"Everything on the table came from [secondhand] stores and flea markets, except the pink napkins. I bought the pink napkins, pink Depression glass, dinner plates and salad plates over 20 years ago. The turkey plates are from Old Time Pottery. They are made by Churchill in Columbia and are called Thanksgiving. They are very similar to Turkey Multicolor by Queen's China, but a much cheaper knockoff. [The pink turkey] was on sale for $5, and since he had the pinkish tones he had to come home with me. I know pink and white is very untraditional for Thanksgiving, but after I saw the turkey salad plates it had to happen." —sandi_w
