Show Off Your Cottage Monday

Hello to you! And welcome to another "SHOW OFF YOUR COTTAGE MONDAY", a blog party I host at the beginning of each week to celebrate the things we love about our homes and how we live. If you're new here, thanks for stopping by and if you've visited before, thanks for returning!
The House in the Roses

I love to entertain, and especially love the process of putting together a pretty tablescape… In the summer, we stay outside as much as possible, and that means we eat outside a good bit, too. But summer has come to an end around here… so, as I bid adieu to summer and summer settings, I like to go through my old photographs and look at all my pretty table settings; they’d serve as a memory… a memory of lovely summer days spent in the garden with family and friends, and a reminder that we will do that again…

Can't wait to see what you've been doing this week! Last week was another fantastic party! I am enjoying seeing all the creative ideas and projects you are sharing! Here are a few for this week’s review... you are amazing and I wish I could review each and every one of your blogs, but at least here are a few:

An Old Block House shared some very creative Pumpkin Patch for fall color: Aren't these ever so pretty!

My heart's song shared a romantic table for two; love it!

Rustic Art shared some fantastic chandelier transformation!

Ashtree Cottage shared a lovely garden nook to welcome Fall!

I wanted to say welcome new party goers as well as say thank you to every participant and party friends for taking the time to come over and share your wonderful links each week! You’re all such creative souls, and I’m always learning from you!

THANKS SO MUCH!

Rules: Link your post, not the main page of your blog. Please include a link to the party or the party's button in your post. Celebrate life and see how others celebrate theirs by visiting!

    I just love the pretty floral fabric on your bench Cielo, it's so pretty. Reminds me so much of Cabbages and Roses patterns, which I love.
    As always your images are nothing short of amazing, and thank you for hosting such a charming link party.
