Decorating Delimma

100_2029 100_2031 All of the fall decorating items have been brought in...have started and completed some vignettes...well, I may do some more tweaking as time goes on.

However, as you can tell from these two pictures...things are not completed...at a stand still for the mantel. I have stuff there...not real pleased...don't know what I want...just sort of stumped at this time. Don't want to spend anymore money on "stuff". Perhaps I will get an inspiration as time goes on.

Did find the crows I wanted at Dollar Tree this morning. I want to suspend them above my scarecrows. Now as to how I am going to pull this off...time will tell.

I had better get myself in gear and finish off this mad woman Pottery Barn copycat... now who am I kidding...all of these arrangements will definitely be "Amelia Originals"... but first, a nap.zzzzzzzz.

You're pretty darn crafty...so I know it will be pleasing to the eye. Hope your nap was good. ;)

I love all your "stuff" and you have arranged the coffee table perfectly! for the mantle, just go into your fabric stash, pick out a nice one, drape the mantle and build from there, put boxes or upside down bowls to prop some thngs higher...and viola, you're done!

It is so hard to get things to look the way you want them. I am always changing something. The mantel is a hard spot for me to figure out. Good luck on doing the framed pumpkin! I just cut it in half and hot glued it to scrapbook paper in a frame. I left the glass out. Sooooo easy!

"Amelia's Style" is Fabulous! :) I have the problem this year of trying to put out too much. I have the things from last year, and have gotten new ideas from blogland I want to try, but I'm afraid I'm getting too "fall cluttered" fast! LOL! Oh me! :)

Can't wait to see what you do with your crows and I hope you'll post pics of your other fall vignettes soon! Hope you have a great weekend! ~hugs, Rhonda :)

PS..I still like the white pumpkins too! I put them out, right or wrong! LOL!

I'll be anxious to see the finished project too.
I wish I were more creative. If I did something like this everyone would SO know I put it together. :)

Thanks for stopping by my blog. It's always nice to meet a new blogger and very nice to meet another Oklahoman!

Have a great day,
Valerie

I also put out a few things this morning. I love the base for a candle, and then add the decorations you pictured...crows would go fine too!

I am sure you will play with it until you get it right. Love the colors and pieces you have chosen so far though. I am constantly moving things around.
