Last year, I was invited to a Christmas Tea sponsored by a local church. At the tea, there was an opportunity to volunteer to host a table for the following year. Guess who signed up!
I've always loved entertaining and have been sad the last few years having a smaller abode without room to host parties. This was a great outlet for me.
There is one hitch! I do not have any China or elegant dishes anymore. I've moved so frequently from city to city and state to state that I've given a lot of it back to my mom for safe keeping.
I had to find a way to get a hold of dishes for this event without breaking the bank.
I went to work visiting thift shops and online postings on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace.
That did the trick and allowed me to acquire beautiful dishes at a low cost.

I was able to host 8 ladies with whom I work. What a lovely evening of fellowship, worship songs, an encouraging speaker in a beautiful setting. Each gal felt like a precious jewel! I was so pleased to be part of this lovely event! Perhaps I'll host next year!
