Found these very ugly cheese trays at the thrift store. They are the same size even though the picture makes them look weird.
Gave em' a good cleaning
I also found these white plates there. They will get me through any holiday. Love em'. I paid about .75 cents for them...sweet!
Didnt want to spend any on placemats and when you have to buy 6 it does add up. I just turned my old ones over.... new look!
Remember all of those Dollar Tree pumpkins I told yall about. Where this is what I did with mine.
Added that ugly little cheese tray dome.... beautiful!
I mixed and matched all of my pumpkins cause that's what fall is all about to me. Color....
I didnt have enough glass domes to go around and thats ok too. I will have fun adding to my collection. I wont even worry if they dont match. Thats the joy of it! I'm having a monogram "H" put on each napkin but I couldnt wait to show yall. Im also going to add some pretty glasses too. I will show yall when it's all done. I have just missed yall so much . Im off to clean my yard some... Ick!
Your table is gorgeous! I think I saw the exact same cheese tray at Goodwill yesterday! I love what you did with the DT pumpkins. I've yet to do anything with mine and I ran all over 3 towns trying to find them. :o)
ReplyDeleteWhat's the news with Ike? I hope you guys are out of the line of fire...
Susie your tablescape is beautiful. You have the neatest ideas...Thanks for sharing..I know I will be looking for cheese trays later on today.
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty! I went a got us some fall stuff yesterday to start decorating!
ReplyDeleteCUTE. I really guess it's about time I get some of those dollar store pumpkins!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so pretty, you have such great ideas. I'm struggling trying to do some fall decorating, your creativity just inspired me!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you made it through Gustav, what a pain, being without power! And all the extra work that comes with it!
Hi Susie,
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL, as always!! Ever since I found my first cheese tray I have been on the hunt for them cause I LOVE the cloche thing!! My FABULOUS Dollar Tree pumpkins are mixed all in with my decorations. As a matter of fact, there are two in my post from last night!! I also see some new tassels....of course, I have to go check them out....bye for now.....
Susie, It is so good to have you back! ...sharing your beautiful creativeness! What a lovely tablesetting! :) ~Rhonda

Brilliant idea with the cheese domes. ;)
ReplyDeleteHi Susie! I'm guessing your household is up and running now that you're posting pretties again! I love what you've done with these little pumpkins and your table looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia :)
I would love to be able to decorate my table like that. My table is currently staged since we are selling our house,but I would love a formal dining room that I can keep staged.
ReplyDeleteLove the pumpkins!
Dear Sweet Miz Susie,
ReplyDeleteYou have been missed so much! Imagine my delight to see that you've updated your blog, I was fearing you wouldn't for quite some time *smiles* What a gorgeous table setting you've created! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it, simply beautiful, simply Susie! Can't wait to see the rest of the special touches you've mentioned.
*hugs*
Hi Susie,
ReplyDeleteI passed up one of those cheese trays the other day!
I may try to go back and see if by chance it's there!
Love your fall tablescape and so glad you are posting again.

That's a great idea to put the cheese dome on a white plate--I have a cheese dome I have stashed away because I'm still searching for a glass plate to do a different project...but your post fired up my creative juices. Thanks, Susie!

