RHODA is throwing such a fun FALL PARTY for all of us..
I can't wait to see what she has lined up and to see all of YOUR fall decorations, tablesettings, fall clothing...
Be sure to go thank RHODA and leave sweet word for all....
MANY THANKS for coming by to see my
FALLNESS....
I think all of us HAVE to have a Fall wreath...This one is in my dining room...
I need to make another for my living room...maybe this week...
With temps still in the 90's out here in WEST TEXAS,
I am finding it hard to get into the fall mood...
I'm doing it, tho !!

I am so enjoying the dried flowers JUDI sent me...dried flowers always seem a part of fall to me.
My thanks again, sweet JUDI.

I've never been much on EVERYthing matching on my table...But, I loved these dishes....these napkins....these napkin rings.....
and I DID resist the matching placemats and chose, instead, the solid, light golden ones.
(HOWEVER...I just MIGHT go back for the matching ones, too...:O)

Love that wreath BJ ... I don't know how you "Tablescape" girls do it ... I have two dinner sets, one for everyday and one for best, because I just don't have the storage space for more. Where does everyone keep all those dishes???
Warmest hugs,
Sandi

Even though it is hot where you live, autumn looks in place in your home. And, it looks fantastic.
I love the picture looking in from outside. Oh, and I want some chargers just like those. I love them!
Everything looks so cozy and warm and pretty! I love the chargers and the little cast iron bird candle holders. The view from outside would make anyone want to knock on the door and come in:>)
Absolutely stuning!

Have a great day!

BJ, honest to goodness I never go roam around Wal Mart...but I was there yesterday drooling over those Tuscan dishes! I love the colors and the shapes. You did good buying those.
Your whole table is gorgeous. I bet your friends and family just love eating with you.
Hi BJ
Your table looks gorgeous. I love the new dishes and accessories. Who'd of thought WalMart could get so classy!! Happy fall.
Hugs, Rhondi
My kinda lady, you make bargains beautiful!
Your wreath is very beautiful! And your new dishes are scrumptious. They have the perfect Fall colors. Are you going to use them for Thanksgiving? They'd be wonderful if you do. And I'm sure your sweet angel will be there too.:)
Come on over to Michigan. You'll get in the fall mood. Was in the 30s last night and the 50s today!
New dishes, Unh? I think you better go in search of that new hutch!! Beautiful Fall touch at your comfortable home. Sally
Fall is sure looking PURDY there in West Texas...loooove your tablescape! Come over and look around sometime.

I am so happy you are enjoying your flowers! Did I tell you they were grown and dried right in our cottage area.
Everything is lovely...

Your dishes are so lovely and you've placed them with other beautiful items for a great fall table.

I think I need to pay a visit to Walmart today ;) Beautiful fallness!
Hi, BJ! It's always fun to come by & see your beautiful tables, wow, love your new dishes. Those chargers are gorgeous, you really know how to set a table. Thanks for joining the party.
What a lovely table you created to share with us today. Those cupcakes sound scrumptious. Have a wonderful weekend.
I really like the tuscan dishes, my they go with so many things, I do have to admit my kept going to the lemon meringue pie, wowo that looks good, how do you get the fairy dust...I am a new blogger and I still don't know so much..thanks for sharing...come visit would love to see you, i am now a new follower....Phyllis
What a nice table, but I am in love with that wreath!
I would much rather get new dishes than diamonds...very pretty
BJ...your decorations are so wonderful! We too loved looking through your window - clever shot! Of course....who doesn't enjoy window peeping at decorations? You know...that should be a meme sometime....window peeping...for decorations of course! (our favorite thing to do...driving slowly down the street!)
I love those chargers. And only 3 bucks. I'm jealous!
BJ, it is always a treat to visit your place. All your fall touches are so wonderful. I especially like the photo from outside looking in. It shows just how inviting your home is! Thanks for sharing. ~ Sarah
Oh, my! I am so very jealous! I love all your dishes but those chargers you found at Wal*Mart are TO DIE FOR! Did you find them recently? I may have to send my sweet hubby out to look for them TODAY! Your tablescape is absolutely gorgeous. I can tell already that you are so talented.
I am totally in love with your blog! I'm so glad I followed the link over from SITS! Oh, and Mrs. Rhoda is one of my favorite bloggers, too. Isn't she the greatest?
Well, have a great day and I'll see you again REAL soon!

BJ, I am rewarding myself with blog visits after I write so many hours. A girl has to have some fun! I love this post. The cupcakes are just perfect for fall. Love your beautiful dishes.Thanks for participating in FF.
Love,
Gollum
OH! You bought the CHARGERS! I went to 4 Walmarts looking for those and found exactly ONE. They were advertised in last Sunday's paper and must have disappeared immediately. Your table looks lovely...with MY CHARGERS. LOL
Gosh I sure do love autumn and this is such a beautiful autumn table with the most scrumptious treats. I thought those dishes looked familiar. I have seen them at Walmart too, but seriously, they should put your tablescape in and advertisment for those dishes because it all looks so perfect!
