The leaves are turning from red, orange and yellow to brown. Pumpkins have appeared on everyone's front porches and the fields are full of baled hay. We've already had a first dusting of snow. It's time for making soup and other comfort foods so I put together a harvest tablescape to reflect the fall season.
The warm wood of my mission style table looks perfect with the autumn colors.
I started with these large galvanized lanterns that I bought last year at the Las Vegas trade show. Aren't they awesome? I've already used them several times for different events.
I dropped a floral wreath with a few sunflowers around the base of the middle lantern then mounded several faux pumpkins along a dhurrie table runner. My pumpkins are of all varieties, velvet, resin, and natural materials. I like the mix of textures.
I layered some zinc chargers with brown tranferware.
I found these Staffordshire plates made by Meakin at a local thrift store. I paid less than $5 each.
It is the Fair Winds patterns featuring a clipper ship bordered with other historical American scenes.
My everyday flatware is American Colonial by Oneida. I love the satin finish that makes it look like pewter.
% 100 linen dishtowels are tied into a knot making for a generous napkin.
This was very easy to put together and is casual enough for every day but pretty enough for a party!
