Good morning and happy fall, dear friends! I hope you are enjoying this first week of autumn. I know I am loving the cooler temperatures. Today, I want to invite you in for a cup of tea and a look around my dining room adorned for the season…my favorite season!
Before, we get into the details of the autumn decor, I want to show you my new curtains. Since we moved in, I have been studying this window trying to decide what I wanted to do with it. Window treatments can often be a very costly proposition. You can imagine my joy when I found these blue toile curtains online at an affordable price. They are made of a very nice fabrication and look like a high end custom made curtain. I am over the moon with joy at how these turned out!
For this years autumn decor, I have tried to use what I have on hand and items from nature. We are still being very cautious and staying close to home as much as possible.
For the centerpiece of my dining table, I chose to use my Spode Blue Italian vase and fill it with autumn berries and pheasant feathers. Mr. Bleu loves to pheasant hunt and always saves the feathers for me. I thought that fall would be the perfect opportunity to put them to good use.
Decoupaged pumpkins that I made several years ago flank the Spode vase. It is such an easy project. All you need is a faux pumpkin, some fabric cut into strips, and Mod-Podge. In fact, I made a few more this week for another project. I love pretty fabrics and have a collection of remnants to choose from.
Faux pumpkins, autumn berries, and pheasant feathers adorn the china hutch. I love using traditional fall colors when decorating for the season.
Thank you, sweet friends, for your visits and gracious comments. I hope that you have a most blessed and beautiful day and weekend ahead! Take care!

Hi Penny, I am so sorry that I am so late getting back to you about where I purchased my dining room curtains. They came from Amazon. They are by Maison d' Hermine and come in different toile colors.
Beautiful and elegant! Happy Fall!
Shannon this is so beautiful. Love the fabric covered pumpkins!! You should do a reel or igtv post so we can see how to do it. Thanks for this gorgeous tour – I will definitely steal(borrow) some of these great ideas.
Happy Fall

Beautiful, love the traditional look and dark furniture. You have styled it beautifully.
Good morning, Shannon. Your dining room is gorgeous. I do love your new drapes. I have that pattern in our bedroom drapes. I never grow tired of toile fabric in anything. Your pheasant feathers are wonderful and you have displayed them perfectly.
Enjoy these lovely days, they seem to pass too quickly.
Always a treat to see how you style your home! Those drapes are beautiful and the b&w plates above are gorgeous. Love your Italian dishes accented with those berries. I’ve got to get busy with my Fall decor! Enjoy the season, Shannon ?????
What can I say .. BEAUTIFUL! BEAUTIFUL! Love the nature look for Fall. Glad you found those pretty curtains.
Fall has arrived in your dining room! And your window treatments are perfect. The addition of blue and white dishes above the window adds such a lovely touch. It’s all so beautiful. Sitting in here having tea with you was such a delight.
Fall in all it's glory has definitely arrived in your dining room Shannon! I love the feathers mixed in with the fall branches, and so stunning in your blue & white vase surrounded by your decoupaged pumpkins! Your side board shelves look like a magazine or store display, beautiful!
Love the new toile window treatments. Your hutch looks ready for the season.
Enjoy your day!
