More Fall Cheer

I think the fall decorating bug is back! Today I tackled my sofa table area. This reminds of a Pottery Barn tablescape for some reason. I just got my new Lady Jane Vase from Willow House this week - love it! I dropped a couple of fall branches in for height, color, and cheer.

For some reason I have renewed my love for my lanterns over the past year. I love them all year long and most especially in fall. Look at that warm glow of the candles inside. Yum!

My obsession with burlap bags continues. I took the last one and angled it on the table just to add texture and interest.

For perspective, this is how this area relates to the entry table I showed you last week. I am still on the lookout for a longer, skinny table. A sofa table is too large, alas. I hope to score what I want on my girl's trip to Northwest Arkansas this week.

And speaking of fall and cheer and Northwest Arkansas, one last thing...last week's prayer worked so well I will do it again this week. Dear Lord, we are praying for an Arkansas win against number one ranked Alabama. In your name we pray, amen! (And when that happens my husband will be praying I remember I am not in college anymore - ha!)

Your display indeed looks lovely. I love that new vase from Willow House! I wouldn't have thought of using a burlap bag as a table cover and I really like it!
