Simple Fall Decor




I went "shopping" around the house to see what I already owned, in hopes of pulling together another Fall tablescape.


This is my trusty neutral candle holder, to which I added some free colored pebbles from freecycle. I finally had a use for the orange ones. :O)




A mix of vintage and new.



Frugal simplicity.





Lot's of warm candle glowiness.......






These vintage Hull bowls are my favorite Fall pattern........







I set them on a hammered aluminum cake stand, and had fun adding candles and apples.








I used a curtain valance on the table top. (Shhhhhh) :O)



Please visit Between Naps On The Porch for more Tablescape Thursday posts! :O)

    I never would have known that was a curtain valance if you hadn't told us!
    The clean lines & simplicity of this TT give it all a fresh crisp look. Very pretty!

    I am going to copy your wonderful idea of the candles and the apples.

    Love your use of the Hull bowls. We call that "Jewel Tea" in my neck of the woods ... because the Jewel Tea man sold it from his truck when I was a kid. I have several pieces of my aunt's collection ... You've prompted a neat memory for me, today! Thanks for sharing. ... Beautiful decor!

    What a great tablescape the vitage bowls stacked are so darling done this way. I love all the candles lit in the background. Great job.

    Blessings,

    I think it is clever to use the valance. Everything looks so pretty by candlelight, doesn't it?

    I love using things I have around the home. That's what I did this week too, but I used pink stuff for BCA month. I will have to cave and buy some black chargers next week so I can come up with something 'halloweenish' :-)

    I love shopping from around the house, always finding something I have tucked away and forgotten. Your table looks very nice. Love your Jewel Tea bowls.

    Sweet and simple -- very well done -- I'm a pewter lover so I adore those plates and what pretty color to those bowls too.
