Fall Series Tablescape #2

Happy Wednesday y'all.  Having the best time putting these tablescapes together.  I only wish I had a larger table to fill it with more Fall.  lol. Living in a one bedroom apartment doesn't leave me much room so I try to keep my dining table area beautiful and change it weekly.  This week has been emotional and I think this weekend will be a restful one - I hope. We had a heifer get stuck in a pond and so I had to leave work drive and hour home and found out there was nothing I could do and I really think the heifer didn't want to get out.  We had heat alerts for the day and in some places it got up to 110degrees F. OH MY!  I don't blame the little heifer trying to stay cool.  My daughter went out to check on her about 4 and she was still there- breathing, head above water just chilling but I was getting very concerned about her not having fresh water to drink and not being able to eat. So with the help of an old farmer we got her out. It was not a pretty sight but she got up stood up and rushed to the barn for her evening meal--hooray crisis averted.  I slept much better Monday night. Anyway on to more fall decorating.  As in the previous post again I have to say Bravo to Target. They are making entertaining and decorating very easy this year. This table I used Navy and White and just thought it was beautiful. It added a coolness to the area and with matching pillows it was very inviting and comforting. I wanted to spend all morning there drinking my coffee and thinking of snowy days and changing fall leaves. I just loved it and I will use this table again this fall. For the items on the table the twig mats are from World Market, they were a little longer for my table so I cut them down a little. Again my everyday dishes from Pier 1 in the Spice Route pattern in the Sesame color, oh and by the way I went into Pier 1 the other day and it seems they don't carry this color anymore, well at least my store but it is still available online or maybe in a different store.  I am lucky that I have 4 Pier 1 stores close to me, heaven.

 On top of the dinner plate I placed a Navy blue plate that I picked up at my local grocery store (Kroger's) and last fall they had these 4 for a 1$ so yes I picked the blue, red, yellow and green. For $1 you bet. The gingham napkins, galvanized napkin rings, place cards and pillows are from the Target dollar spot - WHAT? yes they even had matching pillows. The glasses and the 2 tea lite holders are from the Dollar Tree. My daughter and I went T J Maxx a couple weeks ago and I purchases 2 of these lanterns which were $12.99 each, which I thought was a great deal, along with the filler and little mini white pumpkins, the larger mini pumpkins I purchased at Wal-Mart with a can of white spray paint. The center burlap is just a roll of burlap I used to make a circle in the middle of the table to place the lantern. The orange berry garland is from Michael's and the string lights are from Jo-Ann's Fabric. 

Last but not least the burlap charger placemats were a DIY.  I simply traced a charger on a piece of foam board, cut it out with an exacto knife and mod podged burlap down on top of it. I trimmed the burlap on the bottom and hot glued the edges the down. It's easy and a cute way to have any charger you want for the season.  My next DIY is with canvas. Oh the possibilities.
I hope you like this table it is so far one of my favorites.  Many more to come this season having to much fun to stop now.
Use your creativity and stay inspired.
Have a great Wednesday.
