Tablescape Thursday

A few months ago I shared the picture above of one of my new goblets I was excited to find and hoped to do a tablescape with. I'm joining Susan's Tablescape Thursday, thanks to Susan for hosting so we can play with our pretties! Click on her name for lots more inspiration.
This is a fall tablescape using my new amber colored goblets.

I couldn't get a good shot this afternoon, when I used the flash the color of the gold tablecloth showed up much better, but the frosted fruit caught too much light.

I've had the tablecloth so long I've forgotten where it came from. The dishes are from TJ Maxx, the flatware from Tuesday Morning, the napkins from TJ Maxx, napkin rings from Ross.

The centerpiece has candle holders from Michael's (last year)
I tried really hard to get a good shot of the etching on the goblets

Maybe this one is a little better:

Can you see the leaf design?

It looks so much prettier in person!

I haven't been buying as many things to decorate with, but was on the lookout for some "yellow' glassware since my favorite color is yellow. This amber is about as close to yellow as I could find.
First I found four and kept looking for more. We even looked in several cities when we were on vacation this past summer. I could find it in pink, blue, and clear, but no more amber. Finally, I did find four more!

I hope you enjoyed seeing my new fall tablescape!
I also hope you enjoyed seeing fewer photos!

Happy Fall!

Table Top Tuesday

I'm joining Marty's Table Top Tuesday, click on her name for lots more inspiration.
I'm finally starting to do some fall decorating, not into the pumpkins, etc. yet, but changed from the whites and lighter decor (see below) to deeper tones (above.)

The end table in the living room had the white vignette above, but now has more fall colors:

I really like the bible verse on this plate:

Love,
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul and mind.
Matthew 22:36



The vignette on this low curio cabinet no longer has the white vignette, but this new one:

The summer vignette is below:

This pretty candle box is new!

I recently bought it at Hobby Lobby with a gift card, a birthday gift from my daughter!

Isn't it beautiful! I just love it!

The other end of the curio cabinet:

This curio cabinet is in the dining room.

I'm enjoying the nice fall changes!

The terrarium below replaced the summer vignette on the Bombay chest in the living room:

The summer vignette on the Bombay chest:

I posted the picture above since this view in the living room is rarely seen on my blog!

I filled the terrarium with faux dried yellow roses, a candle, and a figurine.

The figurine is one I bought when I was a child (I collected figurines even then!)

Yes, I guess it is probably an antique! LOL!

I hope you enjoyed seeing the before and after fall changes I have made! I will be sharing many more changes to fall in the future, please return again to see!

Tablescape Thursday

I'm joining Susan's Tablescape Thursday this week. It's still very hot here in FL and I'm not ready for fall's browns and oranges just yet, so I opted for a setting with mostly greens.
Inspiration for this tablescape came from these April Cornell napkins:
I bought two sets of these napkins a few months apart not realizing they were very similar.
Today I chose the napkins on the left as the background color was closer to the tablecloth.

The placesetting:

The dinner plates are from Dollar Tree. The salad plates from Marshall's.
Napkins from T.J. Maxx, I've had the napkin rings so long I've forgotten where I bought them.

The Centerpiece:

started with this iridescent dish from TJ Maxx:

the bottom is also pretty:

but, alas, the bowl can't even been seen!

I used velvet and silk flowers with faux berries.

The goblets are also from T.J. Maxx

A special place for you!

Please join us!

I hope you like my slow transition to fall here in hot Florida!
