More Fall Decor Pictures.

lucymo — Tue, 05 Sep 2017 01:01:56 GMT

This is on the top of a three tier shelf in the kitchen.

Turkey left the roost early this year.

Candle rings from Walmart, under $4. Works well with these tall brass candlesticks in a corner. Will not fit a 3" candle without cutting the inside ring and turning the cut edge to the back. These are CI slender candles under 2 1/2", could probably fit a 2 3/4" candle. I like the rings, nice and full and for that price but needs a larger center ring.

Thanks for posting. You did a great job, it looks so nice. I love the three pumpkins, where did you get them?

@panda1234 Thank you. The three pumpkins and the rooster are from Valerie a couple years or so ago. They are ceramic so no batteries to buy. The turkey also came from Valerie. I have a floral piece with the turkey but it didn't work in a picture.

Looks good Lucy. I like those pumpkins too. I had the CI orange slim candles, but they all faded badly. Had to move them along. I bought new orange candles online after the season last year. They are a dark rich orange. I unpacked them today, but haven't put batteries in yet. How much more decorating are you going to do?

@GCR18 The candles are not a true orange but to me, more coral. I haven't used mine much so they are still like new. You probably remember when Valerie brought the pumpkins and the rooster. I like that they are ceramic and not MG, and no batteries. I like the MG but have so many of them.

I still have quite a bit more decorating to do. I probably won't post any more pictures just wait for you to post your pics. LOL.

@lucymo Beautiful! I especially love the pumpkins and rooster in the first picture. I don't remember seeing the rooster, was it quite a few years ago. I wish I had bought the pumpkins. If they were sold before 20013, I wouldn't have had room in my kitchen for the pumpkins, but I love them.

Ya, you're right they were coral. Mine faded a lot. I didn't really watch Valerie until the last couple years. I didn't do holiday decor other than something for Christmas. I put my mantel together before I went away, but I don't like it. LOL. I bought a Valerie garland that goes with my wreath. I don't use garlands because my mantel isn't very wide. Well the garland is taking up most of the width and everything is hanging on the end. It's too busy and squished. I need to take everything off the mantel, put the garland somewhere else and start again. Not sure if I'll get to do it until the weekend.

@mousiegirl I can't remember how long I've had the pumpkins. I'm sure it's been four or five years ago. The rooster came after but he goes well with the pumpkins. QVC cuts off our order history and I don't keep a journal on purchases.

I see people post pictures of items and I wonder why I didn't see or get them but guess we do miss seeing a few things. lol

@lucymo I didn't begin decrating my kitchen until Fall of 2014, as that is when it was completed, made a mistake when I posted 2013, and was only watching Christmas shows for years. When I knew I would have a kitchen to decorate which was 2014, I began buying lots of Fall decor that year.

The rooster is the perfect coloration for Fall. I have one that I think looks great for fall, but it is year round, but your's looks as if it were made for Fall.

I have the set of mini pumpkins and gourds that match your pumpkins, knew they looked familiar, lol. What are the measurements of the pumpkins?

You have been busy, and I am getting inspired!!! I remember those beautiful ceramic pumpkins, and I remember thinking "should I or shouldn't I' - but that was before I ordered with the iPad. This iPad ordering gets me in trouble to quickly - lol 😂

Thank you for sharing!!!

@lucymo

What a great job you did! I love all your things and the colors are so vibrant. I eyed those pumpkins for a long time and almost bought them. So sorry I didn't now after seeing your beautiful display. I love your big turkey as well. Your house looks so welcoming. I just love the fall season. Enjoy!

@lucymo

Thank you. I do not remember these from Valerie, so pretty. I guess I am too late, have to pay better attention. Are you done with your decorating? I worked on mine over the weekend and will finish up today, then on to the outside next week.

@pinky ann Thanks, Pinky, I just love the colors of fall. Usually, I'm a bit restrained with the decor but in fall I use it all.

It is so good to have you posting with us again. Enjoy your decorating and the beautiful fall colors in your area. Our trees are still showing green leaves, no sign of color change.

@panda1234 No, I still have some decorating to do but mostly, I need to put away the everyday pieces that I moved to make room for the fall ones.

I hope you will post pictures of some of your decor. I think it helps us to see the different ways that people use the same items. Also, I just enjoy seeing the pretty decorating pictures.

@mousiegirl Oh, yes, the mini pumpkins, I forgot about them. I didn't get those as I have jars of them from different places.

I've wondered why Valerie hasn't brought more pumpkins in ceramic as most of us would be interested. I sure have plenty of the MG ones. Our favorite pumpkins are the Mosaic ones from Plow and Hearth last year. They are so pretty, lit or not.

The pumpkins are hard to measure because they are irregular shaped but in the 5-7" height, and 5-6 " diameter, depending on where you measure on them. They aren't large ones but I like that that they aren't the perfect round shape.

@PattyShell LOL, you sound like me. I'm always finding some way to order.

This forum is the place to get inspired to buy and decorate. But, with us sharing our thoughts and pictures it makes it more fun. When you finish your decorating please share a few pictures so we can enjoy it too.

@itsmetoo Thank you. The pumpkins were a decent price as I recall and I really like the colors. They are also a change from the MG ones that I have so many of.

The turkey is also from Valerie but I needed to use the flash and since it is glittered it's colors didn't show well in the picture.

I've done the same thing, pass on something and then later decide I want it but it's no longer available. Well, we can't buy everything, have to make choices.

Enjoy your decorating and don't forget to share pictures with us.
