Pumpkins and gourds and vintage~Oh MY!






I have loved decorating the house for Fall this past week. I thought that I'd start with showing you part of the family room. It's so easy to enhance pieces that you already have for fall. Tiny pumpkins and gourds are 25 cents at my local farmer's market and bigger pumpkins range from $1.50-$6.00

I also save my bittersweet each year that my father-in-law picks for me. It adds such beautiful color to any arrangement. I also love the inexpensive fabric type leaves that you can get at the dollar store. I put them everywhere! I use wreaths to hold large candle holders. It gives them more substance then on there own. I use candles in oranges and browns, Scents like warm cinnamon pumpkin and spiced nut bread fill the air of my home and I love it!! Filling your home with wonderful scents is so important. Treat yourself to a wonderful candle today. 2 of my favorite kinds are Celebrating Home and Candleberry! If you love to decorate as much as I do please let me know! I'd love to see pictures and trade ideas!!
Happy Monday
