On a recent visit to Goodwill, I fell in love with this green, silk scarf. It’s super soft, silky, and because purple was the color of the week, it was only $2.50.
The light greens and blues speak Spring to me, so I decided I wouldn’t be wearing it anytime soon but instead using it as the inspiration for my Easter/Spring tablescape.
I started with some Pier One chargers, which were new in package from Goodwill a couple of years ago. Would you believe I bought them for $1 each on Dollar Day? It was in the month of December when I purchased them so maybe people looked passed them in search of red or gold pieces, who knows, but now they’re mine!
I’ve always said that my favorite section of Goodwill is the linens and that’s where I found these NEW Pottery Barn napkins. There were eight, crisp, white linen napkins trimmed in silver, complete with labels, just waiting for me to take them home. They were each priced at .69. .69 people! I love Goodwill!
Just like the service Pottery Barn offers in their catalog, I had the napkins monogrammed at my local embroidery shop. The total for both the napkins and the monogram came in at under $20.
To coordinate with the blues and greens in the scarf (turned table runner), I added another Goodwill find, blue handled silverware.
To complete the setting, I wrapped the napkins in jute and tucked in a little packet of carrot seeds to tie in with the bunnies on the table.
This year, the table is set in something simple and fresh, using some popular retail tableware, but the good news is, I found it all at Goodwill.
Have I mentioned I LOVE Goodwill?
Happy Spring!
The Goodwill Gal
