Pheasant Fest!

After an unplanned blogging break, I am ready to show you my newest Fall tablescape, that I am calling Pheasant Fest!
I started with off white table cloth which I layered with my paper runner. I got this years ago at Civil-La-Tea in Gettysburg and I still love it. It has Chinese lantern plants all over it.
At each place, I started with a wooden charger which I topped with Spode Woodland with the Pheasant. I used green and pewter goblets and a bronze colored napkin with a coppery leaf napkin ring. And I added a little gourd-covered goodie bag and each place also.
For my centerpiece, I used a mini cake plate to elevate my Fitz and Floyd Pheasant teapot and surrounded it with a silk leaf garland and scattered some glass pine cone ornaments around.
I added Fitz and Floyd Pheasant candleholders with Indian Corn candles to light the table and some Bobwhite salt and pepper shakers, also from Fitz and Floyd.
Over at the tea cart, I have a cornucopia tea set and pumpkin tea towel to add to the Fall mood.
And on the mantle, Turkey sit among Chinese Lantern Plants and bittersweet branches.
On the Hanging Shelf, more turkey have gathered to celebrate the autumnal season.
I will be linking to Tablescape Thursday at Between Naps on the Porch.

Oh!!!!! I love the pheasants! Such a beautiful fall table. I love Thanksgiving and this is the kind of look I want after Halloween is over. I can keep my ironstone and ghost pumpkins and add some pheasant things and MAYBE it will be as gorgeous as yours. I'm following now, by the way!

Love your Victorian house. Beautiful harvest tablesetting. What a joy it must be to decorate in that formal dining area, and then sit down to eat in one of those red velvet chairs. Delightful. Thanks for posting and inspiring. Thanks also for leaving a comment on my post.~CJ

What a beautiful backdrop for your lovely table! I bet that tea cart has some history--so unique! And, you are the first person I've met who has a turkey collection! I have been seeing some wonderful ones in the stores this fall. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us!
