sar asked:
My sister in law recently purchased a high priced kitchen table for a early Christmas gift. I don’t have a lot of $ to spend on her but would like to get her something very neat that she will cherish. Does anyone have any good ideas?

well i dont know your sis-in-law but i am sure that anyone would enjoy anything homeade…. i mean i dont know if you have a Walmart there but you can always go and get a Vase and some of those fall/winter faux flowers and make her a center piece….something that would go with the holidays…..i also think in housewares they have those little turkeys on a stick…..kinda like the butterflies that you would put in a spring flower bouquet……
hope that helps……..
A nice runner would be nice…they actually have some really great ones at Ross!!
teacup candles! im making them. they’re so cute.
A tablecloth or runner for the table might be good, or some simple but elegant centerpiece might be nice if she wants to have the table looking stylish when it’s not being used.
I’ve noticed that you can get some good deals on vintage table linens in antique stores, thrift shops, or church fairs. I got a really pretty cloth from the 1930’s with a neat art deco print. It had never been used (still had the tags on it). You might be able to find some high-quality linen or embroidered cloth that you could wash, iron, and tie up with a pretty ribbon.
You might also get a very simple glass bowl for a centerpiece between meals. Clear glass with some polished rocks or marbles might set off the table. A nice basket to hold fruit would be useful and decorative.
Or you could make her a runner for the table. Just get some nice fabric (a couple of yards of some interesting textured fabric, maybe?) and either hem the edges or finish them with some decorative edging.
I think you could also get a set of place mats, trivets, or hot pads to insulate the table from hot dishes for under $50. Those would be useful and also protect the the table.
