Fall Cloche Party - 88th TTT - Burlap Bag Winner

Yip-Skip!!!!!!  It is time for our FALL CLOCHE PARTY.  I can't wait to see everything you guys have created.  I am always so totally inspired and in awe. 

I think you have seen most everything that I have done recently.  I've tried to keep them really simple to show you how pretty anything looks under a cloche and you don't have to have any special talent to decorate with one.

This is my dining room buffet.  I love using some of my silver and this really huge cloche is always so fun to play with.


Just a few pumpkins, gourds, acorns and some fall leaves and that's it.



A silver cream and sugar on a tray, candelabra and my champagne bucket floral arrangement and I called it good.


Of  course the kitchen got a couple of changes too.  I left the vignettes the same, just changed what was under the cake cloche.


A DT pumpkin, pod, wheat, pinecones and autumn leaves and it looks like Fall.



The floral pumpkin stalk ties in really well with the cakestand and completes the whole Fall look.

On this side of the ocunter, my wonderful rooster cloche got a couple of fall items too.


Some mums, pinecones and an acorn and it is done.



You don't have to do anything really big to have a cloche be fun and look really great in any vignette. 

Now I can't wait to see all of you guys creations.

DRUM ROLL PLEASE!!!!  Since we had so many that entered the giveaway for the Burlap Coffee bag, I decided to include the one I bought for me.  Both bags are just alike, so we have two winner, and they are - - -

Kim @ Cheap Chic Home

and

Sharon @ Elizabeth & co.

If you will email me your address at astrollthrulife@ live.com, I will get them in the mail right away.

Thanks to everyone who entered, but be sure to check back on Wednesday, I have another absolutely magnificent giveaway that I am sure you will want.  It is really special.

    Marty -- since you announced this party I've been on the lookout for an inexpensive cloche. I've always wanted them and I thought this was a sign that I finally had to buy one. Sadly, no cloche bargains to be found yet. I linked up two table-top related posts, but they are cloche-free. Hope that is okay :)

    I absolutely love your cloches and your beautiful photos!

    Thanks for hosting & Happy Halloween!

    Thanks for hosting, Marty! You always do the best cloche displays; it is so apt that you host this party! I love the display with the cloche on the silver tray. It just goes so well with your other silver pieces. Love the cake stand. I have one similar in color and detail but the top part is metal and not glass. Didn't even think to include that and I did stick some Fall decor underneath it.

    I'm hoping to get more inspiration from the party and I am, of course, already thinking ahead to what I can display for Christmas! : )

    You always have pretty cloches, Marty. I decided to make a cloche centerpiece when you said anything could go under a cloche. Fall for our family includes several days at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair and so my cloche is dairy inspired. Thanks for the encouragement and for hosting.
