THANKSGIVING TABLESCAPE

 Portmeirion ~ Birds of Britain

I have been keeping my tables set with seasonal tablescapes during quarantine. Setting tables for me is joyful time spent. This beautiful set of Portmeirion birds belonged to my mother-in-law. They graced the corner cupboards in her dining room. She is now ninty-nine years old!

I think this set is perfect for autumn and Thanksgiving. I also pulled my Fitz and Floyd pieces that I think work beautifully with the Portmeirion. Gifts from my sister. 

I used a lovely glitzy table runner under the pumpkin centerpiece. It was one I saw at Neiman's and passed up because of the high price tag. This one I found at TJ Max for a very reasonable price.

I Love using this Pierre Deux wreath for Thanksgiving

Overlapping Thanksgiving and Christmas with plants, flowers, pumpkins and Christmas trees. It makes me happy!

This beautiful Carolina Sapphire Cypress will get a string of clear twinkling lights and the pumpkins will be replaced with ornaments. It will be planted in the yard in January

The Portmeirion Birds of Britain are a modern  pattern featuring birds found in the British Empire in 1794. The early items had the green band that has been retired and was discontinued. Many of the birds have been retired and are very rare. A very special set of pottery.

The sugar and creamer are lovely. The creamer has two birds and the sugar has three around. Also, on the lid of the sugar has a lovely vine.

ALL THINGS FALL AND HALLOWEEN

I don't know where this month has gone but I almost missed it! I've added my collection of velvet pumpkins around the house and with the addition of a few fall plants and pumpkins outside I'm ready to welcome fall, even though it was eighty-six degrees again today. Come along and I'll share my month with you.

Still summer on the veranda, the impatiens are still blooming. I will not pull them out while they are still pretty but I will replace them with pansies. 

My neighbor creates a such a cute creepy scary scene for all the little trick or treaters.

 Wish I had my phone with me to video this, it has bats flying around inside. 

Wishing you all a fun, safe and Happy Halloween. I am looking forward to November, one of my favorite months. Do you love November, I would love to hear. Thanks for stopping by and I would love for you to leave a comment, it's the only way I know you stopped by.
