~Fall Inspiration and Simple & Sweet Fridays #127~

I know I'm thinking about Fall early,
but our pumpkins our growing in the garden and it makes me think of
~FALL~
I just bought the new issue of 
The Country Journal. 
They had a beautiful Fall tablescape in it and
it inspired me to create a little Autumn too!
I used some burlap landscape to use as a tablecloth.
I love the Rustic feel to it.
I added some sunflowers for some color.
I also added some Bee Skeps, Pumpkins and Candles.

I used my dishes from William Sonoma.
The French script on it and Roosters are my favorite for a 
Fall Tablescape.
Some pretty etched glassed I found at Home Goods and 
orange pumpkin dessert plates add more Autumn color.
Looking forward to dining outside for Fall.

I wanted to share with you our chickens 
are laying about 2 eggs per day so far.
We named the dark one,
Dora, the Explorer because she loves to jump up on our table and say hello.  The blonde is Lucy Lou, because she reminds me of a Charlie's Angel. Always doing different stunts.
They're a wonderful addition to our family.
I'm getting used to getting up at 6am to open up their cage.
With a cup of coffee, it starts my day with a smile.

  1. Beautiful features and I love the burlap table. I'm not ready to think about fall, but I will pin it so I can use the idea in October or November. Although, it feels like we have had summer for over a year now.

  2. I'm not ready for Fall, but I love your sunflowers. I have some in the garden that are ten feet tall and still have not bloomed.
    It sure has been fun watching them grow. That burlap table cloth is very creative and I love your dishes . . . country charm to the max. Have a great day.
    Your blogging sister, Connie :)

  7. How fun to have chickens, Jody. Love the names. There is nothing better for breakfast than a fresh, organic egg. Your table looks amazing, just beautiful. Fall is my time of year and the colours are so gorgeous. Your burlap table-cloth is very charming. Enjoy your meals outside. Deb

    Your Fall tablescape is so pretty. I've been amazed at the number of Fall posts that I've seen in the last week!
    We're still in Summer mode here :0) Like most people though, we LOVE Fall too . . . and I can't wait to welcome its beauty.
    Thanks so much for hosting!

  15. Gorgeous! I saw that use of the burlap landscaping material and loved it also. You did a fabulous job. I wanted to pick some up for Fall. Thought maybe Home Depot would carry it. It has been nice and cool here with rain so Fall had definitely been on my mind. Trying to hold off till Sept. before pulling out the goods! However at a thrift this morning I found an old green fertilizer spreader with orange wheels. Can't wait to fill it with pumpkins! Happy to be joining the party this week. Love the features! Don't know why, but often when I hop over my computer freezes and I can't scroll down. After several tries if it still won't let me I finally give up. Made it today on the third try.
    hugs,

  25. How beautiful. I love fall, it's my favorite season. I have to really restrain myself from decorating for fall too early. Such beautiful colors to work with. I usually try to hold off until after Labor day, but that doesn't always work. Thanks for hosting.
