Autumn Decor


I love fall.  Normally I love Halloween too, but this year, I just couldn't get into it...so when I decorated, I only put out Autumn goodies...most of the Jack-o-lanterns, bats, witches , and things that go bump in the night stayed safely up in the rafters. 


Here are a few things that are on the mantle right now.  I made those 3 stuffed pumpkins a few years ago...they were way simple and I like how they are all a little different but still the same.


When I cleaned out  ("de-baby-fied") Connor's room, there were a few 12x12 frames that needed a new home.  A few years ago we did an autumn swap a block exchange and, being the slacker I am, the  squares were still sitting in a box.  Random?  Well....a little black spray paint, some masking tape, cardboard and 25 minutes later (I had to wait for the paint to dry)...these were done.  The wreath was a prototype... I ended up making 6 or 8 of the scarecrow...My aunt made 6 or 8 of the wreath (and her stitching is better), but I used mine because there were several fabrics that were the same in each...and I'm all about the matchy-matchy!




Okay...enough stalling...I'm off to work on Christmas projects.

  1. I love how you decorated your front room. Since I wasn't able to decorate for fall at all this year, it was so fun to look at all your pretties. :)

    Can't wait to see how you change it up for Christmas. We are decorating next Friday. I have to get some holiday fun in before it's over this year.
