Fall Tablescape

 
+
 
The decorations I used on my dining room table are very simple, but bring a warm feeling into the house.  I started with a burlap table runner with leaves stamped on it in fall colors.  You could easily make a similar one yourself.  I purchased this one at TJ Maxx for $12.99.  I love making things myself, but sometimes if the price is right you can save yourself some time and effort.  The box on the table came from a yard sale.  My mother-in-law actually picked it up for me.  It had an old, dusty, and faded floral arrangement in it.  The woman she bought it from told her it is a drawer from a sewing machine table.  Perfect!  I took out the old flowers and got to work.  I am happy with the result.  All it took was a glass jar, a candle, some pinecones, and a little burlap for filler.  I have a small dining room table so I didn't need a large arrangement taking up a lot of space.  This works perfectly.
