I also participate in Tablescape Thursday the host of that fun carnival is the Hostess with the Mostess...Susan of Between Naps on the Backporch.

I was shopping recently in one of my favorite stores, At Home in Homewood. I know you are surprised. I saw these lamps and fell in love with the shades and thought what a wonderful Thrifty Thursday project that they would make.

















Now I am on the prowl for some feed sacks, or I may have to make my own using painters drop cloths. The base of the lamps can easily be painted and aged to achieve a similar look. Almost zinc like. Stay tuned. The At Home lamps cost close to a couple hunrder a piece. I am certain I can recreate these for far less!























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













While in At Home, I saw this pretty Tablescape that I thought I would share. This one features all products found At Home.

What is a tablescape without the food?
I invite you to stop by my food blog, PLATES & PLACES. Tomorrow I will announce a foodie giveaway...something you will want in your kitchen! You can click here to find out more. You will NOT want to miss this one!
