It's Fall Y'all

Dear Friends

It's Fall Y'all!  No cooler temps yet but I'm sure they will get here in Georgia soon enough.  I decided to use some of my dried flowers to make a Fall wreath.  Lots of dried flowers to sprinkle on my mantle with a few pumpkins, and a pumpkin with a rose stem.

Off The Wall Fall Table...

Dear Friends

Time has a way of ticking by, even if the pretty clock has stopped.  The holidays are upon us and I've been talking about a table setting for Thanksgiving but instead I'm calling this post "Off The Wall Fall Table.  If you go back a few post you will see my "Off The Wall Spring Table".  Literally all the China came off the wall!  I've used old platters for Fall not your normal, a beautiful bowl for the flowers and the silverware holders I made from a goodwill gift.  The candle holders were bought at goodwill and cleaned with vinegar.  Crochet table cloth, amber glasses with gold and wine goblets with cracks, to seem old.  I know this isn't your norm but that's the joy of posting on my blog I only post what "I Love"!  I hope you do to.  Please enjoy every moment of your time with friends and family!  My mother will be gone five years the day after Thanksgiving and we had the best holidays together.  I did my best this year without you but you are continuously in my heart and the reason for this blog.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone and may your memories keep you strong!

Fall In Love With Fall

Dear Blogging Friends

Just wanted to share a few pics of pallet pumpkins made by my daughter and I.  My daughter loves farm house decorating.  The scale as you have seen before in my pics was a Christmas gift to my daughter from me and her dad.  Do you remember the ugliest bench post?  Pulled out of the dump and transformed, to me this is real shabby beauty.  Enjoy all Fall beauty and fall in love with what you already have around the house.  More shabby beautiful to come.

Friday Goodwill Find: Grandmothers Fall

Dear Friends

I'm a true believer that all beautiful and classic things never go out.  The current issue of Romantic Homes featured some beautiful needle point.  I love needle point and I'm finishing up a few pieces found at Goodwill.  My Goodwill Find is this faux needle point throw ($5) and I love that it compliments my needle point pumpkin I made out of a needle point piece found at Goodwill.  My husband confessed that his grandmother would love the rocking chair and throw and there you have it, "Grandmothers Fall!"   I never had the chance to meet Ulla Maye Cline but I know she loved flowers and beautiful things and had the best biscuits in the world.  Enjoy the moments we have with the ones we love!
