In recent weeks on my morning walk,
I've noticed small volunteer vines of Morning Glories
trailing through beds of flowers and climbing up branches of trees.
These pretty blooms with their heart shaped leaves
are trailing gently through the bed along our front walk.

These delicate blooms prompted me to snip a
few of the vines and set a morning table.
I started with a favorite fall textile,
the MacKenzie-Childs Vendage tablecloth.
The rich hues within the botanical inspired design are set
off with a border of my favorite Courtly Checks.
I tossed on a wool throw to add texture and a touch more blue.
Vintage French demi-Johns came home with
me from a previous trip to France.
A pair of blue gray pumpkins with golden stems
offered a welcome to the fall season that
officially begins on September 23 this year.
I added a Courtly Check charger and
mug for my morning coffee.
The majolica leaf plate, sourced from some antique market years
past, is a vintage piece by Jamison Ceramics, Capristano, CA.
It provided the perfect little touch for my morning treat
~ a pumpkin spice scone.
Silver flatware with "French ivory" handles
added a touch of elegance.
My favorite morning
Cafe de Cuba filled the mug.
Such an elegant way
to start my day!
It all made for a cozy morning table out on the terrace.
A Morning Glory Table to welcome a new season. ~
