I am home for 2 weeks and then back to Florida again, so I thought I would play while I am here. After cleaning up the house entirely (never got to the outside yet), I set a Fall table in the formal dining room . I wanted it to look a little formal so I dug out my Myott Staffordshire "India Tree" dinnerware from the garage. I think I found this big set from Ebay, stored them away and never used them until now.
I pulled out my rust colored ruffly placemats.
Starting with a leafy plate charger I bought from Walmart some years ago, I started layering the plates, dinner, salad and bowl.
Then I pulled out a clear green vase from the floor behind the tread mill and stuck some various orange and yellow flowers in it.
I pulled out 2 types of flatware sets, an orange and this reddish rust colored ones and you can see which one won. I think they work better with the placemats.
The set even came with sauce bowls and servers.
The embroidered runner came from either TJ Maxx or Homegoods. I have matching throw pillows but I took those to our Cape Coal, FL home.
Green wine glasses and gooblets with a very subtle orange tint
The set came with a doz. set of teacups and saucers but I only used 8. I had a sugar and creamer servers but no coffee pot so I went to my teapot cabinet to pick one that would work with the set and I found this. Now, I have another project when I am watching Rochelle's kids, go hunting for a matching teapot. This teapot is also made by Myott but the pattern name is Hedgerow.
I think the pattern is very Fallish, don't you?

That's a lovely autumn setting. Thanks for the inspiration! My parents also have a set of Indian Tree that was inherited from my grandfather and they spent years shopping at warehouse sales and antique shows to complete it. Next time I'm there I have to show off a setting.

Gorgeous Fall tablescape. The Myott Staffordshire Indian Tree is just beautiful ... great find. I giggled when you said the vase was behind the treadmill. I store things away just like that! Happy Fall and Happy Tea Day!

Hi: Your table is breathe taking. I went through each picture very slowly so I would not miss a thing. I don't think anyone can set a table like you do. You and your home are amazing. Sending hugs your way. Martha

So much beauty in one spot. It looks like you were expecting guests of the unique kind. I have just one server of this Indian pattrern, my sister-in-law holds the same platter. The goblets just have enough orange that they could be used other times. Lovely
ReplyDeleteHi, sweet lady...:)
ReplyDeleteYour table and dining room look just beautiful....I love your dishes..and I love the layering you did with your place settings.
Hope all is going good with you and yours.
