Madigan made… white leaf plates and other simple fall decor for the kitchen.
To coordinate with the colors in the wreath, I changed the place mats to these chocolate brown faux silk ones.
OK, those are new! But can you believe I found them at the dollar store?
And what about those new leaf plates on the wall? Well, those are new, too! ;o)
Tip: There are a few tricks to spray painting glass. First, clean your glass really well (I use isopropyl alcohol). Next, when you spray paint, use very light and frequent coats. Finally, allow the paint to dry for several days before touching it much… this gives the paint time to cure thoroughly.
In order to mount the plates on the walls, I cut out a square of scrap wood with jigsaw for each dish. I used a strong adhesive (ie. E6000) to glue the wood to the inside of the glass dish.
I’m a big fan of simple fall transitions in the home. These few accents on and around the table are just enough for me to feel like autumn is around the corner.
P.S. Did you know Madigan was not my real name??
I enjoyed reading every one’s guess for my name this past week. The guessing contest is now closed but I can safely say that SOMEONE did guess my name correctly! Woohoo! 🙂
