I am joining Marty for TABLETOP TUESDAY AT http://www.astrollthrulife/ and Susan at http://www.betweennapsontheporch/ for TABLESCAPE THURSDAY.
Since ther is a touch of fall in the mornings here, I thought I would use these plates-they remind me of fall. Instead of a charger I used my red square dinner plates. The place mats are from Wally World- I used them last Thanksgiving. The gold coasters under the glasses are actually candle holders that I have had forever.This is all very simple to throw together as I never have enough time- but it still looks o.k., I think. I really need to try to find the time to do a really special table sometime-even though it is just the two of us- we deserve it! I bought these plates at an estate sale, someone told me they thought they were a give away at a grocery store about fifteen years ago,so they are not old. I love them though because of the colors and they have dogs on them- you know I like that.

Love your plates. The hunt scene is so pretty and is definitely one of my most favorite scenes. Love the square plate as a charger, that is so creative. A very pretty table and it looks so inviting. Thanks so much for linking to TTT. Hugs, Marty
Beautiful!! I love the china and your red plates are the perfect backdrop!!
Happy TT Tuesday! :-)

I love those plates, Vicky! They have the hunt scene, right? Have you had them for a long time?...Christine
This is so pretty! I've been looking at those plates at replacements and ebay for a year!! They are Churchill "Country Life" and were discontinued in 1998. I love that pattern, but they are hard to find in more than a few at a time. Love your beautiful setting!!
Beautiful plates...so English!
So pretty! I was delighted to find some hunt themed salad plates on eBay this summer -- they're not nearly as delightful as yours. This is a wonderfully rich tablescape.
Pretty plates. Love the hunt scene!
Great autumn table. I think I have seen these plates before and they look so much more expensive than a giveaway plate! I think your table is very special.
You've mixed your colors so effectively, and I love the dinner plates. Thank you for sharing your charming design. Cherry Kay
You did such a nice job pulling these things together. Very clever to use the candle holders as coasters. I love the way your red plates look in this tablescape.
I came over for your Barnyard Party, but happened to scroll down to this post. I have a set of those plates too. I love them! I've been waiting till fall or winter to use them for a tablescape. ~ Sarah
I love dogs and the china plates are so pretty for fall. It really sets a lovely table and the candleholders as coasters is thinking out of the box.
