~Outdoor Fall Party and Simple & Sweet Fridays #89~

We invited some neighbors over for a Fall Dinner Party.

The weather was perfect to eat outdoors.

I found this tablecloth at our favorite store,

Home Goods. It was a perfect pattern for a Fall Party.

I love using burlap in the tablescape.

It gives it that harvest look.

I have two of the prettiest chandeliers over the tables.

 Autumn is one of my favorite seasons.

I added my pumpkin plates my friend, Linda gave me.

It added the Fall touch to the table.

My friend, Margie made these delicious Spice Mini Cakes.

I had to make a couple of loaves of bread.

And of course,

some pomegranate martinis.

We all had such a good time visiting.

A special night and a 

surprise cupcake for the birthday girl.

A Wonderful Fall Dinner Party!

~Bistro De Paris Plates~

I loved these Paris plates I saw at Sur La Table

 and I had to have them.

The red and white checkered design

 and the script was just perfect.

I love how it looks with the fall decorations up.

 I felt as though I was at an European restaurant.

There's always so many choices in the stores for fall table settings.

But I do like the casual look of a burlap centerpiece. 

You can never go wrong with crystal glasses.

Glass makes your table shine and the colors of your tablescape reflect that.

The colors of fall are so pretty.

The deep purples and greens.

 The Johnson Bros. tureen gives it that simple classic look. It brings back so many wonderful memories of the family dinners when I was little.

The Holidays Will Be Fun...

Always on the hunt for wonderful pieces to add to the table.

Maybe some Thanksgiving dishes this year.