Just beautiful! I love the pumpkins under the cloches. So pretty and creative!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I love your ideas. I don't have much money, but I do love our thrift store. It's got to have cheese domes.
ReplyDeleteSimply adorable! I love the mismatched look anyway - you are just so creative. I love coming by to see what you're gonna do next. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your fall table...Thanks for sharing your ideas...I need the inspiration! Blessings, Nancy
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how beautiful $1 pumpkins can look in the right hands! : ) I just got a Ballard catalog that I'm going to look through to see what ideas I can steal.
ReplyDeleteAll of it looks lovely...
ReplyDeleteI missed your last post...boy did those pictures look familiar...Years ago, 89 or so, we were hit hard by HUGO...pine trees popping off and uprooted tremendous Oak trees...messy yards...lost power for 3 weeks...yes 3 weeks...it just devistated all of SC and took a while to get things running again...the yard work took forever to finish...just take your time..it'll get done...ya'll are lucky...and hopefully this next one will miss you...looks like it so far:)
It looks like life may be getting back to normal for you - I am so glad. I think about you and your family everytime they talk about the storms on the news.
ReplyDeleteI love the cheese tray domes. And I see a trip to the dollar store in my near future.
Smiles, JoAnne
Stunning, my dear! I'm thinking that I might have to copy that idea for my Thanksgiving table setting.
ReplyDeleteHey, maybe you can use that creative mind of yours to make some fall decor with Gustav debris. ;~)
I am now on a mission for ugly cheese trays. LOL Thanks for the idea. The tablescapes look great.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love that they don't all match.
Variety is the spice of life, afterall.
Hi Susie! Your table looks great! I love the black and white and orange together. Those were some great thrift store finds! Hope the clean up is going well!
ReplyDeleteHey Pioneer woman! That looks absolutely beautiful. I love what you did with the cheese dome. They always seem to have one at the thrift store, I need to get some. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Debbie
I'm not one to keep my table set, but I LOVE this idea! I actually bought 3 of those pumpkins at our dollar store and think I'll go back and get some more to fill the place settings at our dining room table. What a great idea!!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite things--cloches and pumpkins! They look spectacular, Susie!
ReplyDeleteAWESOME! I have a homes cheese tray that I like but don't use very often. I am going to get it out!
ReplyDeleteVery clever! I did something similar last week with old cheese domes that I'm going to upload to my blog either today or tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThrifty minds think alike! :)
Pretty, Pretty, Susie! I looked all over for those white pumpkins you showcased from the Dollar Tree (3 stores!) and nada here. But my friend, Judy, found some for me down in her neck of the woods, so I'll be getting a few myself.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful that you took the time to indulge your busy soul with some thrifty decorating! Looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you and yours,
Oh how fun. I love it.
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative..
Becky
Very cool!! I love all of your ideas!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I'm glad to see you back.
ReplyDeleteI finally went to a dollar store today. I was looking for the white ceramic pumpkins, alas, none. They did have the small orange ones though. I should have taken your advice earlier.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is a struggle to get back to normal, I don't know why. But thank you God, that Ike is not headed our way. I'm praying for Texans right now!
So pretty. I love the cheese domes~ and the pumpkins underneath ...brilliant!
ReplyDeletecute cute I love those domes they look great!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this idea. I will head to the thrift store this weekend looking for cheese trays....already have pumpkins!
ReplyDeleteGood idea with the cheese trays. I have two of those and don't know what to do with them. I love those dollar pumpkins. I just have mine scattered around the house. Everything you do looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteGlad all is well. We in San Antonio area are getting ready for IKE. A bunch of people from Corpus are coming to stay in the schools here for refuge. These hurricanes just turn the place upside down!
You'll be seeing those cheese domes more and more at goodwill because they were all the rage when I got married almost 30 years ago. We got three of them as gifts and returned them all.It's about time for people my age to be cleaning out the home they raised their children in and moving on so those old gifts are about to become thrift store finds. I love what you did with them.
ReplyDeleteGlad things are looking up at your house.

Hey Sweetie...yes, come join us in Oxford for Thanxgiving weekend! We'll still love ya even though you must be Tiger fans. My sweet neighbor acroos the street, we tease him by putting on OLE MISS t-shirts on his BIG WOODEN TIGER! All in good fun, we adore him!
ReplyDeleteLove ya, hope you are all doing well!
XOXO
Lovely table setting Susie! Rachaelxo
ReplyDeleteI love how simple and cute the table setting is. You girls really know how to use old things in a new way. I need to start doing this. :-)
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative! I'm always amazed when I see the good buys you find and then what you are able to do with them!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a sweet and creative table setting! I have a couple of those cheese tray cloches, and if I can find some little pumpkins, I'm going to totally copy you.
ReplyDeleteI love that you just turned your placemats over! Those cheese trays are everywhere and I like how you used the domes. Beautiful tablescape!
ReplyDeleteManuela
I'm new to your blog, but I love this idea.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so festive!
Susie, this is a table after my own heart! It's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGreat post.
Pat, "the dishaholic"
What a great idea!!! I can't wait to see the monogrammed napkins. I am so glad that you weathered the storm. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fall table. I have checked several Dollar Trees and I am not finding any more pumpkins. Wish I had gotten a few more white ones. I will be out of town again Tues and will try one more time. Cute idea with the domes.
ReplyDeleteHow creative!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!
Awesome idea! Thanks for inspiring us :)
ReplyDeletewhat a unique idea!! love it, and I'm missing you. Glad you're still among us :) look forward to seeing more pics!
