An Autumn Table Centerpiece...

*

*

Hello my friends...I hope you're having a fabulous day!
*
It's another beautiful day here at my place...with an expected high of 77 degrees...it really is beginning to feel alot more like autumn!  I am really enjoying dressing my home for autumn this year (of course, I always enjoy decorating for the different seasons).  Today, I think I will work on "autumnizing" the hutch in my dining room.  Right now it's full of summer whites and apple green. It's time to bring out the autumn dishes!
*
Well dear friends...while I busy myself with cleaning, organizing, and decorating...I thought I would revisit an autumn post from last year.  I hope that you enjoy!

~An Autumn Table Centerpiece~
a revisit from September 13, 2010

Autumn in a French Country Dining Room
*

*
My french country dining room is decorated in shades of red, gold, and olive green so basically it is already dressed and ready for autumn. Sure makes decorating for this season a breeze!

~~A New Autumn Centerpiece for the Table~~
*

*
I found the three tiered pedestal cake plates on sale at Hobby Lobby last year. I have been really anxious to do a table centerpiece with them. They measure 13", 10", 8" wide...and are 13" tall when stacked on top of one another. They make a nice sized centerpiece for the dining table. Adding the tall pillar candle to the top plate gives this centerpiece an overall measurement of 20 inches in height.

~~Autumn Pretties~~
*

Ohhh...I had fun decorating this!

*

Bottom plate: I used an autumn berry garland done with gold, orange, red, and olive green colored berries, four autumn floral picks with dark red flowers, cattails, etc., a few woody pieces from an autumn potpourri mix, and two vintage ceramic yellow birds.

*

Middle plate: Autumn pears.

*

Top plate: A six inch yellow-gold pillar candle, autumn potpourri mix, and four copper colored maple leaf napkin rings.
*

It was easy-peasy!!! Hehe!

~~A New Autumn Table Runner~~

*

This new autumn table runner was handcrafted by Mary Steininger of Diningout...Embroidered Home Decor...Etsy Shop. It really is gorgeous...I love the deep, rich gold color! It has beautiful embroidered white, twig looking vines on each end of the runner. Ooops...I didn't get a good photo of the embroidery. I also have six matching dinner napkins...sooo pretty and sooo perfect for the autumn season!

~~Roseville Pottery Candleholders~~

*

I decided to use my Roseville pottery candleholders. This pattern is called Autumn Clematis.
*

*
And Voila...a new autumn centerpiece for my dining room table!

I hope you enjoyed!
