Happy Wednesday… the first of fall! I have to confess, I was uber-ready to welcome fall this year by getting my decorating on. Much as I loved my summer mantel with its killer burlap flag bunting, I am ready to think crisp mornings, breezy leaf-drifting days, and pumpkins!
And, oo la la, I love it so!
The leaves haven’t begun changing yet here, but I’m loving the Japanese Maple clippings in my demijohns. It will be fun to refresh with some deep reddish purple ones when the leaf turning finally begins.
And now, I’ll just hush, and let you enjoy…
If you have any questions regarding projects or sources, please ask away in the comments and I’ll answer them there as well. So what about you? Have you decorated your mantel for fall yet?
Linking up!

Thanks again Heidi for the candle giveaway!! I ordered the Caramel Apple Cider candle and received an email today that it has shipped. I am so excited and look forward to trying it out and especially looking forward to seeing what kind of ring it will have inside 🙂 I will update you after it arrives. I hope you are having a wonderful and very blessed week!!
That gourd looks like a bending bird!
The mantel is really pretty. I love the colors and textures of fall. I just put out my scarecrows, pumpkins and mums. I got a few owl accents for the inside and some fantastic scented pinecones.
Looks so pretty! I’m really digging the vases on the ends!
Hey Heidi,
I love the look of your website and the fall mantle is lovely! How did you embellish silver pumpkin? Love it!!
