86th Table Top Tuesday and Giveaway

So good to be home. We had such a fabulous vacation on Maui and enjoyed some much needed down time and relaxation just being tourists and playing on the beach. It always amazes me at how much work it is to get settled back in when you get home. We had an all night flight home arriving in Phx. around 7:30 AM on Friday, so most of the day was a waste for us. We napped and tried to get our acts together. Saturday and Sunday has been brying to get things under control. Grocery shopping is done and the washing and ironing is all done too, so I am now ready to party. Can't wait to see what you guys have all been up to while I was gone.

When we were getting ready to take our trip to Maui, I had to run to the store to stock up on all those
travel size toiletry items, and since the GW is on the way, of course you always have to stop. I love it when they have something fun that fits right in with my style.

I'm sure you have all seen these wonderful little Italian/Frenchy chef dishes. I bought 4 of the salad plates and have so much fun using them.

So, when I saw this really huge pasta bowl I just had to have it. $4.99 and 25% off for senior day, so $3.74. How cool is this.

Plus my little Frenchy chef just looks like he jumped right out of the bowl.

Now you know I had to play. This is the vignette I had in this corner,

Just remove the basket tray, add the bowl and switch a couple of things around and I have a whole new vignette.

My faux donuts in my new cakestand are perfect. (Except every time I see them I want a real one.)

Fruit, pumpkins, gourds, berries and a huge acorn. Everything stayed, just switched out the tray.

I know, my DH says I am going to wear the counters out washing them and changing the vignettes every 10 minute. lol Oh well, I'm having fun.

I wanted to bring back something for a giveaway, and when I found these wonderful burlap coffee bags at the plantation, I just had to get one for one of you guys. To enter the giveaway just click on my Maui post here.
