Savoring the Colors of Autumn

MacKenzie-Childs Wittika Peanuts 

offers a perfect compliment to autumn. 

This simple but charming pattern named for 

Wittika MacKenzie-Chaplet, granddaughter of Victoria and

Richard MacKenzie-Childs was introduced in 1999.

I've long admired American red ware pottery,

so this older MKC version enchants my 

MacKenzie-Childs sensibilities..

The Wittika series was offered in three color ways.

~ Peanuts ~ Pickles ~ Picts  ~

I think the Peanuts is a perfect partner for my 

Nicole Miller beaded sunflower placemats

atop folded plaid napkins to introduce a touch of gray.

Then I could easily bring in these 

simple striped Crown Linen Design napkins.

The final touch to the plate stack, 

classically elegant pumpkins!

A natural gourd with beribboned stem among

fall leaves served as an easy, no fuss centerpiece.

The colorful leaves may be faux, but with natural leaves,

burr oak acorns, and seedpods added to the mix, 

it all yields an organic feel.

I'm savoring these last days of autumn and

not yet ready to Fa La La just yet.
