Playing in My Dining Room

I wasn't going to decorate my dining table this year but thought, why not.  In the past I usually just stuck a floral arrangement on the table and called it a day.  But not anymore, how could I ever post a little arrangement on a huge table while all of you lovely ladies have created the most gorgeous tablescapes and vignettes.  So I decided to take out my pumpkin scarecrow doll friend, Glinda.  We named her after the good Witch from the North, even though she in not a witch.  Whatever the boys say, mom does!

What a great inspiration she was for this project.  She came from Marshall's a few years ago.  I just love these Halloween dolls and buy a new one every year for my collection.....like I need another collection!  Look how proud she is sitting propped up on ceramic bowl full of black and ivory flowers.  She likes to be the center of attention!

So much for keeping it simple this year.  I seem to start out with simple intentions but often get carried away.  Anyway, while browsing the isles of the Dollar Tree I found these adorable squeaky rats and big black crows.  It's amazing what you can get at that store for a few dollars.  They were actually selling them at the register, how could I resist!

EEEEEK......

I moved my cloche with the white pumpkin from the buffet onto the table and scattered some little orange pumpkins around.

I really love black and white with the pops of orange...it seems to work really well with all of the blues in my home.

Thanks so much for stopping by, will be partying with,
