THE DECORATING HAS BEGUN..BRING ON THE FALL

Hello Loves!

You know, perhaps it was our rainy weekend,

but something put me in the mood to finally

begin to decorate for the fall season!

I don't have concrete ideas just yet, so

I decided to just work my way through each room

and decided how I wanted it to look.

I added a few small touches beginning with the kitchen.....

It was love at first sight when I found this
beautiful oil and vinegar cruet set....

Doesn't this just make you happy.......

Oh, I love this....perfect for my organic olive oil.....

I added Balsamic Vinegar to the second dispenser and placed

them both right near the cooktop......

Is it my imagination or are the days getting a tiny bit shorter?

Now for the florals.....

These are my chosen colors for fall

in the kitchen....soft and subtle colors of coffee, cream and various

shades of lavender and deep purples.

This arrangement contains peonies,

hydrangeas and miniature roses.

I am really pleased with how this turned out

and as long as you love what you created with your own

two hands and creativity...then it's all good.

I probably will add some chunky candlesticks, but
for now....this is the first layering piece.

In the formal dining room....
I like using deep, rich autumn colors.....

There will be more added to Mother's buffet,
but this was a great start to the transformation......

In the formal living room, I wanted a rather opulent
arrangement on the piano.....

It's vibrant and all arranged in my favorite animal print vase....

Both Mother and my Mother-in-law, loved using big bunches
of eucalyptus in the fall....I can still remember that marvelous smell...

There is something so romantic about autumn colors....
doesn't it make you dream about that one perfect day in
October that seems to belong only to you......
