Scarecrows on a Fall Tablescape

I have been trying to do a Fall scarecrow themed tablecape for the past three years and I could never find everything that I wanted for the tablescape until this year. I have always loved scarecrows, especially ones that have cute faces. I bought the heavy cotton green and white gingham tablecloth several years ago on Amazon. I love it when the seasons change and I can leave the themes for one season and move on to the next. You can see all of my different tablescapes (270+, a new one every week), read about everything that is on each tablescape and where it all came from on my blog here: https://www.whispersoftheheart.com/tablescapes .

I adore this cute scarecrow design! Several years ago I found three scarecrow salad plates that I really liked and I have been looking for three plates to match them ever since with no luck. I am still looking! In the meantime I found this metal scarecrow sign on Etsy and when I saw it I knew that I could set it on a small plate for my scarecrow tablescape. I just love this little scarecrow with all the fall colors.

I can’t remember where I bought this small orange glass plate but it may have been HomeGoods. It is not marked.

This green dinner plate was called Fun Factory and it was made by Waechtersbach. I have had them for several years and I can’t remember where I bought them. The color was called Apple Green.

This orange glass charger was made by Bormioli Rocco and I think the pattern was called Inca. It is well made and heavy glass. I have bought it in a few other colors as well over the years. I found them on Amazon several years ago. I do have to use a placemat when I use these glass chargers because the pattern on the tablecloth would show through if I didn’t.

This orange place mat and several others like it in other colors came from Pier 1 several years ago.

I have this Ginkgo International Le Prix flatware in black, red, and green and I added yellow and this color called persimmon a few years ago. I can’t remember where I bought this flatware set online but if you google it, something will probably pop up. I like this flatware design because it is a bit more informal like my tablescapes style. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying flatware here.

I think these orange cotton napkins probably came from Pier 1 or HomeGoods several years ago. I love the bright orange color, it’s a perfect color for Halloween tablescapes. These resin scarecrow napkin rings came from Ebay a few months ago. To read about the what, where and how of napkin rings please click here.

I found these tiny resin scarecrows on Ebay. I set them on a small orange plastic place card holder that I have. To read about the What, Where and When of place card holders, please click here.

I think I bought these orange glass goblets at Ross or T.J. Maxx. They were some of the first goblets that I bought many years ago. I remember thinking that I would probably not use them that much but I have, especially this time of year. Dollar stores often have plastic goblets from time to time and they have glass goblets too. I bought the green acrylic goblets a couple years ago online at Home Depot. They are made by Certified International and they come in other colors too. This green is a great basic green color if you are looking for a green goblet to start your tablescaping collection. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying goblets for your tablescaping collection including the colors that I use most often here.

I love Jim Shore designs and this scarecrow, a retired design, is a favorite of mind. It was part of the Heartwood Creek series in 2005 and it was called Open Star, Keeping Watch, from Enesco. I bought it on the secondary market but I can’t remember where. Jim Shore’s designs are so detailed and I love the way he uses color in unexpected ways.

These small wooden scarecrow figures were made by Doublefill and they came from Amazon. There were six different scarecrows in each set. I set some of them back to back on this tablescape.

I am hoping to see some scarecrows this season!
