Fall in the Morning Room

Good morning! I thought I would show you around the morning room, decorated for FALL!!! We are starting at the shelf unit on the left of the room, by the back door that we can NOW GO OUT OF!!!!!!!!!! It is so nice to be able to step outside onto our NEW DECK!!!! BTW, they are supposed to bring the railings and install them today but so far no sign of anyone. Why am I not surprised????:).  Anyway, back to the morning room. I love this little vignette with a twiggy pumpkin on a stand and nestled on 2 rings, one green and one fall berries. This sits next to may favorite green jar that is filled with hydrangeas that I dried, some berries and sticks.
 I added more hydrangeas this year.

 Can you see the feather in the front? Joe found it outside, it kinda looks like it could be a hawk feather.
 The bakers rack is all dressed for Fall too. We are not dressed for Fall though, the temps are going back into the 80's this week!!!
 I love fall garlands and have several. I like to wind them around a vignette.

 Love this pumpkin dish. The little pumpkin guy came from a craft fair MANY years ago. I have 2 and they get wrapped  VERY carefully each year.
 I have never seen anything like them again.
 A grapevine pumpkin that I decorated and my cute squirrel on an acorn. I like squirrels now that I don't have them destroying everything:):)
 A large brown ceramic pumpkin, surrounded by another garland and some acorns and pine cones. And there is the second pumpkin guy:) Sorry, just realized I should pull him out a little.
 A tiny cloche is filled with a tiny pumpkin, a grapevine ball and some berries all nestled on a found nest.

 The candle is surrounded by real acorns from my firnds tree and some nuts and cinnamon sticks. And can you see the TEENY pumpkins on the ring??

 Love this pumpkin too with it's raised details.

~~~The Leaves are Begining to FALL!!!~~~

Good evening! I set another Fall table just for YOU! Please come joing me for a Fall luncheon. Please have a seat and let's catch up!I did a small stack of dishes for this table. Starting with a rattan placemat trimed in green to match the runner, I then used my brown leaf charger (that came from WALMART several years ago), then a scalloped white plate, my orange ruffled plate, a square glass plate with leaves embossed on it, and a tiny green leaf plate!

 We have brown bubble goblets with our printed napkin tucked inside and a leaf glass too, for your choice of beverage.
 The wire pumpkin place card holders came from Michaels about 2 years ago.
 I decided to use my green handled flatware to keep things lighter.


 The sun moves all around this room during the day, casting great shadows.
 I have kept the same centerpiece for now, I really like it!



 For some added interest I tucked some berry stems in between the plates.



 I will show you the stack: first the green leaf plate
 the glass leaf plate
 the edges of the orange plate and the white one
 and the leaf charger.



 The S and P are a pumpkin and an acorn.

 
 
Thanks for coming over. I wish you REALLY could all come over for a real visit! Have a wonderful week, my friends. XO, Pinky

~~~My Fall Mantle!!!~~~

Hi everyone! I am excited to show you my Fall mantle cause I love how it turned out! I wanted it to be FULL of Fall goodness and that is what it looks like to me. I have used a large berry garland, vases with orange stems, 2 blue and white jars and acorns and candles! I think the combination of orange and blue and white is FABULOUS! They are opposite on the color wheel so that works for me! Come see. This is my view from the kitchen in the morning when the sun is streaming in!
 I used 2 sparkly pumpkins on the ends and the yellow ceramic one in the middle.
 I placed 2 brown glass pumpkins on candle sticks. They have flameless votives in them for at night.
 I love the large fauz acorns, they are all over here! A few years ago I went crazy for acorns.

 The arrangements are a bush of the small flowers that acts like a base and then the other stems can be added. I love the Chinese lantern flowers!  I have had them in my stash for a long time and never used them before. Then I added some sticks for height and drama:)
 I placed my leaf pillow on the chair by the fireplace and added a sunflower pick to the vase of greens.
 I took these night shots the other night, but now I have added mini orange lights all along the garland. I will try to add a picture of that tomorrow:)

 I got this berry garland several years ago where I worked and it has held up very well.
 Another shot from the kitchen.

Thanks so much for your visit. I will be linking to:
