Since it's a casual meal, I thought I'd use a simple setting: mix-matched vintage flatware, everyday place-setting, and jars for drinking glasses.

The blue bottle with porcelain cap is vintage and the fabric is actually a skirt that I picked up while thrift shopping.

Come on in and warm yourself up!




I highly recommend his recipe, it's the perfect dish for a cold winter day!

Looks like we were both thinking about chili on a chilly night. You can't beat it! How perfect is the skirt as part of your centerpiece!
ReplyDeleteOK, the next time I need fabric for a small project, I'm heading to the thrift store. I wouldn't have thought of it, and that's really pretty with the warm bowl of chili theme. I also love the look of it with the antlers. Great idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cheerful table you've set for delicous sounding chili! I always love when my husband cooks for me!
ReplyDeleteLove this tablescape. The red and white are so pretty together... also love the deer horns and skirt... very creative.
ReplyDeleteAre the horns real?
