Fall Tablescape

Meet my new Fall table.  I think I will leave it just like this until November 30th!

My favorite thing about this tablescape is that I used dishes I already owned, bought all the pumpkins and gourds at the market, and I made that table runner out of flour sack kitchen towels!

I have been looking for a white table runner for quite a while now and couldn’t find anything I liked and also didn’t see anything for less than $50.  I even perused the fabric store but I was so unmotivated.  I love the flour sack look and I only paid a whopping $8 for a pack of 4 towels and only used 3 towels for this project.  You do the math.  I. hate. math. but I know that’s a good deal, my friends!  Anyway, I’ll post a little more information on that table runner project later.

This table makes me want to sit down and eat some turkey.  The funny thing is that nobody will actually eat Thanksgiving dinner at this table.  Every year, we spend Thanksgiving weekend at my In-laws house.  It’s quite a crew… about 30 of us, usually.  About 20 of us stay there, under the same roof.  I failed to mention that there are about 6 teenage girls (my daughters included) and the bathroom space gets tighter every year.  All we do is eat and watch football and eat and have a great time!  Did I mention lots of eating?

I guess I need to have a little dinner party with a Thanksgiving theme, just to show off use my new table centerpiece.  The wheels are turning.  Fall small plate dishes, appetizers, pumpkin dessert, hmmmm…

Thank you for letting me share my newest.

Happy Fall, Ya’ll!
