Talking Turkey About Plates

"Hi Pop! Whatca doing?"

Hi Elvis, I'm just taking a picture of the
Thanksgiving hutch.

"Again?  Didn't you get a picture 
of this thing last year?"
Yes I did HERE, But I've added to it this year.

Do you see, in the back there?

We have a new turkey platter!

It's the "A bountiful Harvest" turkey platter
from Cost Plus World Market.

It was $29.99 but I got it on sale for $14.99.


"That's like almost half price....I think."


I have one other new addition on the top shelf.


It's the Fitz & Floyd "Bountiful Harvest
condiment dish with spoon"  


It has a cute little squirrel attached to a leaf. 

"SQUIRREL???" 

I also procured two turkey salad plates
to go with the one I bought a few years ago.

"You pro' what now?..."

I bought this plate from Pottery Barn 
a few years ago mainly because I liked it.

I hang it over the Pier One mirror during
Thanksgiving.

I bought one of these turkey salad plates 
from World Market this year 
to hang somewhere, 
also because I liked it.

I did want a set of these plates from Pottery Barn
to set around the table but 
they had just sold out at the store...
that got me to thinking.

So I walked down two doors to Williams-Sonoma
and bought just one of their turkey salad plates too.

Now I'm going to plan each year to buy a different 
turkey salad plate till I have a cool non matching 
selection to set around the table.
I think Martha Stewart suggested a similar idea once.
What do you think of that idea?

"I think humans are weird."

FANG-tastic Find At An Amazing Store

I just ordered some groovy
bat candle holders for next Halloween!
Aren't they just the coolest?
At 19.75'' high for the tall one 
and 15.5'' high for the short one, 
I know they will make quite a statement
next Halloween.
And the price was a steal!
They were $29.99 on sale for $16.99 each,
then at checkout there was an extra 20% off
plus free shipping!
I only paid $29.38 for both!!!
There was tax because the store is owned 
by Home Depot,
and what an awesome online store!
It's called
They have some very unique furniture.
Have a look at just one of their tables,

The Industrial Adjustable-Height Table!
You can raise 
and lower the table 
by just cranking the handle.
At $599 it's a bit on the high side 
but boy, is it cool!
They also have a smaller 
matching accent side table,

for $299.
And a coffee table!
for $499.
Not sure of all the reasons you'd need
to raise and lower a table....but I'm
sure you could think of some 
when friends come over.
Here is their Industrial Maison Coffee Table
"Made to resemble the sort of wheeled cart 
used in factories of old, this rustic piece will make 
an intriguing mark on any decorating concept. "
It sells for $429.
They have much more than industrial furniture, 
I just thought those pieces were very unique.
Here's their Maharaja End Table at $239
It would go beautifully in my 
India inspired room.
Here's a sample of their 
many garden stools.
They also offer a great selection of
bathroom sink vanities





 There's just something for everyone here
check out all the chairs


I love tropical!

I couldn't possibly show it all.
But here's a little more!
How about lighting?
Lighting
Nice ceiling fixtures.


The Winey Chandelier    *Bottles not included!

and more furniture.



It was fun browsing though their site...
I hope you have fun too.
The prices aren't the cheapest,
but I sure was satisfied with my 
Bat Candle Holder purchase.
I may even order one more item....
Reg. $34.00 on sale for $19.99 minus 20%
decisions, decisions. 

Thanks for stopping by 
and Happy Hunting!
