~French Wire Cloches...Dressed for Autumn~
*
I only have a couple of cloches to share with you for the party today. I have several
cloches...six to be exact and most of them are glass. I used all of them in my spring
and summer decor and when it came time to decorate for autumn, I put all the cloches
away (just for a change) except for two...my french wire cloches. They are all dressed
up for autumn and ready to go! I hope you enjoy!

Here we are in my kitchen.
*
This old, chippy enamel topped table sits in the corner of my kitchen. I just love
this old, vintage table. She has beautifully shaped legs...don't you think? This table
was sitting outside when I came to live in my honey's home. It was love at first
sight...yes, it was love at first sight for my honey...but I was talking about the
table! Hehe! I saved this little beauty from the harsh environment and brought
her into the house. Sooo...all the distressing and chippiness...is "au natural"!

A Whimsical Table Lamp...
*
The tall table lamp always resides here. It provides a little extra lighting for this
corner of the kitchen when needed. I love the curvy lines of the bronze base!
The black shade is lined in leopard print fabric...a little fun and whimsy!
*
My orange and yellow rooster tassel looks nice with the black shade.

I just adore this pretty tassel! Just look at all of the luscious layers of ribbon
and beautiful trim! Kristen from Kristen's Creations made this beautiful tassel.
Thank you again, Kristen!

I used a couple of burlap placemats for the foundation for this autumn, table top vignette.

French Table Tray...

A distressed gray french table tray has joined in with this autumn vignette.
A set of autumn acorn plates, a small pumpkin soup tureen, autumn napkins,
and a few cluster of grapes fill the french tray.

New Autumn-Like Bowls...

A stack of four autumn-like bowls join this table top vignette. I just found
these pretty bowls at Dollar Tree. One can always use a few extra
bowls...I love the color and the sweet olive pattern!

Large Glass Canister...

My large glass canister is filled with cookie cutters. I love the look of old,
vintage aluminum cookie cutters. I can enjoy them year round in the glass canister!

French Wire Cloches...

A pair of french wire cloches are the star attraction of this autumn vignette.

Tall Wire Cloche...
*
The tall wire cloche in the back corner of this autumn vignette...measures
a stately 30 inches in height.
*
It is also gray in color and pairs nicely with the french table tray. It is filled
with autumn leaves, acorns, and berries. Climbing bittersweet is making its way
up to the top of the cloche.

The smaller wire cloche sits upon a silver pedestal dish and hosts
a lovely "goldenrod" colored candle. This french wire cloche is also

If you are a follower of Happy To Design, you may have noticed that I have a "thing"
for the color goldenrod this autumn season. I recently created an autumn tablescape
with a new set of goldenrod colored dishes...if you would like to see it...just click HERE.

Burlap and woven gray placemats and a glass milk bottle fill an old crock mixing bowl.
A smaller crock can be seen next to the large mixing bowl...a trio of aluminum buckets
spill forth from the smaller crock.

Well, Ms. Chari, there you go again!! You are the most creative!! I LOVE your wire cloches!! Very pretty with your candle and the berries. And you used your table as a part of the vignette!! I especially love that rooster tassel! He is just the cutest! And I guess I need to make a Dollar Tree run to get some of those bowls!! I love it all! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLove how the wire cloches fit in so perfectly with this vignette, Chari! This tabletop makes me feel like getting ready to grab a bowl for some stew or soup!
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful, Chari!I love that little enamel topped table and how you can decorate through the seasons. We had one when I was a little girl with a red top! It was tiny and I sat on a tall kitchen stool and mom and dad had chairs! :)

