I know this isn't necessarily Thanksgiving-y but I just saw this and had to share. And it would look fantastic above your perfectly placed Thanksgiving table, would it not?
If you ever head Weiser way, hit the little consignment store at the junction of Highway 95/Crystal Rd. It's on the right. You will be in heaven. It's amazing! This summer they had bee-yootiful wind chimes made out of silverware from a local vendor. I coveted them, but didn't have the $45 a piece that they wanted for the set of knives, spoons, and forks. I did think, at the time, I would love a chandelier made from silverware to hang over my dining room table IF I could find someone to make it for me and IF Dan wouldn't throw a fit and IF I had a dining room. Thanks again for the mismatched china idea. I'm excited to set the table for Thanksgiving. Our Goodwill is very good (wealthier community/one or two kids per family/all about giving things away). Unfortunately, they didn't have a great silverware collection. I'll have to go with what I have.
Thanks Jill!!! I will definitely go there. I'm so happy you like the china idea. Makes me smile when I say something and someone likes it:) You'll have to take pictures of your Thanksgiving set up. I want to see the pretty china. And I am so jealous of your Goodwill. The thrift stores here are so picked over and kinda crappy. But sometimes I get lucky.
