Penny's Vintage Home: Owls & Babies Breath

I usually do a table scape on Wednesday because I love to join Susan's party at Between Naps on the Porch. She hosts a party every Thursday...tons of inspiration for your tablescapes...be sure to drop by and visit her!
Yesterday when I was at the grocery store, I saw the prettiest big bundles of babies breath (4.99...can you believe it!). So, I picked a bundle up and started running ideas in my head about my tablescape for this week's party.

I decided to set the table in the kitchen ......

with some gorgeous rose plates and coffee cups.

I used a rose patterned table cloth and layered an antique cream lace cloth over the top.

I have a pink tea cup themed table runner that I made from fabric that HL has....I use this fabric a lot because I love it!

I put the bouquet of babies breath in a vintage pitcher....and for a little whimsey, I added a "cookies" sign to the vignette.

I decorated the ledge that is right by the table with some pumpkins and owls. The glittery 'FALL" letters came from the $1 bin at Michaels

Here are just.....

a few....

random pictures of my fall table.

To see if I liked it better.... I switched the pitcher that was on the table with the pink pumpkin that was on the ledge. Didn't like it as well, so I switched them back.

It's just a few week til Thanksgiving, so I am starting to run some ideas thru my head about our Thanksgiving Table! I also have started to pick up a few non perishable items that are on the menu.....does anyone else do that too?

Happy Fall!

Beautiful Penny! Love the bundle of baby's breath. I just got a wonderful treasure from my sis that I am anxiously waiting to put out for Thanksgiving. Can't wait to see what you do! I'm sure it will involve pink. Thanks for sharing with SYC.