You are well dressed for Marty's party. I love your fall wire cloches and your vignette is delightful.
ReplyDeleteChari, I always look forward to your posts because there definitely will be something to enjoy as well as good ideas to inspire. Your table is filled with interesting things that you so cleverly showcased together. The wire basket beneath the table looks great there. Enjoy your week!------Shannon
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful, every detail is absolutely wonderful! You'll be the star at Marty's party!
ReplyDeleteStunning! Especially your "artsy" one on top! I love the napkins and whole vignette! May be one of your best. Very nice, Chari!
ReplyDeleteI adore wire cloches..first of all they don't break!! LOL..Your little table is just full of pretties...love the rooster tassel and the tray with the pretty napkins too. The stacked bowls and flatware give a cozy feel. I really love the cloche with the bird finial on top. Beautiful vignette!!! Hope you are enjoying fall...heard you already had snow in Colorado!! Loved seeing your message ..I haven't been posting as much ..way too busy at work these days but things are slowing down now and should be back to regular posts! Thanks for your sweet comments!

You always set the nicest vignettes with the coolest stuff.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful vignette! I love your tall cloche in the corner.
ReplyDeleteBarb
Love the wire cloche, and of course the french twist of it all! Love the enamel table too!!
ReplyDeleteChari, dear lady, I just love your wire cloches! I had a black wire cloche with a little tweeter on top and I debated whether to paint it or not. I ended up painting it because it goes better with my decor. However, I do love the sharpness of the black too.
ReplyDeleteLove all your arrangements. There is always lots of eye candy to enjoy here. Thanks for sharing and have a delightful day.
Blessings,
Sandi
Everything looks beautiful, as always! I do love the wire cloches. I only have one....I need to get some more : )
ReplyDeleteI don't have a cloche. Until about six months ago I had never even heard of them. I still don't know how the word is pronounced. I have never cared to be cloche savvy. BUT! those wire ones? Well. THAT is a different story! I need to go shopping!
ReplyDeleteI've so enjoyed reading this post and loved seeing how you've decorated your kitchen table. The wire cloches are so unique! I loved everything! Thank You for sharing your creative spirit!
ReplyDeleteDearest Chari,
ReplyDeleteAnother gorgeous vignette put together by the very talented you! It's so gorgeous! I love the black wire cloches, they just naturally look "Autumn-ish" don't they!
Love and hugs, Cindy
Darling Chari, my goodness the wire cloches are fabulous! I could never find anything around here like that, specially the smaller one with the bird, just awesome and your arragments with the candle and the berries. Love those bowls, and the roostertassel, lovely! Happy Cloche Party.
ReplyDeleteFABBY
Chari,
ReplyDeleteYou are so good! How you put all these things together! You are so talented! I have so much to learn...sigh
I put stuff together and get frustrated. Love Dollar Tree that's where I purchased my Fall plates last year and used on my tablescape.
Hugs,
LaDonna
Beautiful vignettes, Chari, and I love your wire cloches!...Christine
ReplyDeleteWow, what a beautiful vignette. I LOVE your wire cloches and isn't Kristen great?! I have two rooster tassels made by her.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Michele
I love the wire cloche's they look fabulous! Jennifer
ReplyDeleteYour cloches are very pretty and your vignette is lovely. I'm also enjoying the display under the table. I have a similar pair of the tall wire cloche but with rounded tops. I used one to join in on the cloche party fun this week.
ReplyDeleteChari..you have such a way of placing things...putting things together, that makes me yearn for such talent! I just keep looking and trying this and that. I honestly think you have improved me..a little. But I have to WORK at it and it looks ... giggle..like I am working at it.
ReplyDeleteEverything is precious!
I have NO wire cloches..nary a one. I need to *sigh* give up and go shopping for one because I'm NOT going to find one at a garage sale! LOL
Hugs!
Mona
Oh this all looks so warm and cozy and delightfully fall! Love your rooster tassel. How inviting.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! love it alland realy love the wire basket! Joann
ReplyDeleteYou do amazing vignettes Chari! Love everything! And especially those wire cloches! Where (May I ask) did you find them?
ReplyDeleteI'm also crazy for that goldenrod color only at my house we call it "tumeric" *winks* Vanna
