Home Sweet Home an Autumn Welcome

Hello everyone and welcome to our home.  I have finished feathering our nest for Fall!   I really like less is more in my Fall decorating this year.   I kept things simple in some cases by just adding a pumpkin here and a pumpkin there.  043

013

  I bought most of the real pumpkins at one of our local farmer’s market stands.  I think this pumpkin is the prettiest shade of orange. 

018

I also bought the gourds at the same local farmer’s market stand. 

042

I changed the floral arrangement in the rain boots for the fall season. 

070

In the dining room, I only added little touches of Fall. 

006

On the buffet, I placed fabric pumpkins that I made in the champagne bucket.

001

And on the dining room table, I kept the dried hydrangeas and added faux white pumpkins.

037

034

In the kitchen,  I placed a Fall wreath that I made many years ago on the pantry door.  That was long before my blogging days.  I still love this wreath! 

001

The gathering basket on the farm table in the kitchen says that Fall has arrived here.

051

009

I only added a few Fall touches to the open shelving in the kitchen.

064

066

I added a faux white pumpkin to the vintage scale.

065 

And I draped a “Give Thanks” tea-towel, that I had made, over the side of the wooden box. 

014

I placed a white Welcome pumpkin to the the top of trash bin cabinet.

052

In the family room, as most of you have seen, my Fall mantel shelf.

007

056

063

I don’t know what it is about this pumpkin because it is not very pretty…..but I just had to get another one this year. 

010

059

Inside the cloche, I placed a fabric pumpkin that I made and added some fall leaves.  I also added something that is very special and dear to me,  my grandmother’s rosary which is laying on top of the pumpkin. 

021

Now that I’m done with Fall decorating, I’m already thinking about Christmas! 

As always, thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a wonderful week. 

Gail

  1. I think thinking about Christmas has kept me from doing too much Fall, Gail. I love all your touches. I have done the same; just adding in little bits of Fall among my everyday decor. It does it for me.

  3. Thanks for the tour. Everything looks fall!! I noticed the candle maker. Very rustic. It's quite old. My friend has one. Once Nov 1 comes all the fall goes in the bin and out comes Christmas. I have already started some projects for my etsy sight.
