Glitz and Glam Fall Dining Table

Good morning !!!! I hope you are having a good week and embracing the beginning of Fall! I admit I LOVE Fall! So I am all into it. We don't use our dining room much so I keep the table set to greet our guests. It is the first room you see when you come in the house. So here is my Fall table in the dining room. The black dinner plates are my good china that I have had forever. I found the pumpkin plates at Home Goods about 3 years ago and got 4. Last week I found 4 more!!!! I got them, naturally:)

 I found the beaded, pumpkin place mats at CTS 2 years ago. LOVE them! The gold flatware is perfect for this glitzy table:)

 The view from the foyer.

 Love this embellished pumpkin, but forget where I found it.

 The table was designed around this runner from TJMaxx.

 Glass gourd on a glass candle holder.

 Gold pumpkin on a mercury glass stand.

 The napkins were my Mother-in-laws. They have a matching tablecloth and they are very special to me. The tablecloth and napkins are all hand embroidered.

 I scattered these sparkly acorns along the runner too.

 The pumpkin pillows were found at Bed Bath and Beyond several years ago.

 Let's light the candles!

 I love a touch of leopard so added a votive at each place setting.

Thanks so much for stopping by. I wish I could have a dinner party and have you all over! 

XO, Pinky

~~Dining Room in Winter~~

When Christnas came down I decided to go simple on the dining room table, but want it pretty as it is one of the first things you see as you enter the house. I found these leopard print candle holders recently and they jumped into my cart! I have been looking for some for years.

 They are so pretty to me!

 I found these little seeded rings and the colors are perfect.

 My lantern casts a pretty glow at night.

 These LED candles from Christmas stayed, they go so well with this runner.

 The viw from the foyer.

 In this corner is my teeny server and the vignette here changed too.

 This is one of my favorite jars. It came from Home Goods many years ago.

 I found this piece of rock at a neat store in Florida last year.

 And this lamp was purchased in Fl. MANY years ago:)

 My bamboo framed mirror is perfect in here. I think.

 

Thanks for your visit. I will be partying here:

Dinner Group Table

We hosted our dinner group last week and I got so busy with Christmas that I didn't get a chance to share. I hope you all had a WONDERFUL Christmas, we sure did!!!! I had fun setting a SIMPLE table.  I did use our Lenox Christmas dishes but didn't do a big stack or add alot of glitz! I am loving tartans again this year so started with my tartan plaid tablecloth and napkins.

 I have been breaking wine glasses lately so everyone else had a clear wine glass but I had this one.

 Detail of the centerpiece that I made many years ago.

 The centerpiece is flanked with my 2 deer.

 I love these guys.

 The pattern on these dishes is simple but beautiful to me: ribbons and berries.

 The S and P

 I also used my goldware. I like to make my guests feel like they are special even when I set a simple table.

 Can you see the poinsetta design on the napkim?

 The garland over the hutch. I am HOPING that this coming year, Joe may get some time to make me a built in piece here. The room is tiny and I could use the storage. We'll see:):)

I thought I would add this picture of Christmas day too. This was the BEST Christmas and Colleen is the best Christmas present EVER!!!!

Thanks for your vist. I didn't get a chance to share alot with you this holiday season. I am making lists for NEXT year to be more organized!!!! The new year is rapidly approaching! What are you going to resolve to do?
