I used a machine crocheted table runner instead of a tablecloth. I also used the woven chargers from World Market.
I was drawn to the glassware not only because they are green, but the bubble/crackle appearance.
The salad plate is Sterling in brown and cream. The soup bowl is Johnson Bros. Snowhite Regency.
I have once again used my Oneida Louisiana flatware.
While I was setting the table Mystic was perched on the hutch watching to make sure it was done to her satisfaction!
Thanks for taking the time to visit today. Hope you will return again.

love you,

One of my favorite tablescapes as I adore plaid, scalloped dishes and particularly love the scalloped bowl. Have never figured out how you can do week after week of gorgeous settings. bbb
Love the table runner. It allows you to show off your table, and really compliments the colors in the dishes, etc. It is always a surprise to see what you have as your centerpiece. This time, the cookbooks were the surprise added touch! Have a fantastic day! Your friend, Sue Z.
I like that idea of using the stacked books in the center piece...nice. I might have to steal it. Blessings!
Hi, Marigene!!! So your "supervisor" approved? I do, too! :-) I love the runner!!! It's perfect for tying the whole setting together. Your china is just gorgeous, and the "Louisiana" flatware works so well with it. I had my eye on that pattern a number of years ago. I got something else instead, and I have regretted it almost every day since! REALLY cool to use the books as a riser! I wish you and your sweet hubby the very best of the Thanksgiving holiday!
Every single component is beautiful.
Your supervisor seems to be thinking it over.
The flatware is so classic -- I have always like this pattern.
So pretty! Love the details!
I love the Wedgewood. Your Fall table is beautiful Marigene.
Your choice of using the Wedgwood "Wildbriar" china is perfect for a fall tablescape. I like how you layered the different patterns of china in the place setting. The gorgeous runner is lovely with your centerpiece! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Thanks, Pam
Lovely neutral table. I love those creams, browns and grays..as in cat :)
I love the table runner. What a sweet looking kitty too. Dianne
I am so smitten with Mystic! What a beautiful kitty. I almost succumbed to those dishes myself this year. I just love them. The pretty crocheted runner is perfect on the table and allows your centerpieces to show off! Love love this table.. xo marlis
Simple, yet very inviting. Great Fall setting. You never fail to impress and entertain me....always look forward to Tuesdays!

I love your centerpiece... and the runner... and the flatware...and the Wedgwood... well, all of it!
Have a happy Thanksgiving.
Its so nice that Mystic was there - just in case - but it doesn't seem like you probably ever need help! They sure know how to pose though don't they - so that they are blog-worthy as we say!
Your plates are so pretty and they are perfect for fall. I love the books under the centerpiece. They add such warmth. Have a wonderful week!
Love the old books stacked on the table...it's a great touch...Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Gorgeous china! That's a new pattern to me, and the soft colors are just perfect for a fall table. You and I were on the same wavelength this week, with crocheted runners! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Marigene,
Lovely Autumnal tablescape, dear friend!!! I adore the naure inspired centerpiece with pods and gourds!Great use of texture in your chargers, as well! Mystic looks majestic in her statue~like pose as she gives her "purrfect" approval!
Fondly,
Pat
Beautiful setting as usual, Marigene. I love the Wedgwood plates, perfect for fall for sure and those Louisiana flatware look exquisite...Christine
Oh Marigene, don't tell me those gorgeous Wedgewood plates were only 2.99!! I see more dishes I wish I had. Aren't they pretty?? I love your crocheted runner and your simple stack of books with Autumn decor on top.
What a great table! I love your Wedgewood china..so pretty and what a great find at Goodwill! Your glasses are great..I can see them used at Christmas too! I spied your wonderful soup tureen next to your kitty! All great pieces!

Such a pretty table! I love the Wedgwood plates...what a steal!
There's something about using the stack of books as part of your centerpiece....super idea!
All of a sudden I'm seeing some wonderful crocheted pieces on the table and they have given me ideas for how to use the pieces saved from my mother's linen chest. I like how you've added books as part of your centerpiece.
I've been looking for red plaid wrapping paper to cover books as a centerpiece for Christmas. Your china is gorgeous! Wishing you and Howard a Happy Thanksgiving.
I love those plates! Fabulous colors for this time of the year. Those green glasses are pretty darn awesome! Love the centerpiece also. Great Job Marigene! Hugs, Linda
Marigene, I love that Wedgwood pattern. Your table is so pretty, and elevating the bowl with a stack of books is so clever. laurie
I love everything except the cat up on the furniture! Scat!
The china is gorgeous!
I hope you have a wonderful Tgiving and thanks for linking to Let's Dish!
I love the way you used books in your tablescape and your china is beautiful!
