Fall Dinner Party Part II


Hello there lovelies!

This past week I shared the first part of my dinner party series including the menu, the inspiration. Today, it's all about the tablescapes, the centerpieces, and favors! Oh I LOVE favors and especially the handmade kind- they are so much more special than anything store bought. 

Creating a tablescape isn't that intimidating at all and in fact you can use whatever you have on hand. There's no need to go buy colored linens or spend a lot of money. If you have a white/cream colored table cloth, use it! Then layer that with some orange or yellow votives down the length of the table. You can find votives anywhere and to add a special touch tie a ribbon around the votive. Try an orange candle with a light green ribbon or a red candle with a mustard yellow ribbon.

Fall is such a special time of year and it's the best time to gather with your friends and family! So why not throw a small dinner party? There's nothing better than having a fun time with your closest friends enjoying good food, drinks and a fabulous time! So maybe you don't like to stress over a party or feel like you're in over your head well don't worry because I think that a party hostess should be stress free the entire night! I have always loved planning parties and today you'll be getting a glimpse into my dinner party ideas for fall. This is part one of my fall dinner party that includes my inspiration, and the menu.
