I'm a HUGE fan of autumn but this year, despite the intense heat and humidity, I'm a little hesitant for summer to end. Of course in the Nashville area, it really doesn't end until mid-October so I'm "good" for a while. The point of all this musing.....to give a preface to a tablescape I like to call -"Do Go Gently into a Good Fall." (my apologies to Dylan Thomas)
That's it. Nothing fancy, I just love the combination of greens and browns. A simple setting for a simple time of year. For more tablescaping madness, join Susan at Between Naps on the Porch!
Warning: You will be seeing a lot of candles at The Ranch this Fall/Winter to calm the pyromaniac in me. The landlord agreed to have the chimney swept and the results, unless he forks out some big bucks to restore this 40 year old, neglected chimney/fire box, we are considered quite a fire hazard! Dangit! For me, fires in the fireplace are a big part of celebrating the chilly seasons! However, candlelight can be very kind to 48 year old women. There's always a bright side!

A very pretty table and I, too, love that combination!
And it goes so well with that blue and whtie in the background!
Ahhh, your sophisticated eye is on a roll tonight. This is a four seasons tablescape! Love the use of the apple green and the brown. I hope that the landlord steps up and heals your chimney! Perhaps a chiminea on the porch? Thanks for sharing your charming design. Cherry Kay
The green is pretty against the white. Well done. hugs♥olive
What a pretty setting! You have a lovely dining room and those curtains are to die for! I am a follower!
So lovely. I love the lime green color. It looks so fresh. Your tablescape is beautiful and I also LOVE your buffet display with all the beautiful blue and white. Lovely. Hugs, Marty
Very elegant! I love, really love all your gorgeous blue & white!
Love this table and color scheme. I just bought a table runner and have a round table. Yours looks so good that I am heartily encouraged to use mine.
Time to get the chimney sweep here too! I can't wait until we can use our fireplace (though it's in the 90s here in upstate NY!!)
Pretty table! It would be inviting any season of the year. ~ Sarah
A clean and simple table - I love it. Your greens are calming and your table is perfect.
I love candlelight, too. Kinder to the housekeeping as well as the housekeeper!
Stunning color combination. It came together very beautifully. congrats!
Lovely and simply elegant!
Yeah, yeah, this is all groovy and stuff. So where is the FOOD?
It looks great, and the green looks amazing with the blue and white in the background.
Have a great weekend,

So pretty! I love the crisp, clean lines, the freshness of the greens, and the warmth of the dark browns. I love the glow of candlelight, and your positive attitude is inspiring!
Have a great weekend!
