Elegant & GORGEOUS, I love it, love the white pumpkins, the red accents, the feathers, all of it!!!! You've been busy!!!!

Wow, what a beautiful, elegant table, Candy! Yachter's right, those white pumpkins are gorgeous! The silver stems on them make them so much prettier than if they'd been a brown. They were just begging to be paired with your lovely silver and white accessories. Ahhhhh!

Absolutely GORGEOUS! To pair those leaf mats with this setting was the perfect touch. WOW. Love this table, and the neat way you did your napkins too!

Seems Mr Fox is trying to help you accessorize!

hugs, Karen

Very classy, CC. That's a wonderful centerpiece. Love, love, love the white pumpkins.

That is so pretty! I am not an orange fan, so the white really calls to me! The pumpkins are beautiful! I guess Jane and I better get ours out! We have the same ones, from CTS.
You did a great job!

Ok, candy...I need to know! Did you hang from the ceiling to take that last pic ... what a vantage point! Certainly gives the full view! Well, maybe you have a tall ladder or a second story floor visible to this room. LOL!

Anyway, I LOVE the elegance of this table! The covered pumpkins are my fav & the "punch" of the rust leaf placemats! Beautiful! Great buys on the linens & very nice napkin arrangement. Glassware & china are perfect for elegant feel...and your DH's Mom's silverware, too. Great $$$ bargains...& even the free pheasant feathers add the finishing touch! I don't think I could wear my witch's hat to dine here! TFS!

CANDY...GET YOURSELF DOWN OFF THE ROOF!

:p)

Thanks,
I was so excited to use those pumpkin bowls once I found them and I had just bought the white pumpkins at ARC and then I started thinking about my china and crystal....

I had seen a beautiful table on Rate My Space last year and had been looking for some covered pumpkin bowls since seeing the one on RMS. I had just found the white pumpkins at ARC, so I bought the white bowls. They also had some in a terra cota color and a taupe color, but I thought the white would be more striking.

Then I had the pheasant feathers and just started shopping around my house for the muted tone items I used for the rest. Of course, I buy lots of tablecloths and napkins when they are 1/2 price at the TS, so my linen closet has been growing in content!!LOL I throw them into the washer as soon as I get them home, cause of all the bedbug scare now.

TTFN,
Candy

Absolutly STUNNING!

I actually just stand on the chair and hold the camera over the table to take the overview pictures.

I don't get on the roof until I hang my Christmas decor outside. LOL

Thanks for the compliments, you are all great (even if you are the biggest bunch of enablers ever!!)

TTFN,
Candy

Candy your table is just beautiful.
The white pumpkins make such an elegant statement, and
your leaf placemats are just lovely. Such great buys.
I really like the white pumpkin centerpiece for both it's shape and size and your candle holders are a nice touch.

I was laughing over Karen...'Get Yourself Down From The Roof'... I was wondering where the heck you stood for that overhead shot too!! lol

kathleen...Did you take out your white pumpkin bowls?
I just did the other day - doing my indoor decos... I was also thinking of Betty from last year, and how excited she was over hers. Hope she 'pops' in soon... I miss her.

jane

Really a pretty table, Candy, and your new pumpkin bowls go so well with your china. Love the way you did the centerpiece and those leaf mats really add a nice pop of color. Great job getting those overhead shots of the table, really allows us to get the full effect. Do not expect to see me doing that--I'd still be too darn short even standing on a chair! LOL

Luvs

You lucky girl, I have always loved those white pumpkin tureens. You did a great job, I think white and cream work so well together.
Frou

That's a wonderful tablesetting Candy! I do think you've 'out-Martha'd' Martha! I love the silver stems on the pumpkins.

Your rusty red placemats look similar to my green ones - are they faux suede?

Jane,
I wasn't on here last year, so I hope you will share pictures of your white bowls.

Luvs,
how about a tall stool? LOL

Frou,
I think the napkin between the bowls and the china let them work together. Otherwise, it kind of clashed.

Lucky,
Yes, they are and they had gold, rust, burgundy, and green, but I thought the rust would work for this table and to go with my Thanksgiving plates later on.

TTFN,
Candy

I love your beautiful table, Candy. You are so good at making wonderful centerpieces to go with each one. You also know what to buy to make each one special. Keep up the great tablescaping.

Punk

SO ELEGANT!!! Candy, I just don't know what else to say, except what everyone has else said!!!
NanaKaren

Ahhhhh perfectly beautiful!!
LOL @ Karen!!
Thank you so much for sharing with us!

Very nice! I love pheasant feathers and think they looks great with all the creamy white.

Candy, I truly love this tablescape! Everyone else has about used up the superlatives, but wow! elegant & so welcoming at once.
I even think we have the same china, "Moonspun" by Lenox?
You've given me great inspiration to try something like this for a little celebration comming up later this month.

thanks for posting, Candy! dishcindee

VERY ELEGANT! Love all of your accessories!

Thanks again for the compliments.
The china is actually Noritake's "Colony" pattern. I liked it because I thought it was classic and elegant and would go with anything and 40 years later, I still feel the same.
Of course 40 years ago, I never envisioned the dish collector I would become, thanks to this group, LOL.

TTFN,
Candy
