Spooky Town

The raven feather wreath beckons you in...

 

Welcome to Spooky Town, our annual Halloween tablescape in the dining room.

Spiders and Crows Invade Halloween

We hadn't had a special All Hallow's Eve dinner since.....I don't know when! So I thought I'd pull together an elegant tablescape for the holiday.  I set it for four, to allow the table to be lit only by candles. 

Casual Fall Setting in the Breakfast Room

Well, the calendar says mid-October, but it still feels like late summer here in north Georgia! Temperatures during the day still hover in the 80s, but the evenings have been cooler.  So I decided that it's time to begin acknowledging the calendar by designing the table in the breakfast room for fall.

The day was overcast -- disappointing for the photos.

Through the Glass, Darkly

My family and I spent last Saturday night at the Atlanta Botanical Garden experiencing the glass works of Dale Chihuly, a master of glass and neon sculptures.  You first encounter his breathtaking "chandelier" entering the Visitor Center.
