Table Setting Inspiration & my 'pieces'

I have been following these 2 blogs {This Young House & Bower Power} by these wonderful, funny, amusing, fun girls. They started off as bloggy friends and eventually turned their love for fabulous deals, good humor, and conscious living into a beautiful friendship. They came together at Bower Power's house and made this humorous video, that inspired me to come up with a beautiful table setting. With a few pieces I picked up from my antique shopping trip, here is what I came up with. I had to go with the 4 people table setting because we do have a family to place at the table, but they had some wonderful ideas and I can't wait to try out some other ones.

Here's the crystal vase I picked up.

I planted a few plants in my finds and placed them around the house. Kitchen plant:

I also forgot to post a picture of these 4 old books I picked up for $2. This is the milk white planter I got for $2 as well:

See accessorising your house doesn't have to be expensive, you just have to use your imagination.
