“Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭34:13‬ ‭

Hello dear friends! Can you believe we will be saying goodbye to October this week? I am always a little melancholy to see my favorite month slip away. But, I do look forward to Thanksgiving, a holiday filled with family, food, and hearts overflowing with the knowledge of God’s abundant gifts!

“In the entire circle of the year there are no days so delightful as those of a fine October.”
-Alexander Smith

Blue-and-white is classic! It works for every season, even autumn!

I love pairing it with this plaid tablecloth in autumnal hues of rust and gold!READ MORE

“A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭17:22‬ ‭

Hello sweet friends! I hope all of you are finally enjoying some beautiful autumn weather. I am joining a group of creative table stylists to bring you a week-long Halloween Tablescape Hop hosted by the talented Chloe @ Celebrate & Decorate. I am at the picnic table with no tricks, just sweet treats!

I have loved setting tables for more years than I can count…

…Everyday Living even began as a place to share tablescapes and over the past five years there have been more than 250 tablescapes. But I must confess that today is a first…it is my very first Halloween tablescape!!!

You will find all of the links for Halloween tablescape inspiration at the bottom of this post.READ MORE

“But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40:31‬ ‭ 

Hello dear readers and welcome October! Be sure to read to the bottom of this post for the winner of our giveaway. This is my favorite month of the year for so many different reasons. We will celebrate my precious Daddy’s 89th birthday this coming Sunday at our home. My birthday comes at the end of the month, and if you saw Sunday’s post you saw my fabulous early birthday surprise from Renaissance Man! I love October, not just for birthday celebrations, but because it is the month that leaves begin their colorful display of reds, golds, and oranges. The sky turns to a brilliant shade of blue and the autumn light is magical. And of course, I love all things pumpkin! Join me at the table as we welcome October!

“I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”

Using the warm colors of autumn, I set my garden table for a late afternoon dinner.
