Fall Table Runner and Changes in the Dining Room

 Good Monday Morning ! Hope you had a great weekend !
I decided that I needed something on my dining room table, so I made this easy table runner.

 I used some plaid homespun fabric, and cut two strips of burlap to fit . I sewed the ends together and turned it right side out and sewed the hems on each end . Then I sewed the burlap on.

 I cut felt oak leaves ..I found a pattern on the internet and then enlarged it to make the shadow. I used 2 different bron colors.

 I took gold puffy fabric paint and used it for the veins on the leaves and to make swirl designs on the burlap.

 Now for the changes in the dining room, on Thursday my daughter and I went to 2 estate sales.

 At the first one we didn't get much , she got a candle stick and I got some Christmas floral pics and red check ribbon.

 At the second estate sale there was a set of the exact dishes I wanted for my hutch ! I tried to resist but they came home with me ! :) I also got that copper bucket $ 2.50 ! , and stuck the rooster and some fall berry pics in it.

 They were $30.00 for the set of 8 place settings plus 2 large serving bowls, 2 small serving bowls and a platter. They are off white with a little antiquing around the edges.

 On our way home I googled them and I got a fabulous deal ! The platter and big mixing bowls are $22.00 a piece .. A place setting is $55.00 ! I was so excited we had to come home and immediately fill up that hutch !

 It was so nice to find exactly what I wanted at such a reasonable price!

 Love estate sales ! And the Good Will! And church rummage sales :) Ok.. all thrifting !

 They look gorgeous in my hutch and I am already deciding what I am going to do with them at Christmas Time !

I have been stitching this Beggars Night by Threadwork Primitives.

Have a wonderful day ! Thanks as always for stopping by and your nice comments !
