Bright colors, mixed with neutrals say, “I see you Autumn, but I’m squeezing out every last ounce of summer’s brightness before we go!”
Centerpieces don’t have to be elaborate. Needing something fast and that didn’t require leaving the house, I pilfered the shrubs for plant life. Stemless wine glasses made for quick casual vases and also kept the arrangement low, to promote conversation.
Living items add a dynamic element to any display. Repetition creates movement, and a metal tray grounds the arrangement.
A simple napkin pocket is a nice way to gather flatware when place mats are narrow.
(Sigh) Until next year fair season . . .
