1@ for the tableclothes I bought.
I was delighted to find three fairly long ones to cover my table
when it is extended.  
Two of them made up the sides of the clothesline tent.
 The third, also blue and white, covered the table for our evening meal.

  1. Cute grandkids and I'm sure they enjoy visiting the thrift stores. I love your tablecloths and your table setting for supper is very nice.

    Have a great weekend ~ FlowerLady

  2. That blue cloth really catches my eye! I use blue and white dishes too so it would be at home here.

    Enjoy your weekend, Bonnie

  4. Cool! This was an idea I had for when my Grands visited, but ran out of time (and energy!) You've scored again! (the chair I had thought of buying at my local thrift store wasn't for sale! and I had it all planned where I would use it!) You know, with those prints, it kind of looks like a gypsy tent--exotic!

  8. Hi Rebecca, I wanted to tell you that I replied to your comment on my blog. Also wanted to say, after reading your posts about Bohemina, I'd say this tent is Bohemian style!

  9. On closer, inspection, I like how they have brought items into the tent to play with. Childhood is so precious, once it's gone, it's GONE!
