It's a nature based tablescape with birds, antlers, sticks and pine cones.
At night, it makes the room feel so cozy!
I love these shipping tags that I picked up at Staples a while back.
I wrote out the names of our extended family members and added them to napkin rings and in the branch/vase piece on the table. I think the branch/tag idea would be a great 'Thankful Tree' for Thanksgiving next year. It would even be an interesting 'Family Tree' if you added birth dates and could figure out a way to dust it:)!
With most projects I try, there are usually a few things I would change if I were to do it again. The first thing I would change in this tablescape is my table runner fabric. I have a bunch of this chenille houndstooth fabric that I LOVE, but I have a few projects that I'll be using this fabric for and I'm not sure if I'd have enough left over to sew a table runner, so I used a smaller scale houndstooth instead.
See how the larger scale houndstooth looks better next to the woven place mat?
Also, I'd love some linen slipcovers for my Pier 1 Chairs for the sides of the table instead of the Lucky Shamrock Blue Chairs. I'll be working on that sooner or later.
The kids are certainly enjoying the new view:)!
Linking up to The Lettered Cottage.
Very cute! I love the outdoorsy (sp?) feeling.
