Decorating Done...

Let's say everything I was going to decorate for fall has been completed. But that certainly is not to add that I won't go back and tweak it again...or get a wild idea and have to try it.

First off, these pictures don't seem to show everything as well as it looks in person...just could not seem to get good shots...reflections. bad lighting, bad photographer, or something. But you get the idea. Keep in mind, I had fun....and will get enjoyment looking at what I accomplished.

Perhaps you noticed there was a common use of a one thing in most of the locations. No, not the pumpkins or leaves. Yes, I said picture frames were my new favorite item to use. You can see I place a lot of the items in the frames...when cleaning I can just move the frame and everything stays in place...Ladies, it took me a while to create this - I don't want to mess it up every week when dusting. Lazy perhaps, no I want to say "smart". thinking.

This is not all of the decorations...but a large portion of them.

New week - new opportunities - what are you plans - I have no major ones, but lots of small ones.

God Bless!

Everything looks so good. I cannot believe it is fall. It will be Christmas before we know it. My Give Away announcement will be tomorrow. I have never had one so I am so excited. I sound like a kid!

Such pretty fall touches. I love the fall colors, it just seems to warm everything up. The big vase of leaves and pumpkins scattered around is great! Jackie

Love that wreath, and the royal blue with the fall colors is really nice...you may have started a new design trend! :O) Hope you have a great fall! Can't believe it's already October!

I like your new fall look. The first picture with all of the red and gold leaves is especially nice. I love the fall colors.

I'm glad you had fun doing it, that's the most important thing I think. And now you'll have a few months to enjoy!
