Backyard Tablescape perfect for fall: birds and branches

We love birds. We have them scattered through our house, along with bird nests and bird cages. We gathered up all the little birds from around our home and used them in this tablescape. This idea is great for fall because it uses the brown fall colors, but it also adds touches of light blue and green, and pops of red and orange. I have seen birds, feathers and bird cages featured in many weddings, and we love this idea! This can also be used at home as a centerpiece, or for a fall event. Again these were photographed by Kristian McCarley. She is an awesome photographer! If you want her information, let us know.

In this centerpiece, we put flowers inside the birdcage. This adds a pop of interest, and ties in the red birds to the rest of the table. Also each plate is decorated with a little bird nest and bird. These could make great place card holders, and can easily be set aside when its time to eat!

Most of these items were found around our house. Since we do a lot of decorating, we have a plethora of random things! If you have a special interest, such as birds, you can use those things that you have already on hand to make a beautiful table design for a holiday party of family get together! This is a great idea, especially if you're on a tight budget.

There is still one more backyard tablescape to come! So check back
