Used my own servingware (that we got as wedding gifts) on the shelves. I love white dishes. Cost: $0
Reused an old bottle with some dried prairie grasses cut from the landscaping. Cost: $0.
Wooden candlesticks (that were a Christmas present) with white candles as a centerpiece. Cost: $4
These ideas are nothing earth shattering. But I like these items because they are meaningful, while not costly. Rather than buying more stuff, I am a fan of rearranging and reusing items in new ways!

You're right about making small, inexpensive (or free!) changes--they can make a big difference. This reminds me of that show on HGTV where they redecorate people's rooms with stuff they find around the house. (I don't have cable so my memory is fuzzy.)
Thanks for joining us on Thrifty Green Thursday!
The fact that all your decorations are so simple, elegant and meaningful must make your kitchen very welcoming. Plants are my favorite home decor but I too have the challenge of keeping them alive! Thanks for joining us this Thrifty Green Thursday!
The grass in the bottle looks great--I've got to try that.
The older I get, the more I realize that simple is better! Thanks for sharing your tips! (I also love white dishes!)
I love the candlesticks and love how you can transform anything using a can of black spray paint.
