A FEW MORE FALL FINDS

Oznell — Thu, 25 Aug 2022 14:21:20 GMT

Disclaimer: I don't have all these, have personal experience with only just a few. But from what I could tell, all would make great additions to a subtle fall decor "repertoire".

Am always surprised at the impact of simple little dried bunny tail grass. I don't display mine alone like this online picture-- I put mine with just a few, linear spiky dark red flowers, and they look like a million bucks. End of summer, "pre-fall".

In the bag, they looked rather drab-- but arranged and mixed, they transform. Since they are natural, dried grasses, you just have to be careful with them, not to snap the stems.

Mine were from Amazon, Redapple Natural Rabbit's Tail Grass.

I don't have this Target pitcher, but what a great fall color and sculptural shape for displaying florals. Hearth and Hand for Magnolia Stoneware 60 oz Pitcher in Espresso Brown, $14.99.

They also do a slightly larger dreamy teal-ish one for blue lovers.

Joann's had the perfect "burnt orange" shade of taper candles, and really was struck by these ridged ones which have great texture. I just have the smooth ones in the same color. Wonder if I'm the only one who lays out candles in different colors in shallow dishes, (like bowl filler, ha) just to enjoy the shapes and colors-- they don't always have to be upright and lit...

On their shelves right now, Walmart has very cool-looking, ceramic two-tone candles. The containers also have ridges, (love, don't know why), and are heavy and well made. The black ones are Better Homes and Gardens Warm Leather and Amber, and come in at least 2 different shapes:

They also have taupe color and other fall friendly shades, taupe, green, etc., in different scents.

Must mention another nifty find in the Walmart candle/decor aisle. If you need a chunky, neutral 8 inch vase, that is a modern classic, the Better Homes and Gardens White Rustic Ceramic Table Vase, is such a buy at $9 and change! It has a semi-matte glaze, and in real life, has that Pottery Barn/ Crate and Barrel look, but at a tiny price...

It's also a creamy white, not stark, and would look great with tawny fall foliage in it.

@Oznell I especially liked the little white vase with a slight sheen with that brass bowl. I would probably put a bit more color in the brass bowl. Nice ideas! This reminded me to get out a pitcher I bought 2 yrs. ago. I had forgotten it till I saw this!

@Oznell You must enjoy looking at decorating ideas like I enjoy real estate. You find interesting things to share, and I appreciate your efforts.

The trick that I find the easiest to set a seasonal mood is home fragrance. A candle or diffuser in a home takes the senses to that season. The brain thinks the house is more seasonal than it is visually. A very few fall inspired items with a fall scented candle (pumpkin spice, etc.) is a simple fix for those of us with limited energy.

As usual, Oznell, it is always a joy to see your decor ideas. I do like the pitchers especially in the blue. The vase is also appealing, simple but filled with foliage it would stand out. I am more into formal and elegant looks but I can appreciate decor that is simple but makes a statement I would put these type items along with other designs and enjoy!

Yep---all are so my taste, style and colors---I love the pottery pitchers and have a collection of different types of pitchers in different media-- packed away in my storage unit. love the dried weeds and things too. Have some of those tucked away too..
