Fall in the Living Room!

I can not tell you how much I LOVE this room, but especially in the Fall! It almost seems to glow! Early morning the sun streams in the windows and lights it up. It makes me smile every single morning when I walk out here. I hope you enjoy how I have decorated the room for Fall. We'll start at the coffee table.
 I usually have this basket on the table and just change out the accessories. I filled my blue and white pedestal container with miniature mums and a pumpkin.

 I already had the antlers, spheres, and turtle shell here. I love the texture they provide.
 Feathers are another Fall component, along with gourds and pumpkins.
 The iron candle stick is a favorite. I have it in 2 sizes, the other one is here in my office.

 The pumpkin pillow was a new find last year at PB.
 I love the mix of orange and blue and white. The RL pillows are a staple on the sofa for almost every season.
 There is a story behind this little bear. Joe's cousin brought it for Colleen and for some reason I left it on the sofa. Well, he passed away a couple of months ago so now I can't bring myself to move it. Colleen loves it when she comes here.
 I just added 2 faux pumpkins to my ferns.
 They sit on one of the elephants from Vietnam.
 The view from between the kitchen and breakfast room.
 A garland on the table and a pumpkin perched on a vase.

 I love to sit here and read or browse through a magazine.
 My chair is sporting the sunflower pillow.
 Beside it are 2 sparkly pumpkins on the tiered stand.
 The candle here is an LED one!

 See what I mean about it almost glows? It is a very comfy room. I really love the colors of Fall!
Thanks for your visit. Our temps have dropped, it never got over 68 today and it is to be in the low 70's all week. We got to the beach for the girls week just in time!!!
XO, Pinky

Fall on the Mantle and Hearth

I was inspired by Pinterest this year in doing my mantle. I found a pin that had a beautiful garland hanging off the side of the mantle. I took it from there and this is what I created. I used this glass pumpkin on the left side. I am loving the glass pumpkins!
 Many of you have seen this berry garland for many years, usually just draped across the mantle. I wound it together with a leaf garland then draped it down the side of the mantle.

 I added some dries orange slices too.


One of my velvet pumpkins at the base of one of the candle sticks.
 The candle sticks are holding 2 of my crackle pumpkins.
 A wooden acorn sits in the center.
 I created a new arrangement in this pottery vase adorned with turtles. It is a favorite of mine.
 I used berries, Chinese lanterns, feathers,  and sticks.




 Since I took these pictures I added a candle ring under the other pumpkin too.

 I kept the hearth simple as there is a lot going on, on the mantle.


 My ivy topiary cranes, a blue and white jar and a velvet pumpkin adorn each side of the hearth.

 I hope you have enjoyed seeing the Fall 2016 mantle. Thanks so much for your visit.
XO, Pinky

Glitz and Glam in the Dining Room for Fall!!!!

I found this runner about a month ago and fell in love. I decided to use it as a base for my decorating in the dining room for Fall. I brought in some animal pillows too, to sit on the arm chairs.
 I love the silver, gold and black sparkly leaves on the runner!

 I brought out some mercury glass votives.
 And  I also added some berry picks and gold branches to the garland. A mercury glass candle stick is used
 To perch a jewel encrusted pumpkin upon!
 A coppery sparkle pumpkin sits on a candle holder as well.
 The gold pumpkin is perched on a gold vase!
 I used a green and twiggy garland down the center and added a pearl garland and some other embellishments. I added some gold branches and some berry picks.
 These gorgeous gold embroidered napkins were my Mother-in-laws. I treasure them.
 My good china came out of the hutch and I added a gold leaf on the bowl.  A sparkly silver placemat grounds the dishes. Black handled flatware came out too.



 I plan to leave the table set like this as we don't use the dining room a lot and it is the first room you see when you enter our house.
Thanks for your visit.
