Fall Tablescape at Historic Montana Lodge

In the spirit of the Fall Season Jennifer and Lexi were invited to decorate a table centerpiece for an intimate dinner at a beautiful historic lodge on Swan Lake, near Bigfork, Montana.

We used a rustic wood box built by our favorite local craftsman, Chris Pemberton filled with fresh crab apples from the trees in Jennifer's yard. We discovered that wiping the crab apples polished them for extra shine. Who knew it was possible to make a delightful crab apple even more gorgeous?

White garden fresh phlox from Jennifer's garden added an extra touch to the beautiful centerpiece display.

Antique lanterns, and tins combined with pillar candles in varying heights set off an ambience that matched the time frame of the magestic lodge.

What a place for a dinner party! A historic hunting lodge from the early 1900's.

We thought that this table runner and napkin set from Sundance had the perfect rustic charm. Antique medicine bottles, were used to provide individual floral arrangements at each place setting. Crab apples served as the place name display on the center of the Pendleton dinner plates.
