~~~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:

Shadow Shots This Morning

Good morning! It is a CRISP, COOL  morning here in southeast Pa.! 44 when I got up AND 49 right now. But it will warm up to a NICE day. I took some "shadow shots" that I love, this morning and thought I would share them with you. Enjoy!!!! I cut these berry branches from the old house yesterday and placed them in my white pitcher.  They just say FALL to me!

 The living room gets light from the east in the morning and from the south in the afternoon. I LOOOOOVE having all this light!

 A faux pumpkin rests in my ivy plant.

I'll show you a close up of the coffee table soon.

 My favorite jar!

 A grapevine pumpkin that I decorated several years ago and my cute squirrel.

 pumpkin and grapevine ball in a cloche along with some berries.

 Thanks for your visit. We were up early because they started digging the foundation for the house next door this morning. I kinda hate to see a house go up there cause we have enjoyed the view. But we have had a year so I can't complain:) Have a great day my friends!!!!

I have been very busy! But I wanted to share a few Fall vignettes today. I will give you a complete tour very soon but ALOT is going on here!!! Plus I have been cleaning out closets, purging clothes and took 4 bags to GW today. The deck is being done as we speak, Joe is trying to work on the bar, we had a showing today....it goes on and on. So, here are just a few shots. I love, LOVE fall!!!!! This first one is in the morning room. Pumpkins, acorns, pinecones and a cloche!

 My grapevine pumpkin elevated on a wire stand and embellished with 2 candle rings.
