Thinking Ahead!

Hello!  Hope everyone is well and making progress on the holiday preparations.
I found these Saturday at Michael’s.  They were 40% off and then I had another coupon they took.

I have the plaid plates from PB, and I know WS has a plaid charger, but I am not investing over 300 dollars in seasonal chargers.  These will do fine for about $2.25 each.
I played a little with them.

The plaid plate from PB is a bit much with them!

I found a plaid tray at CTS for $1.00 after my coupon.  Good to fill up with treats and leave for the hostess.

I am having computer problems, especially with pictures.  I hope this works.  I am working on the solution!
Thanks for stopping by!

  2. I bought those same plaid chargers at Michael's last week. Haven't been doing tablescapes much, maybe these will inspire me. So glad to see you back! I have missed you and your inspiration. Let's get going with scaping again, ok?

  3. I got those plaid chargers a Michael's but in fall tones. Love the cute plaid tray! I'm jealous that you can go directly to the Christmas Tree Shoppe! Good to see you post something!

  4. Hi Kathleen! I saw the same chargers on Mary's blog (Home Is Where the Boat Is) this very morning and told myself I need them! Now I am sure ~~ what a great deal! Are we having the bundt challenge next week? Linda

  5. I saw the plaid chargers this morning, too, and went online to Michael's since I live about 2 hours away from one. They have to be ordered in multiples of 12, but the 25% off the 2.40 sale price did apply and there is 2.95 shipping right now, too. I am so excited to get these, they fit my budget!

  6. It's great to hear from you! I saw those chargers, too, but bought some Fall plaid ones so I'll just enjoy seeing your Christmas ones. I am looking for a tartan tablecloth, though. Have a wonderful week!

  7. So nice to see you! I need to look through Michael's, obviously. I saw those at WS and thought, you have to be kidding me, at $30 or so each.

  15. Lovin' the plain, Kathleen! I've seen lots of it around this year. Walmart had some cute packages, so I bought a few, as DD is a plaid fanatic.
    I'm happy to see you blogging again. I've lost interest. Nothing fun going on around here to talk about.

  17. Popping back in here to tell you I had to go to two different Michael's to find enough of these darling plaid chargers!!! Thanks for the inspiration for my Christmas tablescape. I'm finally coming up out of the doldrums & looking forward to the holidays. Nothing like a little *retail therapy* huh? LOL

  19. Guess I missed this when you posted. Those plaid plates are great...they are probably already gone from the store nearest me, but will check any way.
    Hope all is well with you and Mike.

  21. The plaid chargers you found look every bit as good as the ones I saw on the WS site this week. I was thinking that I could use the chargers I bought from Christine in her moving sale and remove the circular paper insert (currently tiger stripe) and replace with an insert cut from the plaid gift wrap I found at Marshall's last year. There you go again Kathleen! Inspiring us ladies to shine even if we are on a budget!

  22. Kathleen, I think those chargers are great looking. I need to stop into Michaels and see if they still have some. Hope all is good at your house. Good to see a post from you!

  23. The chargers are great and there are so many different combinations you can use them with! The trays are an extra bonus!!! I'm having a hard time getting inspired this year.

  24. Those chargers look great. I am already picturing them with things I have. I am just crazy about plaid. I am so looking forward to the holidays so looking ahead a little is fine with me! It is nice to see you back. I took a very long break too.

  26. Hi Kathleen! I picked up those fun plaid chargers at Michaels on sale too a couple of weeks ago, they are great looking for the price!

  27. I'm late to see this post but love those plaid chargers Kathleen! Wish I lived closer to a Michael's. I've done a t'scape with a tablecloth that matches the napkin in your second picture. Now, thinking I need some plaid chargers though I'm always a "fraidy cat" when it comes to mixing patterns. Wishing you a very Happy Thanksgiving this week!

  31. Hi Kathleen, I wanted to pop in and wish you a very merry Christmas. It sounds like you are going to have a warm one. What crazy weather this time of year. We'll not be in Maine as we are taking the little boys on a Disney cruise.

  36. Your table is so festively decorated for the New Year! Wish that I were not 40 miles from Michael's because those chargers are wonderful. So much nicer than the gold and silver ones I have. Thanks for stopping by my place. A Happy and Blessed New Year to you!
