Here it is. Don't worry, I KNOW there's no chargers, dinner plates, no cute napkins or napkin rings, and even no silverware. But I'm still not unpacked all the way and don't know where half my stuff is. (<---------lame excuse :-) I bet all you "professional" tablescapers know exactly what to put with it to make it so polished and cute.......especially our gracious hostess, Susan, at
Between Naps on the Porch. :) Please see more tablescapes over there.
This black and white hen was my inspiration piece. TJ Maxx for (I can't remember how much) Found yesterday.
The black and white polka dot salad plates, I found at TJ Maxx also for about $2.99 ea. I think
The wire basket, I found yesterday at a local flea market for $2.
So here it is. My first ever tablescape. How'd I do? Any comments would be greatly appreciated. :)

I'm glad you're posting with what you can find! I love those polka dot dishes. Gotta get me some of these and that rooster! I'm a pretty big fan of the yard birds!

Welcome to Tablescape Thursday. You have to start sometime. I would take Linda's advice & add to it next week when you find your silverware & glasses, etc. It's looking great though. Love the plates, love the flea market basket, love the chicken, love the color combo.
I love the chicken and the polkadot plates, and it all looks great on that tablecloth. Congrats for taking the plunge and doing your first Tablescape! I still haven't done one and I've been reading these blogs for over a month.
Uh, those polka dotted plates are too cute!
I would say you did great! Come back soon - love your first one and can't wait to see more!
This is just a wonderful start! Our motto is Use What You Have!! That basket is going to come in handy for centerpieces~you can put just about anything in it, flowers, fruit, candles...You'll see how much fun this is!
Enjoy the rest of the week!!
