I changed the dining area for fall before hosting a dinner with homemade spaghetti sauce. An open barnwood frame gave my seasonal plates a new setting, and china passed down from my mom became part of the table.
A stained frame replaced the old plate arrangement
Plates had been arranged around the window, but I wanted a change. I bought an open barnwood frame and stained it. That gave me a place to switch plates with the seasons.
A pumpkin candleholder and family china
The pumpkin candleholder came from Walmart. The white bone china was made in Poland and passed down to me by my mom.
I bought six forks and six knives at World Market, along with the napkins. The chargers came from Walmart. Together, these pieces made a fall table for a dinner we enjoyed with friends.
A seasonal change outside too
I replaced the outdoor umbrella for fall and winter. At the time, I bought one each year and waited for end-of-season clearance.

My plate decorating story explains why plates keep appearing in my rooms. For a different seasonal table, see the Christmas dinette arrangement.
