Centerpiece of the Month or COTM

Here: a little centerpiece inspiration from my blog to your table. COTM, or centerpiece of the month, is meant to provide you with ideas to decorate your table and otherwise set the stage for your mealtime indulgences.

I have been a bit off on timing for displaying centerpieces, but today is as good a day as any to share the latest round of table-toppers:

Anapuma from Food-n-More lights up her table:

Sandi from Whistlestop Cafe brings us a bit of the beach:

Myriam from Once Upon a Tart finds a festive way to bring a wreath from mantel to table:

Meeta from What’s for Lunch Honey? brings us smartly to fall with this gorgeous display:

And fall just wouldn’t be fall without Dayna’s chinese lanterns, en route from her blog Vegan Visitor:

And on my new little cafe table in our new little house, I couldn’t resist a cake plate piled high with fruit:

Calling all centerpieces and fall bits of tabletop inspiration: Sandi, from Whistlestop Cafe, will be hosting October’s COTM. Go visit her, send her your lovely photos during the month of October (okay, anytime between now and end of OCT). Send your photo, name and blog url here: SandiMcMc@yahoo.com; the roundup for OCT will be NOV 7.

Thanks Sandi!

Janelle, one day I will be organised enough to send you a centrepiece … these ones are lovely, but I think this is the easiest time of year to make the table look good, all that harvest home, the dahlias, etc

Thanks for sharing,

A great round up!
I will do my best next month. You have always done such a good job. I hope mine doesn’t end up being a free-for-all. I am looking forward to it.

Lovely centrepieces - very inspirational! I often don’t do centrepieces (too busy making food I guess) but they really can add to the atmostphere of a dinner or lunch. Thanks!

[…] Due to my inability to grow these plants, I’m often envious of any I see, especially when I read of how prolific they are. Imagine my reaction when, out on a stroll, I saw an off shoot traveling away from the pack, growing under a fence. With a glance over each shoulder and an apology under my breath, I gave it a yank and began to imagine my centerpiece of the month. […]
