Fall Table Decor Ideas......

I have always loved decorating with things that are easy to come by.  Twigs, leaves, fruit, glass plates and cotton fabrics.  This fall table setting was created with things you probably already have or can easily find.  I love altering dollar store glass plates the most.  Last year I used butterflies and birds.  This year I'm decorating with leaves from my back yard.  Make sure to watch the video to see exactly how it's done, OK!  Happy Fall, everyone.
