Table Top Tuesday

Time for Tabletop Tuesday! Thanks to Marty for hosting so we can share and be inspired by other blogger friends. Click here to see lots more!
Since I still don't have my fall decorations finished, I'm going to share several vignettes I have used the clock above in. I found the clock at Hobby Lobby and have enjoyed using it in many designs. The clock is almost 15 inches tall.

Below the clock is displayed on our small coffee table (which is a Butler's Table) in our living room.
The vignette has a cloche (which is a cheese dome) with my daughter's baby shoes under it.

A small framed silhouette is the third item in the vignette.

I don't think I have ever shared this vignette below, using the clock and another small clock with
a toile plate (from Hobby Lobby) and a small framed picture, with a dish of decorated orbs.

I bought the little frame at the Biltmore gift shop last January.
The picture is moi dressed in fancy tea party clothes!

The vignette below was featured on another Tabletop Tuesday, before I painted the little girl bust a cream color.
I hope you enjoyed seeing the many "faces" of ways this clock has been used! Do you have a favorite?

Have a happy day!

God Bless.

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.

Wednesday

Tablescape Thursday

Thanks to Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for hosting Tablescape Thursday so we can play with our dishes! Click on her name to see lots more inspiration.
The name of this tablescape is "The last roses of summer." Since it is still hot here in Florida we can still have a garden themed tea party.

Inspiration for this tablescape came from these tiny lawn chairs, I bought them at Hobby Lobby a while ago on sale at 80% off.
I haven't used them in a tablescape before as I couldn't get it together with a centerpiece, etc. until a couple of weeks ago I was in Ross and found this cute little metal doll chair for only $3.99! I knew right away how I would use it.
I filled it with roses!
I used the colors of the roses in my Old Country Roses china, and used the OCR china
with the green dinner plates from Dollar Tree! I'm so glad I bought those plates, I have been able to use them with so many tablescapes. I used them in a different tablescape last week, scroll down to see or click here.

I also had new Old Country Roses napkins found at TJ Maxx at a great price:
I was going to use the OCR napkin rings,
but thought the gold napkin rings give more of a pop!
I placed a red rose in each tiny chair:
They have little votive cups for candles in them.

I couldn't decide whether to place the little chairs on top of the salad plate, or
at the top of the place setting.
Which do you like best?

Love the centerpiece!

I hope you like my Last Roses of Summer tablescape!

I'm also linking to Lady Katherine's Tuesday Tea Time. Click on her name for lots of tea time inspiration!

Have a happy day!
