    You have a such a wonderful library of past posts on every season, and I really appreciate these type of compilations. Your tables have always inspired me. I’ve already created a couple for future posts of my own, but will certainly enjoy going back over all these, leisurely. Have a great week!

    Oh that was fun Mary! Your tables are always stunning, especially all your fabulous arrangements of flowers, vegetables and pumpkins. One of my all time favorites is the lush fall garland falling over the edge of the table, just gorgeous. All your tables have captured the colors of fall and the bounty of the season. I can’t wait to get to my local pumpkin patch!

    As always, the photographs are stunning as well as inspiring creativity in the least creative person you will find!! These posts are a wonderful way to start my week: peaceful and beautiful. But I wonder, often, where do you store all your pretties when its not their season? You must have a warehouse the size of a retail super store!!! Please continue to enrich my days and bring a peacefulness to my heart.

    You get better with each table and the photos are outstanding.
    FYI For some reason I am not getting the email everyday and usually have to search to see it. Also the match up boxes don’t have headers so it’s a guessing game.

    • September 14, 2016 at 5:22 pm

      Thank you Myrna, Have you checked your spam folder to see if your email/post notifications are going there for some reason? Also, I’m not sure what you mean by ” the match up boxes don’t have headers so it’s a guessing game.”

  30. September 14, 2016 at 8:25 am

    Your tablescapes for fall are simply gorgeous! Your photos are so inspiring they make me want to set a tablescape in my dining room. Your creativity is amazing. You never disappoint. Harvest Blessing,
