Falling Leaves & a Rustic Centerpiece

The sky is falling, the sky is falling.

Remember Chicken Little?

That confused little chick who thought the world was coming to an end.

Poor girl was foolish enough to follow the crowd.

What does this have to do with fall centerpieces you may be asking yourself?

But you know the ending of this story isn’t a happy one.

After watching her friends, including Henny Penny, get gobbled up by that foxy family,

she fled back home never to be heard from again.

I hear that just the rustle of leaves gives her nightmares nowadays.

By the way, I got those cute leaves from the dollar store and the “tablecloth” is actually netting used by landscapers!

I think Foxy Loxy would approve.

  1. Love the rustic look of your table decorations
    Is that real bittersweet branches? Love the bittersweet for fall.
    Tip in using the real bittersweet as decoration:…… spray heavily with an inexpensive hair spray before adding the branches to arrangements. The hair spray will hold the berries in place longer.

  2. I love that netting, Who knew landscapers do, too? Your fall colours are inspiring me to get started… I haven’t done a thing yet :-O

  3. Hi there- I love the old tool box – you’ve inspired me to go and get somethings out and do a little decorating (even though we are still hip deep in bathroom renovations). I can still make a pretty spot in the middle of the chaos, right?!

  4. I think your fall look is very pretty. I have a tool box like that so you have given me an idea of what to do with it. Thanks! You have visited Cozy Home Scenes in the past but I had to close that blog so you can find me at A COZY PLACE CALLED HOME. Hope to see you there!—— Shannon
