My Turkey just got some new friends. Last Thursday we went to the Big Mountain to enjoy the fresh mountain air. We wandered around the Big Village; entering tourist stores, with tourist prices. But when my sister & I came across these we just had to get them...
Turkey Salt & Pepper Shakers
There was also a beautiful teapot, that once we got it home we saw that it matched Sister's new ceramic Pumpkin - awesome finds that also had 45% off.
With a new Tuesday Table Top coming I needed some inspiration and with Turkey Day approaching, I wanted to have the turkeys as my focal point. Only the pumpkins are bigger then the turkeys.....
so how do I make that happen.... with pedestals. Well I didn't have any but I knew I could by going to the Dollar Tree.
Even though I got 3 of the same size candlesticks from the Dollar Tree, I wanted one to be a bit taller. When to work early and did a bit of scouting and found a taller candlestick. This morning I was just going to write about putting them together only I couldn't find my glass glue so using my hot glue gun, which isn't permanent & a good thing since Sis & I began talking about painting them. We came up with the idea to give it a mercury glass look. I was able to get the look I wanted - Turkeys as the focal point.
The is what it looks like, I grabbed some scatter leaves - bought 2 years ago from the Dollar Tree - and some acorns that I had gotten from Hobby Lobby a couple of weeks ago. Put it all together and voila ....
Well, that's the Table for Tuesday, have an awesome day of Turkey, full of family & friends love and thankfulness of God's blessings.
until next,
Mia
couple of things.... if you choose to try this the hot glue is not a permanent adhesive so move by the bottom stick and the raffia didn't make it the final cut, in case you wondered. Lastly, I will share my trip to the Big Mountain soon.
