Ingredients of a Fall Mantle

Start with a substantial piece like an old window,add in a few pumpkins, and turkeys,
and layers and layers of leaves and berries.Mix them together to form the perfect fall mantle.

Savor or Rush

I am one to savor all the months of fall. I know there are many who have already rushed into decorating for winter
and Christmas, but November still means autumn to me.
It's the month to slow down, relax, enjoy,
and take time to contemplate all of my blessings.

How about you?
Do you savor or rush in November?

Seasonal Decorating

When I think about decorating for the seasons naturally what comes to mind are the jewel tones of fall, the reds and greens of Christmas, and the pastels of spring and Easter. But as I looked around my home I've noticed that the greens of summer have infiltrated my home in the form of faux plants and moss balls, with a few florals thrown in for good measure.

Is your home sporting the greens of the season?

Just Another Mantle Monday

Using many of the same elements from my 4th of July mantle,

I redecorated for a feeling of
a sophisticated summer.
