New Fall Centerpiece

Sometimes kitchen items can become great accents for our home and this two-tier ceramic tray from Williams-Sonoma is a good example. I was e-mailed a great on-line one day sale and all I could imagine was filling it with seasonal items to use as a centerpiece for my kitchen table. Love it!

I looked in all the stores for a fun fall votive holder and came home disappointed. Walked into the livingroom and saw this amber owl I found thrifting for 89¢. We have a winner!

My tutorial for these cute Yo-Yo Pumpkins can be found here. The acorn is a glass Christmas ornament.

This just makes me smile:@)
 And of course the tiered tray is available to serve food for any function that comes up.

I have two Williams-Sonoma tips to share:
  1. If you're e-mailed a great buy don't hesitate to call your local store, if they have plenty in stock there's a chance they'll honor the sale price saving you shipping. I put it on hold and picked it up after work the next day. Worst case scenario, they say they can't do it.
  2. Always give them your e-mail address when they ask for it at the register, even if you're already signed up. It puts you on a more "frequent buyer" list with better specials.
Have a happy day:@)
