Hey guys! I hope you are all having a great week! I hope everyone is well...Chase has a sore throat and was home today and I had one last week. I think there's alot going around right now.
Congrats to Pat...the winner of my giveaway! I will be shipping out her loot out tomorrow. I will be having more giveaways a little closer to Thanksgiving and Christmas...so you will still have some chances to win! I know I said it in my video... ( Ooooh! the sound of my own voice! :0 lol) but I really appreciate you all.
I don't decorate alot for fall, I would love to do the living room, but I know I wouldn't be able to stop at just a few things, I would want to go all out! So I choose to just do the kitchen. I also do a little in the front yard that I will be showing you soon. (it's not much) Here is my table... I had the plates, round wicker place mats and faux pumpkins and gourds. I added the napkins I found at Bed Bath and Beyond and the leaf bowl from Hobby Lobby. I made the leaf placemats. They were not my idea though, I saw the idea on Lauri's blog... Bargain Hunting with Laurie. She's on a blogging break right now, I know we are all missing her though. Anyway, I thought it was a great idea. My table looked so plain, now it's more colorful! They are simple to make, I have instructions on down below.
I had material left over from my curtains in my bedroom, so I just cut out 4 circles and glued the leaves around it. SIMPLE!
Here they are finished... I put the wicker placemats on top so the material doesn't show... although, it's a good color.
I know some of you have seen this rooster arrangement a million times, but I just wanted to show how I dressed it up for fall. I added fall leaves, pumpkins, and gold sunflowers.
I dressed up this candleholder for fall, it was simple too. I bought the glass candle holder at the dollar store and added fall leaf stickers, gold beaded wire and some jewelry beads I already had. I just hot glued them in the corners. Another easy project!
I made this pumpkin arrangement last year.
I had green pears in this jar, but found some small pumpkins and mixed them in. Oh and see that cute little rooster cut out! My friend Cathy frome Mille Fleur sent that to me as a thank you. She is just the sweetest! She also sent me some cute little towels pictured below.

I bought the pumpkin towel at Homegoods in Dallas, but prefer the red one from Cathy. Although this one is cute for the season.
Have you guys ever used a candle warmer? My friend bought this for me for my birthday, I put a pumpkin candle from Yankee in it and it really smells up the whole kitchen. You just turn it on and it turns it into wax. I love it!
My only indoor Halloween decoration.
I hope you enjoyed my little fallness! Before we know it...it will be Christmas time!! Alot of you have seen my Christmas frames and even purchased some last year. This is an example of what I will be doing. I have ordered alot of new embellishments and will be making all kinds of frames. Maybe even some intial ones for Christmas. Hmmmm...My creativity is officially flowing!! I will have more everyday frames for sale soon! Look for some Christmas ones soon too, I'm going to start early this year!

Hi Kristen,
I received my frames today and I love them! Thank you soooo much. I was able to get the package off to Michele today too. ~Whew!
Now I can only hope she doesn't have the baby tomorrow. LOL!
Come by and see my drapes when you get a chance!
Have a good weekend, ~Melissa
I loved this post! Such gorgeous colors and I want all your awesome accessories. They'd go great in my house! Love the placemats with the leaves.
Hi Kristen,
I found you via Melissa's Heart and Home. You both have beautiful homes that I can relate to. The colors are very similar to what I use in my home. Your blog is very pretty and so are your frames.
I'm so glad I met you. I also have an Etsy site that I'm just starting. I'm going to visit you there now.
Thank you! Kristen I'm so sorry I forgot to thank you for it. Yes! It is so precious and just smells incredible. I love Yankee Candles.
Thanks for checking out my new drapes. I'm so happpy you likke them! That was a looooong overdue project. I've been thinking about changing them for at least two years. Blogging has made me decorate more that's for sure. He!
I hope Chase is doing better. Let me know when you get the check. It's in a "teeny" envelope. I should have put it in a bigger one.
~Melissa :)
Kristen, thank you so much for stopping by and your very gracious comments. I was so impressed with your beautiful rooster floral arrangement that I created a version of my own for my island. I will be showing it for my MM post. I have acknowledged you as the inspiration and referenced your beautiful post here. I sincerely hope you don't mind. Hugs, Marty
Your fall decorations look so nice. I love how you made your placemats with fabric and faux leaves. That's a great idea.
Hi Kristen!
You are so talented. I love the rooster piece, in fact I love your house. Thank you so much for the giveaway. I can't wait to get it and will post a picture of its "new home."

Now, this is one beautiful table! The colors and the centerpiece are just perfect. I absolutely adore your placemats...that's such a good idea to just put those leaves around a circle. Very smart and very creative. I also really like how you added in some fall pieces to your preexisting rooster arrangement. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Kristen,
Your fall decor is really lovely! Thank you for sharing!
Hello! I love your decor! I just found your blog and after reading this post, I decided to become a follower. Come visit my blog sometime. Have a wonderful weekend.

Thanks for the idea for the placemats. So simple and so pretty. Marty from A Stroll Thru Life mentioned your rooster display, so I had to come right over and see it. Love it!
Please feel free to stop by some time and say hello.
Kristen,
Your centerpiece creations are stunning. You gave me an idea to make my pumpkin much cuter. I just love how you made those darling placemats with the silk leaves. Your frames are beautiful with the gorgeous ribbon accenting each one. Thanks for sharing these great ideas.
