For inexpensive place cards:
Use free clipart from Graphics Fairy on cardstock. An old trick of the teaching trade is to outline with a magic marker. Just run your marker along the edge and it creates an automatic border.
Attach to a pine cone from the front yard, and there you have an almost free place card.
- tablecloth is a curtain
- Pier 1 pillow bought at GW for $2
- dishes, well can you spell C-H-E-A-P?
- Wal Mart $1 plates
- Wal Mart .88 stemware
- bottom plates are from my everyday set
- leave plates bought on clearance last year for .50
- feathers and brown cattails added to faux greenery (Not exactly what I want but, something I didn't have to purchase.)
- rest of the items were shopped from the house

I have to tell you that this is the prettiest table I have seen any where! I LOVE the feathers and cattails...and how you use a curtain for the table cloth, a great idea! It's all just so beautiful! :D
Very, Very Lovely!
It looks so pretty. What a good idea to use a curtain for a table cloth. I will have to copy that some time because I can never find a table cloth that I really like.
It looks beautiful, Tammy. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
Hi Tammy!
Your thanksgiving table looks absolutely perfect! Just beautiful. And you know I am all about the "thrifty" table! Have a blessed day with your family! And one of my "thanks" are for new friends like you this year!
Hello dear Tammy,
Your table scape is beautiful and so smart looking with your lovely place cards. Do you have a place for me there? I would so love to join you one year!
It's fun to be thrifty, isn't it. I have not bought one thing for my Christmas decorating this year and I'm not going to.
Have a beautiful and wonderful Thanksgiving, will the doctor have the day off?
Love you loads, Cindy
