THANKSGIVING FAVORITE


Time to bring out my favorite old platter. I never  actually use this for turkey as it is so thin and has a hairline crack- I just love to  look at it.

We should all give thanks for what we have. I have been wondering if I could white wash this, I am just not much into orange pumpkins.Love the details on this pot-very appropriate for fall. I just put in leaves and dried stuff from the garden., but I may replace them with mums.Do you have certain things that you pull out for certain holidays? For me it's just not Thanksgiving without pulling out my old turkey platter. I am joining Marty at http://www.astrollthrulife.blogspot.com for Tabletop Tuesday.

TOUCHES OF FALL


Slowly changing out to fall decor.It has been in the 80's this week instead of 99 and over 100 so I guess fall is in the air! I hope we have a nice lo-o-o-ng fall, because I dislike cold weather. I don't think I could ever live out of the South-I would be miserable in the cold winters-it gets cold enough here for me thank you very much!
Love my new apothecary jar from Hobby Lobby. I just filled it with stuff I had around the house.This little silver squirrel is a favorite of mine for fall decorating. I am joining Marty for Tabletop Tuesday at http://www.astrollthrulife.blogspot.com

FLAUNT YOUR FALL

It's time for the Flaunt Your Fall party at http://www.chiconashoestringdecorating.blogspot.com I have been slow getting my fall things out, I don't know what I do with my time lately, I just can't seem to get things done!I have been working on this table and redoing and tweaking, I think I am ready to just leave it like it is!
I couldn't decide if this was too busy or not. This plate is one I love, made by Vicki Carrol. She is a Mississippi artist and this is from her Magnolia Lane collection. The colors are just perfect for fall.I took off some of the leaves and the bowl-I think I like it less cluttered. What do you think?

IT'S FALL YA'LL

It's feelin like fall so I pulled out my pig-I just LOVE this pig! He weighs about 25 lbs-carved from a solid piece of wood. I bought him at a moving sale for I think $15.00.

I added some moss and my ginormous acorns, a few antlers and sedum. I will probably tweak him a few more times before I am satisfied. I am joining Mart at http://www.astrollthrulife.blogspot.com  for Tabletop Tuesday and Kim at http://www.savvysouthernstyle.blogspot.com  for Wow Us Wednesday.

LUNCH IN THE GARDEN SHED?

I love this tablescape set up on the potting bench in this garden shed.How nice after a hard morning of work in the garden to have a little refreshment.

Love the rose covered tablecloth, and the boots are too cute!Darling hooks to hold your hat and jacket, and a cubby for your gloves. This shed has everything.A very true sentiment painted on the wall. Hey I might be able to find my tools if they were this neatly stored.


Cute garden hose wreath on the door. I am joining Marty  at http://www.astrollthrulife.blogspot.com  and Kim at http://www.savvysouthernstyle.blogspot.com for their fun parties.

RUSTIC BUT ELEGANT LUNCH

A lovely table scape with McCarty pottery-made right here in Mississippi. This was at the Gardens of Madison County tour.The rabbits are among my favorite of their pieces. Of course the bowls are great too.Love the grapevines and ivy-perfect for an outdoor setting.
Cute little bluebirds.
Love these huge lanterns set around for ambiance. Look at the cute birds nest and eggs inside.This most unusual candle holder looks great in this table scape.For more information about McCarty pottery and the story of its beginnings go to http://www.mccartyspottery.com  And don't forget to enter my give away of the wonderful Barbra Streisand decorating book-check my sidebar for details.
