I started my fall decorating at home and decided this year I wanted to keep things simple, light and suddle. Here is the first completed part - the fire place side of my Living Room.
I'm still enjoying the simplicity of the vintage milk glass vases that I put on my mantel a couple months ago, so I just added some (artificial) wheat and grasses to them.
I placed three metal pumpkins on the fireplace. The largest one I purchased at a craft show a couple years ago and the other two are from my good friend, Ann's booth at A Classy Flea.
They are also great for outdoor use.
No real changes to the left of the fireplace... just some flowers from my yard.
To the right I added a wreath that has hung on my front door in previous years. .
I made it by hot gluing leaves again, and again, anddd ... again.
The leaves are from crate and barrel, unfortunately I don't think they still carry them.
The chair is vintage from another dealer at a classy flea. Vintage shutters fill the corner and a vintage wood crate (I'm seeing a theme here) holds what fire wood I had left over from last year.
I likely won't be lighting any fires for a few months to come, but I still added a vintage brass match stick holder, in anticipation of the cool weather that makes the Season so great.
(down in the right.. see it?)
I like the cute duck detail
Looking at the picture above, the only items that were purchased new are the pumpkins and fleur de lis wreath holder.
Happy Fall!
Looks beautiful Kim - love the simplicity of it!
