Although
the calender says it is fall, I am not ready to give up some of the softness of
the rest of the year. Fall brings all the rich earth tones and while I love the
change of seasons, sometimes I need a moment to enjoy the softness of the day.
Our
family brunch is always a special time of the week and a new baby makes it even
more special. So to celebrate our new addition and the fall, I decided to set a
table that brings both the newness of life with the tradition of fall.
Start
with my favorite tablecloth that matches my kitchen.
Add
the white Ikea charges and my main dishes with teal accent plates.
My
everyday Mikasa French Countryside plates.
Soft
teal bowls topped with white leaf bowls. I love the bowls for fruit salad.
Small
white acorn place cards with the family names on them.
This
cute ceramic basket filled with soft white hydrageneas. Where do they get
hydrageneas in October? I have no idea but God bless them.
White
flatware continues the softness of the table.
My
Mikasa glasses are so pretty.
Blue
napkins with white duck napkin rings finish this soft fall table.
And
the cutest teal pitcher for orange juice, you can imagine.
and matching mugs.
So pretty! I happen to LOVE the rich earth tones of Fall but you've shown me a "softer" side that is quickly growing on me! Love the white and blue (is the new addition to your family, a baby BOY?). Those white leaf bowls are fabulous! How terrific that you have a weekly family brunch! Eating at a table like this would make it even more special!
