FALL DECORATIONS

I decided today might be a good day to pull out the fall decorations. It hasn't been cool enough yet for me to get in the fall mood, but since I was off work today I started putting some things out. Last year I saw this idea on one of the blogs I read and copied it. It was fun to pull it out again this year. I have this on my table in my foyer.
My dining room table is decorated very simple. I just put some pumpkins, gourds, fall leaves and berries on a tray covered with a fall napkin. Of course there's my old oil lamp. I'm not really pleased with my mantel but it's going to stay for now anyway.

One of the mums that our church sold for missions.....isn't it beautiful? I have five different colored ones around the pool. This one has opened more than the others. Fall colors are beautiful to me. I'll be happy when it cools off a little more but I know that will come soon enough. I hope you are having fun getting your fall decorations in place.

    It has been so cold here that I have not even decorated my porch for fall...the wind is just so cold most days.

    Looks great to me, Sue. You always have just the perfect touch. Not only has it not been cold enough to feel like fall but all the rain has put a damper on anything I wanted to do. Maybe you can inspire me to get a little something done. Have a great weekend. Sharon
