Jade at Apples & Oranges is the best when it comes to centerpieces. She is celebrating the cool temps and sunshine yellow mini mums.
At The Lettered Cottage Layla has taken a simple bouquet and styled her dining room. Of course as a future Design Star... that is what she does best. Don't forget to vote for her!!
Kimba has taken an idea from Rachel Ray. Mismatched glasses and votive candles become a fall centerpiece.
Sandy says she is a Reluctant Entertainer, but no one would know. I love the way she can take such a simple setting and make a place to entertain!Wait~ I had it all wrong! Sandy's blog is 'For Reluctant Entertainers'. DUH! I guess I should have guessed that~ she has the most brilliant ideas. I have her on my fresh blog roll now... we can keep a check on her ideas!
My centerpiece for the month is just a casual collection out on our sun porch.
This just shows that you don't have to have anything fancy to be a centerpiece of the month.
Jerry said that I have even shamed him into centerpieces!
What do y'all have on your table?
Send me a photo!

Hey Sandi - thanks for including me. What a fun, fun post! BTW, my blog is "4 Reluctant E's" and I am def. NOT a reluctant entertainer but I love to encourage those who are! Woo Hoo.
Happy September!
Oh my goodness! Thank you SO much for choosing my bouquet! This is so cool!
I just called my Mom (who put it together for me) and left her a message...she's gonna be so flattered. :-)

Sandy~ duh... now I get it! For reluctant entertainers... not four reluctant entertainers. That makes total sense!
Layla~ You are so cool... you make it look so simple.
Hi Sandi, these look fabulous! I'll have a couple for September! If I can remember to send them!
Hmm - if I had known that you were going to do that I might have arranged the bloody flowers! LOL
What great ideas, especially Kimba's!
Hugs!

Love all of them! What a fun idea!
These look great! I'm excited for fall so I'll keep the CP's coming :)

Thank you for hosting this little spot of inspiration, it is amazing to see what people do with their space, often with bits & pieces gathered from that have meaning and symbolism to them. Really talented displays.
Those centerpieces are beautiful...makes me wanna think of a reason to have a dinner party.

Hi Sandi,
Fantastic center pieces, as always. Just had to tell you - last weekend on the way to Jacksonville, we stopped on Hwy 301 near Cross Creek to buy produce from a roadside market and guess what they were selling right there next to the tomatoes. Thats right! WhistleStop batter mixes. I took pictures to email you. Ya'll are everywhere!

Pearl~ I love seeing the inspiration too.
DariusT~ any reason for a celebration.
Janette~ thank you for the honor!
Rivermist~ thanks for stopping in at the cafe.
Holley~ If we were EVERYWHERE, I'd be at the beach!!
I always enjoy looking at COTM. Lots of creative ideas. I'll participate again soon Sandi, but want you to know I always appreciate this post.
