Fall Cloches

Cloches are so much fun to change out for the seasons. There is just something so interesting about them and so much you can do with them! 

I added little pumpkins, greenery and brass owls to mine for the fall season. It won’t be long before they will be changed out for Christmas!

Fall Kitchen Island

My kitchen island is dressed for fall! 
Oh how I love this season! The weather is getting cooler and soon the leaves will be changing colors. I hope you are all having a great start to the new season! ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿ

Fall Mantel 2019

I hope you all are having a wonderful Labor Day weekend! I’ve been busy with family but things are winding down now. Yesterday I was in the kitchen and heard a loud crash! The Harvest sign, fall arch and glass votive holders came crashing down! ๐Ÿ˜ณ It scared the cats to death and they stayed under the bed for about two hours. Poor things! The hanger on the back of the sign had come loose. I went to Pier 1 imports yesterday and bought new votive holders and they actually look better than the ones I had. So it all worked out I guess and everything is put back together. I think I am done decorating for now until I do the outside. 

Also, I will be listing new fall items tonight and they will ship tomorrow before my mom and I leave for Dallas. I’m hoping to bring home lots of fall and Christmas materials to work with! I’ll share pice while I’m there.
