Nothing spectacular or new here. I did feel like just setting my dining room table in a simple, but Fall-like manner.
I love these amber colored drinking glasses that I found at Kohl's last year, on clearance. They only had the two, but I snapped them up. Most of the time it is either just me or me and hubby for dinner anyway.
I also found these little amber colored fruit or dessert dishes at Goodwill last year. I believe the set of 4 was $2.99. {Ah yes, the picture positioning that reminds me why I love Blogger so much}.
I found these salad dishes and the dinner plates at Pier 1 last year, also on clearance. I think I only bought two place settings of these as well. I also found the napkins and leaf napkin rings at Pier 1, regular price.
This little leaf serving bowl I spoke about in my last tablescape; this came from a gift basket that I won. Just the right size for a side dish.
A couple of more shots of my soup tureen. I haven't used this yet, but am looking forward to putting my chili or some soup in it. I was so thrilled the day I found this at Goodwill, as I had been looking and looking, and the day I wasn't looking, there it was!
It's in perfect condition and I even wonder if it was ever used. Its ceramic ladle was with it and also intact. Was it an unappreciated wedding gift? Was it stuck in its box in someone's basement and they did a clear out? Whichever, I am thrilled to be the new owner of it.
Table runner also from Pier 1 last year, regular price, as I was lacking in linens to join in on these tablescapes.
I'd like to get some more single pieces to mix and match. I think it makes for a variety of looks on your table without really having to own too many dishes. I'll have to see what's on clearance in the coming weeks!

I like this tablescape...very elegant and pretty with perfect fall colors! I like the soup tureen...like you, I looked and looked and finally got one on sale at Sur La Table. Now I am looking for excuses to use it. If I put it away, I never will!!
Hope you are having a happy week!

What a lovely table! You really made a great fine with the Soup Toureen, and to have the matching ladle is fantastic! Your plates and goblets look great together. ~ Susie
Hubby's sitting next to me and I asked him if he'd like a special table for everyday. I told him about your "work" and he said yes he would. Hmmm....I'd better get busy.
Your dishes and table settings are just beautiful.
Looking good! You've inspired me to toy around with my table this weekend!

I love this look! Absolutely beautiful!
I received a tureen as a wedding gift many years ago and have loved using it. It is white, and not as decorative as this one. Two weeks ago someone had it on their table; they bought it at GW. I just love your tureen and your plates. Soup in a tureern makes it special. Joni
Kathy, your table always looks wonderful, no matter what the occasion!! Love those amber glasses!
Hugs,

Pretty table. I'd be thrilled to find a beautiful tureen like yours too. Great find. Glad it went home with you.
Happy Thanksgiving! ~ Sarah
Hi Kathy,
You sure got some great deals from GW!
I love the dishes, the tureen and the glasses are really wonderful!
My grand-daughter is only 6 weeks old! I think she looks older in pics because of all her hair.
Thanks for coming by my friend,

Look at that beautiful soup tureen, it would inspire me to make more soup! My husband make the best pumpkin bisque last weekend, wouldn't that have looked yummy served in your tureen? Janell
The tureen is just precious! Who gives away these pretty things anyway? Your table settings are gorgeous.

Oh Kathy, I love your dishes. I think it is so much fun and so much more interesting to mix things up. I rarely buy anything but salad plates just so I can mix them together. Love the amber stems, they are lovely and your tureen is gorgeous. Fabulous grape pattern. Hope you have a super day. Hugs Marty
Some serious love going on here for the tureen! Your table is so pretty! I really like the mix of dishes.
So glad that soup tureen found its way to someone who would appreciate it! It is lovely, as is your whole table. Those goblets are beautiful.
Ooops! I forgot to mention how much I love your fabric pumpkins.
Beautiful Kathy! I just love the tureen!

What an absolutely perfect table setting you have created just in time for the holidays. I just love all of the different textures. Have a very Happy Thanksgiving.
How pretty. <3 It looks so cozy and elegant at the same time. Beautiful fall colors too!
Great tureen! You just never know what you'll find at Goodwill, I guess! It's a happy day when you get something really good like that!!! Have a great Thanksgiving!
Sometimes when you least expect it - there's a beautiful soup tureen! Wow, what a find. Happy Thanksgiving.
This is beautiful, Kathy! I love the white soup tureen! I can NOT believe you found that at the thrift store!

Hi Kathy...
My friend, your autumn table is lovely! It has just the right elements for a warm and cozy autumn dinner! I love the pretty fabric pumpkins in your centerpiece! Ohhh...and I have to tell you...I am just green with envy over that beautiful grape embossed soup tureen! It is GORGEOUS!!! What a treasure find! I know...every once in awhile...when I find such a sweet treasure...I wonder who and why someone let go of it? I guess it is our gain though. I also really like that beautiful pattern on your dinner and salad plate...really pretty! This is a lovely table, Kathy! Thank you so much for sharing it with us!!!
I also wanted to thank you for stopping by the other day. I really enjoyed your sweet note! Thank you for the congrats and warm well wishes, my friend!
Warmest Thanksgiving wishes...

Hi Kathy,
Oh, I'm sure this is going to be a long comment from me...lol I was just thinking about you today--and you came over to my blog! I was so surprised!
I love your tablescape--it is beautiful and I love those gold bowls...they're gorgeous!
Also, I love the pieces that your dad makes--adorable! (And I didn't know that One Cheap B--ch is your sister!)
I entered the sunflower giveaway--that is amazing. Beautiful for Thanksgiving!
Also, I didn't decorate my house yet--I will next week. I got the pics from last year and made a collage of them for the header...
Also, I have been posting on HGTV and got alot of feedback...I didn't know if you do that, but you might consider it so people would know about your shop...I just did it starting Thursday.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING from me and have a wonderful, blessed holiday!!!
XO
Pretty, pretty.
Love that tureen. What a find.

Such a lovely tablescape...I love the tureen...you must have a really nice GW! Thank you for sharing your charming design. Cherry Kay
Kathy...gorgeous soup tureen and love the plates and amber glasses! I've started buying things even if there's just two of them, too. You never know when you'll come across some more...right? :) Great fall tablescape!
Hi Kathy,
Pretty table! I'm always looking for a thrift store soup tureen too. Your's is beautiful. I think I would really use it if I had one. You're lucky the ladle wasn't broken. They usually are.
Kelly
Such a beautiful tablescape! Love the simple colors.
