Good Morning! What a wonderful day it is here! The sky's have opened up and it's raining a bountiful blessing all over our freshly planted sod. That makes me very happy!
I feel so thankful for quite a bit lately! After finishing my setting for Tablescape Thursday today, I stood back and looked at it and couldn't help but think how much it reminds me about the fruits of the spirit. I think setting a pretty tablescape for those you love is definitely a reflection of the fruit of the spirit. It's even more fun when you create one that actually reflects that message. Now, I don't seriously think the Mr. will really pick up on all that y'all, but at least I can and maybe you too!
These photos are going to be a little dark because it's quite overcast today.
That's why I decided to make a centerpiece out of my electric candle.
I think it's kinda romantic too!
Here's my setting! I brought out quite a bit of layers for this one.
I started with my brown crochet place mats.
Then added a bamboo charger.
The dinner plates are from my everyday dishes.
I then added a burgundy salad plate to give this setting more contrast and add a touch of fall color.
That was topped off with one of my everyday salad/dessert dishes.
My dinner napkins have fruit on them also. It's hard to see in these photos but they actually have a blackish brown background.
I couldn't help myself, I just had to bring this bamboo flatware back out. I just love this set. If you don't have any yet. You really should get some! They literally go well with so much!
I finally got a chance to bring out the green goblets I've been itching to use this time of year.
Here's how they all stacked up!
Here's a few closeups of the centerpiece I put together on our lazy susan.
I added a fruit candle ring to the light then mixed in a a small fall garland of flowers...
...and surrounded that with several ceramic pumpkins to add to the mix.
A little cream and sugar...
...along with salt and pepper and we're all set!
