Fall Dining Room and Two Cross Stitch Finishes

Good Morning.. Hope you are all having a great week so far!

 

When we remodeled our living room / dining room , we got a new dining room set. I hadn't decorated the shelves of the hutch until yesterday .. My daughter was digging around in our basement and found some of my old dishes. They are cream colored  Pfaltzgraff  with grapes and leaves..I wanted plain cream ones to display but these are free :) .

 

 I added the decomesh garland I had made for over our foyer mirror, but that got taken down with the remodel , so it fits perfectly over the hutch. Its dark brown decomesh, burlap ribbon, sunflowers , berries and leaves,,

 I moved the Pumpkin cottage cross stitch piece from the foyer and added a silver tray with a glitter pumpkin , sunflowers and dried hydrangea.

 I added a couple pumpkins, pumpkin plates , a vintage blue mason jar, and a basket of dried hydrangeas to the inside of the hutch.

 A little fall vignette on the server.. plates stacked with a pumpkin, ivy, sunflowers, and those green floral balls, in a wrought iron basket.

On the table is a big cloche with pumpkins , lace, dried hydrangeas and berries on a silver tray.

I had finished stitching 2 fall cross stitch pieces , I found the frame below at the good will, for $3.99. I took out the glass and just left the frame and matting in . II then attatched the stitching to foam board and glued it to the frame mat. I wrapped a piece of twine around the bottom and glued twine to a button to make a flower.This stitching is a free pattern from with thy needle and thread blog . I love how it turned out.

 

 
 
 

 
 

For the next stitched piece, Homespun Elegance , delivering Autumn.. , I bought a cutout wood shape at Michaels. I painted it with chalkboard paint . Then glued the stitched piece to the chalkboard and added some doodles with chalk. I love how they both turned out.

 

Thanks as always for your visits and nice comments ! Have a great day !
