I love designing tablescapes. I started back in September 2010 and I now design tablescapes to share on my blog as well as on "Between Naps on the Porch" for Tablescape Thursdays.

My passion for designing tablescapes has sent me out on a search to buy more dishes that I can share every week.

I also enjoy making my own napkins to go with my different dishes and I love to mix and match some of my beautiful dishes.

Autumn is in the Air.

My Inspiration for this Tablescape was. The joys
of being with my Family on my Birthday this past weekend.
This is the only Vintage plate addict to this setting.
The pattern is called Widgeon John 1804-1881~
I have eight all different patterns of duck's
I have lots of warm colors and texture on the
five layers setting. You all know I purchased the soup bowls
last year from Kohl's. right.
My Tablecloth color is Harvest Orange, like my placemats from
from Wal-Mart. With my Crocheted one on top.
I wanted my Tablescape to be Rustie and woodsy for Fall.
I purchased the black crows from the Dollar Tree Store
just for some fun on my table.
The centerpiece was put together with
a grapevine wreath from Michaels. I purchased the Mums from Home Depot !!
The table is set and ready for you !!
Lets light the candles and have some Apple Cider 
with a stick of cinnamon if you like.
I purchased the Candle Holders from 
CVS.
I used a dark orange and yellow for my napkins
because of the colors in the Grapevine, all the colors of fall.
I hope you are having a good time!! 
Will its time to eat now. I hope you like Pork Roasts
and Sweet Potato souffle, and green beans with bacon bits.
Green mix salad, and for dessert  Bread Pudding with Rum Sauce.
I hope you all come Back!!
