Share your Fall decorating pics here!

Susan Louise — Wed, 05 Aug 2015 17:50:50 GMT

Well, I thought it would be nice for everyone to share pics as they decorate for Fall.

I just completed one area in our kitchen. I cannot take all the credit since I got help from Marsha for posting about the wreath from Grandin Road and Mousiegirl shared info about the owl from Improvements.

For info on what I used:

Owl from Improvements

Wreath & candle rings from Grandin Road (Finley Hill Collection)

Birch Pillar candles from Pottery Barn

Wicker basket from Hobby Lobby last year

This is beautiful, Susan Louise. The wreath is huge and so full.

@Susan Louise, looks beautiful, as usual. I don't decorate until September so it will be awhile for me. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful, Susan Louise!

So tatstefully done. Full, but not crowded, nice mix of mediums, and great color and texture coordination.

I have an issue in decor that things be to scale. Certain things just don't look good, size wise with certain other things. And you always hit it right on!

Thank you all for your kind comments...it means a lot to me! I hope I have inspired others in some way.

At this point I don't think I'll be posting any other Fall decor pics this year since I'll be putting the 16" red luminara lantern on our kitchen table, my big arrangement I made last year and put onto the top of our fridge, and nearly everything else will remain the same as last year in our livingroom...maybe a few minor tweaks, but that's it...and I've posted those pics enough over this past year for different reasons.They need to be archived...LOL

I'm looking forward to everyone else's pics!!!

@Susan Louise, Did you see the Wheat Bundles thread? You may want to take a look. I tried to do the @/Mention to you from that thread, but it wouldn't work.

@Susan Louise Looks great! Thanks for sharing your ideas and resources. It's too early for me to break out autumn decor as we are just moving into our hottest months, so sorry no pictures from me yet.

Looks very nice SL! Makes me anxious to get mine out.

Wish I knew how to post photos. I have a hard enough time getting them from my phone to the computer. Tech challenged.

Beautiful SL!! You are the master at vignettes! I can't wait to see more. I am almost done with my fall/halloween decor. I hope I do not need any appliance repairs, etc. I would have a hard time "splaining" to the repairman my halloween decor out in August...! Due to my demanding job, I really don't have a choice. Bring on some more pics!

@Susan Louise...Looks so lovely SL. This could be in a magazine! What size pillars are shown here? Do you have all the sizes including the 8" in the birch?

O/P

Thank you for starting this thread. Love your photo!

I really hope that as more folks decorate for fall, more photos will follow. At the end of August, we're moving into a large condo, which is huge for us, as we have not "owned" for 15 years (long story). Because we've been renting, nearly all of our belongings have been in storage, which includes all of my seasonal decor with the exception of Christmas. I can't wait to get into my stash of decorating stuff to see what I have, what's made it though all those years of storage and what I'll be able to do with this new place of ours.

Since discovering "Home," I've learned a great deal and can't wait to apply much of it to our new place. Thanks to all the contributors.

@sfnative, I can sense your enthusiasm to get in there and decorate after all this time. I hope you find all of your decorations to be in good shape and that you have so much fun using them again.
