goodbye summer

With Summer trailing out and Autumn rolling in, I'm finding myself drawn towards rich hues, warm textures, and yummy treats. Today the air is cooler, but the sun is still shining which makes me want to host a luncheon with my favorite peeps and soak up the last bit of Summer. This luncheon tablescape from Snippet & Ink says it all:

Dahlias are my favorite and something that I look forward to all year. My garden has a few popping up, although I'd love to have a whole garden to pick daily. These beauties are gorgeous shades of fuchsia and plum, and I love that they scattered a few blackberries throughout. Both beautiful and delicious!

My favorite detail has to be the use of rustic burlap coupled with the modern sillouette of the glass cloche. I am a sucker for contrasting and layered textures - both visually and for the touch.
