Golden Sunflower

Ahh yes, tablescaping...my long lost friend. 
I have missed you.

I had a few extra minutes and thought aloud,
"I need a pretty tablescape!"
(which I do realize may seem sad to some who just don't get it.  lol)

So here goes:



The warm colors of Fall are always a welcome sight this time of year.


*Sigh*


You may recall seeing some of these items 
from my other tablescapes.
Nothing is new here.


Wicker placemats from Pier 1.
Bronze chargers from Michaels.
Orange Dinner plates from Walmart, Better Homes & Gardens collection.
Sunflower plates from Christmas Tree Shop.
Napkins from Bed, Bath & Beyond.
Flatware...a mystery.  For the life of me, I can't remember!
Park Lane wine glasses from local antique shop.
Amber bubble goblets were borrowed from my sister 
(I believe she got them at Tuesday Morning)
Burlap runner from Home Goods.
Black enamel splatterware coffee pot from local antique shop.

.

The tree looking out the dining room window
had not changed when I took these photos several weeks ago.  
 It's turning a vibrant red now. 


Thank you for visiting me today.
Happy Fall!

Just an fyi:  I'm having computer
issues, which I'm hoping are resolved soon.
I could scream... it's all very frustrating.

Fall Living Room

my Fall home because before we know it, 
we'll all be decorating for Christmas!

We actually had a little bit of snow on Sunday.  
That's all I needed to begin having
visions of sugarplums dancing in my head. 
 As if I needed any help!

I showed you my mantel a few weeks ago,
so I thought I'd show you the rest of the living room today.

Come along, 
I promise not to talk too much.

Halloween

I've been trying to put up a few photos of my Halloween decor for weeks now.
I finally got a chance to do it.  
Phew...I made it with a few days to spare!  



I didn't put out a lot of Halloween decor this year.
Just a few of my favorite vintage looking pieces here & there.



Happy Halloween!  


 

Fall mantel 2016

One question....

Has it really been 5 months since I posted anything?
5 whole months?

Yes, I'm afraid it has been.  

Spring & Summer flew by.
My daughter graduated from high school in June.
I guess that answers any questions concerning my
 disappearance from blogging!

♥♥♥

So with that...

how about a Fall mantel?

I love fall.
I love all those rich colors.
I thought it would be fun to add
a little blue to the mix this year.




I really love this color palette for Fall.  


Happy Fall!
