~~~An Organic, Fall Table!!!~~~

As Fall is winding down, I am hanging on for just awhile. I wanted to set a beautiful, ORGANIC table for you! There are so many beautiful, natural elements that are all around us at this time of year. I wanted to incorporate them into a table. It all started when I found this piece of burlap at CTS for $3.99!!!! Not bad for a "tablecloth"!  Another beautiful, sunny morning to take some shots!!!
 I layered the burlap, a brown woven placemat, and a STACK of dishes! I am really loving stacking my dishes in many different combinations! It is such fun to see what I can come up with.
 Before we get to the dishes, I used this wonderful, rattan pedestal bowl for my centerpiece. I surrounded the base with nuts, small pinecones, acorns, cinnamon sticks and faux acorns too.
 Into the bowl went hydrangeas from the yard, seed balls, vine balls, mini pinecones, acorn picks and leaves!!!! An abundance or natural elements!
 A small pumpkin is nestled down in there too.
 I LIKE the impefection of this seed ball: it has been around for awhile:) Just like me!!!!!:):)
 I found this FAUX deer antler circle. I have thought of another use for it so it will be used at Christmas time too.
 I gathered a chocolate brown napkin with a tan napkin in a pinecone ring.
 There is also a bark covered ball in the bowl, can you see it?
 Added some acorns and scatters to the ring
 I used my rattan covered water glasses and my stemmed glasses.

 A shadow shot....so pretty.

 Here we have the placesetting.
 I put a faux acorn at each place in the pinecone bowl. Below that is a beautiful salad dish with raised leaf and berry design. I LOOOOVE these dishes!!
 The dinner plate is from my set of everyday fall dishes. I used my fave brown, bamboo flatware. Another staple for Fall.

 An acorn pick is tucked between the dishes for a fun addition.


 The pinecone bowl.

 Salad plate.






 I also pulled out my rattan covered S and P. These somehow get used all year long.



 This pottery bowl is perfect for this RUSTIC table!
 I love the little FEET! I got this at a craft fair many years ago. I collected pottery for YEARS!
 I almost forgot to add my candles! We can't have a table without candles, can we????? These candle holders are adorned with carved leaves. And the pattern on the candle mimics the pattern of the glasses.





 I wanted to show you the detail on my chairs. It is so pretty and rustic for this setting.

 And the back of the chair. Thanks AGAIN for coming by. I so appreciate each one of you faithful readers. I am joining these parties:

  17. Pinky,
    Rustic, charming and stunning are the words I use to describe this tablescape. I adore how the deer shed appears to lengthen the stem of the pumpkin! Each acorn and pinecone add to the ambiance of your dinnerware! Perfection, dear friend!
    Fondly,
    Pat

  19. Hi, Pinky! I hope you're doing well and that Thanksgiving isn't sneaking up on you too quickly! The table you have set here is beautiful with all the natural elements. There are so many God-given treasures we can use to embellish our tables, but we don't always notice them. I'm glad you did...the result is a beautiful table with lots of character and charm! I LOVE the dishes, too!!! Have a relaxing weekend...the calm before the storm! :-)
