I saw these curtains in my favorite store, Christmas Tree Shop. They were in the clearance bin.
I liked the colors and it was a nice cotton and decided to get them to make a tablecloth.
I still have to finish it up, but you can get an idea….
I got 4 napkins from the valance…
4.50 for the cloth and napkins. I think I will get white ribbon like what is on them to cover the seams.
Or just put a lot on the table so that no one notices! :)
I can use it on my kitchen island when I serve buffet style from there.
I’ll use it in a tablescape after Easter…
I am joining Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for Metamorphosis Monday.
Thanks for stopping by..See you for Tabletop Tues..
You are amazing! (and I was thinking of your comment the other day - was she maybe Queen of the May (May Day) or at the Scottish Festival they still do every year?)
ReplyDeleteTotally AMAZING.....
ReplyDeleteOh I love the fabric and what a great tablecloth and napkins. I just love it. So pretty. I think you did good. Hugs, Marty

ReplyDeleteOh Kathleen, you and a sewing machine are a dangerous pair. It's amazing what you come up with!

Kathleen, you are so clever. I wish I could think out of the box when I see something like this. Love the fabric combinations, and you used them perfectly. I like the idea of using the ribbon down the seam, though it really looks fine just as it is. Great job!
ReplyDeleteFantastic ~! those are my new favorite colors. Love how you put those styles together.. so pretty
ReplyDeleteSonny
Great idea, Kathleen, and so pretty!...Christine

Isn't the Christmas tree shop great?
ReplyDelete& I really like your tablecloth - so pretty!
Wow, you are very clever and creative, Kathleen! but I knew that! Very pretty! The valance? Something you just saw in the window? Like Carol Burnett in "Went with the Wind"?
ReplyDelete:)
Now that's a bargain! Blue and yellow is one of my favorite color combinations. You are so creative, Kathleen.
ReplyDeleteI love blue and yellow..Great job.Love that store:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a deal Kathleen! Love that fabric, of course I love all the things you pick out! Great thinking outside the box! How's you weather? We're supposed to get up in the 70's by mid-week which is utterly amazing for Wisconsin in March. I can't wait to get outside and dig in the dirt!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week,
Cindy
I wonder if CTS will ever make it to the Midwest?! What a bargain and it makes a beautiful tablecloth I love the napkins with the striped border!
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative! I never would have thought of doing that. Very pretty and a great buy!
ReplyDeleteKathleen, you are the queen of frugal AND creativity. Beautiful colors and totally useful. I'm so impressed.
ReplyDeleteYou are just so clever, Kathleen. I think you may have more than a few dishes that would look wonderful sitting on your cute, new table cloth...the napkins are cute. You sure can't beat that price for a tablecloth and matching napkins.
ReplyDeleteThe Bargain Queen is at it again - I love the floral on the tablecloth aka curtains! Can;t wait to see it all decked out! I like the idea of using it on your island..would really dress up a buffet.
ReplyDeleteI love yellow and blue together...a winning combination. I enjoy seeing what you can do with a sewing machine!
ReplyDeleteNice work! Very creative.
ReplyDeleteHope you'll drop by AtticMag to give JaneT some advice on making a bench from a vintage bed. #81 on Met Monday.
