Last Fall we had a Barn Sale and a Barn Party, at Peacock Park and The Cottage Journal Magazine came and Shot the Events for the Fall Issue That Came out This Fall. I am so Grateful and Thankful for all the Wonderful Articles That They Have Published at Hoffman Media. I Have so Much fun When They come out to Photograph, and Can't Wait till the Next Venture we Collaborate on Together.

Michigan Fall WOW ! |
I Have a Couple 150 Year Old Barns on the Property, and I Love to Entertain in them. So Last Fall we Started with an Empty Huge Shell.
We Started By Running Bales of Hay Down the Center of the Loft. Then I put Sheets of Plywood Across, to Make the Tabletop. I used our Peacock Park design Burlap Net as a Runner and Tableskirt Over the top of our Natural Packing Paper From the Warehouse. For Place Settings I Used Clear Glass Plates, with a Collage of Fall Leaves Pressed Between the Two Plates for Each Place Setting.

The photographer getting just the right shot! |
I Used Vintage Glass Ball Canning Jars as a pop of Color on the Table for Glasses. ( Nothing I love more than that Vintage Vibe of old glass).
My Peacock Park design Wallpaper Panels made a Perfect Backdrop to add Interest to a Food Station.
I also Love the Gothic Edge Table

This made for a great gathering and conversation area. And I loved using our Damask Linen Drapery Panels along the walls to break up the wood. |
You can see How the Straw Bales Worked for Seating, and I lined the Table with Rows of our Metal Candle Lanterns, as Well as Using the Tall Woven Baskets as Centerpieces.
