[Elfsea] Newbie needs help...

[Lady saviti]

Just got back from shopping and they found some great
stuff at Thrift Town and so did I!
In one trip a complete table is ready except for a
plate and a cloth. Those are soon to follow. 

So many ideas! I love Ace Mart. Finn and I get some
great serving items there for 12th night last year.
