Autumn Spode Reynolds Tablescape

Our great-niece is attending the local University (Humboldt State University is the northern-most California campus and is located just north of where I live. It sits among the Redwoods right near the Pacific coast - both Pat and I attended the school, albeit more than fifty years ago....) Anyway, Maya dropped by to visit this week and instantly "fell" into tablescaping. She was here for hours playing with dishes and having a great time with "the old aunts." Here's a table she helped design:

Flatware is "Sofia" by Hampton Forge

Once again, Pat turned to one of her very favorites for glassware - from the Dollar Tree

The charger is Spode "Vermicelli"

The centerpiece is a used olive jar filled with curly stems from Pat's yard and silk greenery surrounded by a grapevine garland, grapes and wine corks

Pat used small glass jars filled with wine corks to raise the candles

One last look
