Shutter Runner

As you may know, I like to change the 

look on our breakfast area table....a lot.

It's like changing outfits. Can't wear the same 

thing everyday...right?

 I also love using unique elements.

I was in the garage looking for something...

I forget right now what that was when I 

 spotted a pair of shutters that have been 

there forever and said to myself (again) 

'I need to find a use for those.'

Table runner? Table runner!

Gave it a scrubbing and viola!

Plopped three small pots from HD

into a basket. They'll need to be

planted outside next week.

Set the table with Longaberger

Classic Blue pottery.

 No placemats. That was too crowded.

 Longaberger napkins coordinate with the

 pottery and match the basket's liner.

 Tea set, salt & pepper,

and breakfast!

Apple Rings with cinnamon sugar

Just dip apple slices in pancake batter and

cook on a  buttered griddle.

(true confessions: It's a faux wood shutter,

 but don't tell anybody.)

I shutter to think!

Cheers!
