Sharing Shadymont, My Mountain Cottage

I had a gift certificate left from Christmas, so Friday I decided to go to Queen of Hearts to see what I could find.  I found this wonderful runner.  It is huge, fringed on all sides, and wide enough to cover the slate in the center of my coffee table.

As the days begin to cool off, I start thinking about comfort foods, like chili, or vegetable soup.  With that in mind, I set the dining room table in Fall colors, and ready for soup/chili days.  This tablecloth has pears and apples on it, as do the dishes.  The cloth is a consignment find, and the dishes are from DT. The napkins repeat the colors from the tablecloth.  The tablecloth has a crocheted round one layered on top for more interest.  The candleabra is something I purchased last year at an antique shop.  It is done in a rusty look which I really like. This is my first Fall decor for this year and is only in the dining room.  The other will come out later.
