~~New use for a Rag Wreath!~~~

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Happy Wednesday everyone! Last night I got together with a group of friends for dinner and to do a craft. We decided ahead of time to do a rag wreath. SO, I decided ahead of time that I would use it for a different purpose. I knew it would be neat to put it on my Halloween table around the cake stand I am using. SO, I chose 2 fabrics that I thought would compliment the plaid tablecloth and also have a touch of BLING!!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLeyZSq5NhHP29loCtU-bblAExp8QlE_u74SXrLKSQJhwHFDYvVOKXKqED5QDXYTCD4WdjAF-FFBXCaAzR8IMh-SP5NIe5B02M82QguWcosJsRJQclYyFDAFx82sdr_cHCYh_wccw9dQWA/s1600/IMG_9483.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480px" ida="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLeyZSq5NhHP29loCtU-bblAExp8QlE_u74SXrLKSQJhwHFDYvVOKXKqED5QDXYTCD4WdjAF-FFBXCaAzR8IMh-SP5NIe5B02M82QguWcosJsRJQclYyFDAFx82sdr_cHCYh_wccw9dQWA/s640/IMG_9483.JPG" width="640px" /></a></div> the 2 different fabrics that I chose.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB2CKyIIGhlJT29UK5OL5Z2X3pFJPRwiW1XN4U0CWNekyhy5kRTnKFXTlivdiewOS2itR0rsb54uGrbbnb1Gqyp41fNBEjvSv_ZRmM-Ox7qSod1XAGwhbdSgNWyMpbnFmvzDqdCXH90dMr/s1600/IMG_9484.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480px" ida="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB2CKyIIGhlJT29UK5OL5Z2X3pFJPRwiW1XN4U0CWNekyhy5kRTnKFXTlivdiewOS2itR0rsb54uGrbbnb1Gqyp41fNBEjvSv_ZRmM-Ox7qSod1XAGwhbdSgNWyMpbnFmvzDqdCXH90dMr/s640/IMG_9484.JPG" width="640px" /></a></div> It fits and works perfectly!

Autumn Reds...

I just love the end of the "leaf" season because all the colors left become so vibrant it is surreal.<br /><br />I recreated a table I did a couple years ago with Japanese Maple leaves, <a href="http://anita-faraboverubies.blogspot.com/2009/11/welcome-to-my-contribution-to.html">HERE</a>, but this time with mostly red oak and maple leaves.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ2Q6nFMgAuzZ-m63gEnF5cpeT_uIuBFvtoH36oSismhsLeb6ZqJ5fjpqa963ThGO5mQSxQJU6IU7Yqb6dG5nxGapwgVee3w4WuRLX5Zwpp_-lq6mrTVWXcxBKDozxvb5Ev-n9tRznEA/s1600/fallred7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ2Q6nFMgAuzZ-m63gEnF5cpeT_uIuBFvtoH36oSismhsLeb6ZqJ5fjpqa963ThGO5mQSxQJU6IU7Yqb6dG5nxGapwgVee3w4WuRLX5Zwpp_-lq6mrTVWXcxBKDozxvb5Ev-n9tRznEA/s1600/fallred7.jpg" /></a></div><br />These leaves are so breathtaking in person and sunlight just makes them even more vibrant!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc2xwbXKTDMxqwYuZ35hHQ9eCNscLiPTXAPZneDBxl5hI3pPwjoD3iw1LMzQhLsi6_7Rw9ZjxRx4A6DIwpYHd6ndd7qW6JQMlox05ZEu0VtKcQfQIajdKkeKK2vlC1Na-KYixGBe1Y3Q/s1600/fallred3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc2xwbXKTDMxqwYuZ35hHQ9eCNscLiPTXAPZneDBxl5hI3pPwjoD3iw1LMzQhLsi6_7Rw9ZjxRx4A6DIwpYHd6ndd7qW6JQMlox05ZEu0VtKcQfQIajdKkeKK2vlC1Na-KYixGBe1Y3Q/s1600/fallred3.jpg" /></a></div><br />I used a creamy matelasse runner with a paisley runner on top.

I actually bought the plates to put candles in then thought they would be great salad plates.
