What'dya think of my "new" table? It's actually made from an old window that my mom found in the barn. I loved the paint-very chippy. And I also loved the original hardware so I kept it to use as a knob.

We built a wood box around the window, much like a shadow box or display case. Then, we purchased some legs from the hardware store and screwed them onto the box.I still need to apply paint to the legs and make it look "worn" like the table top, But I couldn't wait. I just had to share!

And there you have it....a side end table made from an old window. FREE. How's that for thrifty?

Now, I just have to decide what I want to display inside. Perhaps treasures that we find on the beach. Maybe old broches that I have inheirted from Grandma's and Aunts. I could putold letters inside and make a vingette of old and loved items. What do you think? What would you put inside to showcase? You are all so creative, I would LOVE to hear your ideas!
I am also linking this up to Roadkill Rescue.

Now, onto to Tablescape Thursday, which is hosted by Susan of Between Naps on the Porch. Tablescape can also be Thrifty.

With Thanksgiving around the corner, I wanted to share this Harvest inspired Tablescape...

All of the tablescape wares can be purchased at Harmony Landing in Homewood, Alabama. Eveything from the dishes to the acorn napkin rings. Aren't they precious?
What is a tablescape without the food? I invite you to stop by my food blog, PLATES & PLACES, tomorrow for Foodie Friday! All this month I am sharing my families favorite Thanksgiving dishes from main courses to desserts.

If you live in "the Ham" (Birmingham), or anywhere in Alabama-heck even if you are passing through, Alabama Bloggers is hosting a lunch tomorrow. This from Rachel of Alabama Blogger, "November's Meet-up will be at Jason's Deli outside of Brookwood Mall at 11:30 on Friday, November 13th (You can remember Friday the 13th, right?). If 11:30 is too early, just come when you can - we usually end up staying at lunch for about 2 hours.The hashtag for this meet-up and all future Alabama Bloggers meet-ups (to make it simple) is #AlaBlogMeet."
I hope to see some of you there!  It promises to be a blast! (Helena, bloggers-Lets carpool!)
