Rainy Day Tablescape 2011

I'm linking with Susan at BNOTP for "Tablescape Thursday".
Her blog is amazing so you've got to visit after you look at mine!!
You can see all the other participants here:



It's another rainy afternoon so I thought I'd put my tablescape together using a set of Pier One dishes that I got last year at GoodWill. A setting for 6 including large soups for $32.00!
I just used four here. These are really roomy, man-sized plates!

I was trying to think of a theme when I noticed my collection of real bird nests around. Well all are real except one. Can you guess which is the fake one?



The blue eggs are real blue bird eggs. They are the ones that the birds never came back too a couple years ago.


The bamboo place mats right under the plates, I got in Target in their $1.00 aisle. 4/$2.00

Found this fluffy feather outside.


I don't know what kind of nest this is. (It doesn't go with that blue bird eggs.) The nest is made of very soft things and is quite small.







Some bluejay feathers here.



Goodnight.
Shirley

  5. The bird's nest with the egg and feather is my favorite part. That's so perfect. I loved the whole table, though, especially in the candlelight.
