Table Top Tuesday

Table Top Tuesday is hosted by Marty at A Stroll Thru Life, thanks Marty for hosting so we can all share our ideas! Click on her name for more inspiration!

My tabletop today is the Thanksgiving vignette on the small curio cabinet in the dining room.
I used the brown ceramic cornucopia filled with fruit, vegetables, and faux leaves. I found the cornucopia many years ago at a thrift shop.

The Indian maiden came from Hobby Lobby a few years ago, as did the "Give Thanks" metal sign.

The other end of the curio cabinet has a resin turkey, also from Hobby Lobby. The faux Aspen fall leaves are in the crystal vase.


On the right side of the curio cabinet is this vignette:
The Pilgrim rag dolls are from TJ Maxx
How cute are they??

I think it's time I named them, any name suggestions?
All I can think of is Mildred and Marshall.
I can't remember any famous Pilgrim names, can you?

I've forgotten where I bought the wicker pumpkins, I've had them for years.


This is not a tabletop, but I wanted to show you the fall garland I found at Hobby Lobby last week!

I call it my valance fall jewelry!
(The pearls on the right side are there year around.)

One more time:


Here's the foyer decor (I featured this last week on TTT)


I'm hoping to share one more fall tablescape (if Susan has Tablescape Thursday this week.) Then I'll pack up my fall decor and start decorating for Christmas! I hope to get an early start this year since we aren't having any company for Thanksgiving.


Thanks, for hosting, Marty!


Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

God's Blessings!

Tablescape Thursday

Tablescape Thursday is our fun day Susan at Between naps on the Porch hosts weekly. Thanks to Susan for hosting so we can enjoy our hobby and share with others! Click on her name for lots more inspiration.
Inspiration for today's tablescape was this white ceramic cornucopia. I bought it at a thrift shop about 20 years ago! I love it because it is so unusual being white!
It is filled with white faux magnolias and gold fruit.
The white Blessings block completes the centerpiece.

I'm using the gold leafed ceramic chargers from Pier 1 (20 years ago) with white Dollar Tree dinner plates. The ceramic pumpkins are from Dollar Tree.
The tablecloth has tone on tone fall leaves, it is from Ross (last year.) The pumpkin rings are from Hobby Lobby (this year.) I've had t he white sheer napkins several years. They have embroidered leaves on them.



I named this tablescape "Simple Elegance"
I thought about adding the gold mercury glass candle sticks,
but took them away since I used them in last week's tablescape


I think I like the cornucopia alone with just the Blessings plaque



A special place for you!

Plaque says: "Blessings - Remember to count them each and everyday"
(not just Thanksgiving! Added by me!)


Have a Happy Thanksgiving Day!

God's Blessings to you

Thursday

Fall Cloche Party!

I'm really late for Marty's Fall Cloche Party, but I didn't want to miss it! We didn't get the fall decoration boxes out of the attic until this morning, then I was gone most of the day with appointments. Thanks to Marty for hosting this fun meme! Click on her name for many more cloche designs!

It was late by the time I was taking pictures so the quality isn't that great. Sometimes I used the flash, but that didn't work so well either.
I'm starting with this pretty white ceramic pumpkin, I think I found it at Hobby Lobby a few years ago. Have you ever seen a pumpkin with pearls! LOL! This is a female pumpkin!!


Here's one of my terrariums, featuring a figurine I call Pumpkin girl, as she is holding a pumpkin.

Another pretty ceramic pumpkin outside the terrarium.
The terrarium is in the living room on the end table beside the sofa.

Below I'm using the large bell jar (from Pier 1) again with a pretty wire and mesh pumpkin inside
The pumpkin colored rose matches so nicely!

This wire cloche below used to be a hanging basket, I took the chains off and turned it upside down.

I quickly did a Halloween vignette on the hall tree in the foyer
This pretty medium sized etched cloche is from Tuesday Morning.
I don't really like Halloween so I only use "cutesy" Halloween decorations.


A cute witch's shoe under the large bell cloche, with a purple polka dot black cat, and a "Boo!"

Glittered squash from Dollar Tree, under a smaller wire cloche.
Squash like pearls too, and velvet fall leaves! LOL!

A small cloche holds one of my scarecrows (I have a collection of scarecrows.)
I wanted to do more scarecrows, but didn't have time.

I decided to use the white ceramic pumpkin in a second design, using a vine of fall berries.

Which is your favorite?


I hope you enjoyed seeing my cloche designs!

Enjoy Marty's Fall Cloche Party, I know I will! I hope I can find time to see all of them, I'll be looking at them all weekend! I still haven't finished with this week's tablescapes! It's been a busy week!

God Bless.
