Wishing you all a Happy Halloween!
Usually when I buy individual pieces, I don't buy the bowls because I hardly ever use them but I like the crown shape of these bowls so I bought them too.
I bought the pumpkin napkin holders the last time we went to New Orleans for hubby's Medical convention. The flatware set is from Neiman Marcus on line. I think the medallion and the swirls go so well with that of the dishes.

I gathered those small stems from the bar cabinet, to wash and sell them. But when I saw that they matched the plates, I decided to keep them again, lol. I used 3 types of stemware here. In addition to the green little ones, I added amber champagne flutes and blue based goblets
I bought the quilted runner while I was visiting my daughter in Fort Myers, FL, at Old Time Pottery for $3.
In case you are wondering why I added goblets with a blue base, it's to tie it together with the bowl.It's not easy to see but the bowl is actually colored blue and terracota. This Navajo bowl was given to my husband when he worked at the Indian Hospital in Gallup, NM.
"Boo!" 
I think I will set one more Halloween tablescape next week and then I will move on to Thanksgiving. I will spend Thanksgiving with the kids in FL but John will be home. I hope you enjoyed this one. Thank you so much for stopping by.

You changed your header, I like it. I love the shape and designs on these dishes and the color can be used throughout the year!
Hi Christine,
Those are really pretty dishes. I sometime by the bows but almost never the mugs. They do cost much more when buying individual pieces... and so I just get what I will use or display!
Everything is so colorful and pretty. Glad you didn't give away those glasses. Just fine another bed to store them under ;)
Thanks for joining the party again this week!

Wednesday's Bunny Hop Party!

So very pretty and Fall like. I love your dishes.

Christine,

Everything looks lovely as always!!

Christine, looks like you are ready for Halloween. Your dishes are pretty. ^_^
I love the dishes. The bowl shape is gorgeous! We actually do use bowls here often as I make so many soups and stews in the cooler months. My husband also doesn't like his salad touching his food, so he uses a bowl for salad too. The flatware does look beautiful with your china. Hope all is well at your house. I've been gone and I'm trying to catch up!
Great tablescape, Christine! Loved this so much.
And I have to say that I really love that picture of you and John! What a beautiful couple you are.
XO,
Sheila
I really like the dishes. The pattern is very pretty. The little haunted house is adorable too!
I love your header..... and your table (as usual) looks so pretty. The fall colors are my favorite.... I love the pretty green ....well, actually I love everything!
Beautiful table, Christine! Love your new green china and TRULY LOVE AND AM CRAZY FOR that pretty quilted runner!!!! And I agree with my buddy, Sheila, above: I LOVE that photo of you and John in your new header, it's a great one! And my goodess, AJ is your little twin, the older she gets. ;)
Best,
Gloria
Christine, as usual your table is gorgeous!! I love the green dishes!
I'm out of breath from doin' the Happy Dance about those dishes!!! I cannot find the words to say how pretty I think they are! I can totally understand why you HAD to buy the bowls....they are the coolest!!! The color just defies fabulous!!! Can you tell I might like them a little bit? ;-) I do the same thing....go to give something away and discover I really "need" it! We might as well just give up on trying to give things away...we "need" it all! :-)
very pretty dishes and an unusual shape.The flatware does go so well with the dishes. I miss Old Time Pottery-did I ever tell you that Bobby once managed theri store in Memphis? Oh how I loved those discounts!LOL!
Wonderful tablescape. The sage green dinner ware is so gorgeous, and I can invision so many things to do with those great bowls. Thank you for sharing your delightful design. Cherry Kay

First I love your new header, you all look so nice, I love your family pictures. Your tablescape is great, I love the plates and bowls, nice you can buy them individually. Goddness I'm so glad you didn't give away the glasses they look so great on your lovely tablescape. I just put things I love in boxes and store them, that's it!
