Fall Decor for a Three Tiered Tray

When I saw that the ladies from Thoughts of Home on Thursday were having 3-tiered tray extravaganza, I knew I had just the piece to decorate. I recently found this brass 3 tiered tray at Good Will for literally, maybe 3 or so dollars. It's in fantastic condition.

I went to the basement and rambled through my bins and brought up enough pieces of fall decor to use. I simply placed things on each tier, and shuffled them around between the tiers until I liked the look.

I just used pieces of this and that, that I've had for a long time.

I tried to keep the look natural.

It sits on the tea cart my husband recently bought.

I found this topiary screen Saturday at Good Will, and decided to create a different vignette, featuring the tiered tray.

I like it as a backdrop, and it works well with the room.

It's not easy to see, but the pitcher has a pumpkin on the front.

I wasn't really excited over the tea cart when we saw it, but I'm glad my husband wanted it, because now it's a favorite spot to decorate!!

Just a few more days until it's officially fall!! So happy fall, y'all!!

Linens & Things

I love finding tablecloths, runners, napkins, and other linens when I am out thrifting. Whether it be at consignment shops, GW, or yard sales, I will usually snap up a pretty linen if it doesn't have a lot of stains. I will show you some of my favorites. I found several pieces embroideried with this design at a favorite consignment shop. This blue runner (reversible to stripes), found on consignment. This is one of the nicer quality tablecloths I have found, $4.00 at a thrift store. This cloth was around $10.00 on consignment. This runner is also reversible to polka dots, and was a consignment find. This pink and white gingham is perfect in the sun room, and is a consignment find also. This is the most valuable table cloth I have found, and it was $2.00 at a nearby yard sale. It is a vintage Wielunder. They sell on ebay for 30 - 90 dollars. Mine is in pristine condition!

Trash to Treasure

We had noticed this "jar" sitting near a trash pile, and my husband decided to see what it was. It was full of dirt, and covered in grime. After soaking it a while, it looked much better. The shape and color is very nice. At first I thought it might be a globe for a lamp or some type of candle holder. The bottom has an opening, and no markings. Do you know what it might be? This is how I'm using it. It's made of thick bubbled glass. Any guesses?? Know what this was in its former life? It makes a wonderful vase for faux flowers! It's a vintage fly /wasp trap!! Once yucky, now pretty!!!

What's in the Hutch?

Yesterday I awoke in the mood to do some "deep" cleaning. First on my list was to dust inside the china cabinet in the dining room. Can you believe how much dust can get into a closed cabinet. Really, how does that happen? My cabinet has glass shelves and they were hazy with dust. This is a rather tedious job because I not only have china inside, I have all kinds of little "pretties" stored there too. It's one of the first things you see upon entry into our home, so I really should do this more often. I want show you the before, sufficeth to say, it had been a while since I had tackled this chore. Here are some photos showing the "after". Here is a collection of vases and crystal pitchers . These were all gifts except the smallest one in the front and the one to the right of it. China and a consignment shop cake plate. The china was formerly my MILs. More china . This little fairy lives here with her 2 sisters. They can all be seen
