VERY nice, Luvs. I especially like the 2nd photo! So pretty. And you know I really loved the crow Fall sign when you made it, and that extremely adorable Scarecrow with the acorns you painted.

hugs, Karen

Luvs...I never tire of seeing all your lovely decorations.
I just love looking at all your 'Creations'. You are truly Amazing...and you do it all so Fast too...like a machine!!
lol. The table in front of your fireplace is really lovely and so cozy looking. With all the hot weather you get..do you ever make a fire? Love how that Tea server looks on the tray with the hurricane. The florals and gourds all compliment each other nicely. I really like how you displayed your wreath by the fireplace. I've never seen that before and that's very clever. How is it hanging?
Another of your adorable signs, with that crow on the pumpkins..so cute. Now, I really can't get over how amazing that new Lantern you got, goes with your painted tray. They actually look like a 'Set', with the acorns and matching colors. You must have been so thrilled when you found it...it's so 'you' !! lol

Once again, I enjoyed seeing all your beautiful decorations. Your home is filled with so much love and creativity..and I just love seeing that.

Happy Birthday Shauna (luv2gro)!

Thanks very much, all. I spent a very quiet birthday which was just the way I wanted it. This was the big five oh and my extended family wanted to have a big surprise party but DS #2 had hockey, DS #3 had a concert he wanted to go to and DS #1. . . well at least he stopped by unannounced to have a piece of cake with me. That in itself is a big birthday present. I really, really did not want the big soiree. I threw a big surprise party for my oldest brother 6 years ago and they all figured that I would want the same thing. Fortunately, DH and my best friend both stepped in and said that they knew I wouldn't want it. My best friend (since we were 12) brought me over fifty roses - red and soft ivory. They are absolutely gorgeous. They filled my 2 biggest vases. I used your preservative recipe for them, Pudge and they still look fantastic today. For the life of me, Marcia, I can't find the date for the autumn equinox in 1957. My mother brought me up telling me that I was born on the first day of fall so I've always thought of myself as a fall baby. Anyone have a perpetual calendar showing equinoxes and solstices from that ancient date? I've never really thought to search it out before. BTW, I decided yesterday that age reverses at this plateau. Next year I will be 49, the year after that 48, etc, etc. It's all a state of mind, isn't it? : ) When I told my brother that, he laughed and said that would mean I would be playing with dolls again in 40 years. He's probably right. I've had a really, really hectic summer this year (thus my silence) but hopefully, by mid-Oct. things will have settled down and I will be joining in with all of you again.

Karen, I know you love fall and your helping me get into it more and more every year.LOL Candy, I sure hope you start decorating for fall soon. I love seeing how many things we all have alike on here. If I wasn't so busy with work, I would try to make up a calendar for different scapes we could all do different months. Seems like we all feed off of each other so well! I found three little cowboy boots that hold a dish that I need to share with all of you. Not that special but pretty cute. Ready to send me your plates to go with so I can set a table?haha Jeanne, the top plates are 222 Fifth PTS "Leah". Did I tell you I came across a few 'Jewel Tea' dishes at an estate sale this summer? If I remember correctly, there was maybe 5 pieces for $100. Yep you guessed it, I came home empty handed.Sigh Nana, should I send the matching pm and napkins?LOL I see that you have another post that's calling me so I'm excited to check it out. Your so great to keep us entertained! Marlene, thanks so much for being here with us and always commenting. Now it's my turn to check out your post.WOOHOO Jane, I so miss all your wonderful decor and ts. Was great you had time to share a few with us this summer. You do such an amazing job and we miss it when your not here inspiring us. Fun2BHere, it's wonderful to have you here posting with us! The top plates as I mentioned above to Jeanne are 222 Fifthe PTS International 'Leah' Fine Porcelain China. Thanks for all you wonderful comments ladies. Your the Best bunch ever. Hope this forum picks up and more continue to join in. Oh forgot the tan dishes are Tabletops Gallery 'Isabella'. FYI, the tureen on the right and the bowls are a set. Punk

Fall wall decor and garage decor
Q
Comments (9)
Oh, I love that you decorated by your entry from your garage. Everyone comes into my house thru the garage too! We recently put in a brand new entryway door & even that thrills me evertime I come home & see it. We had a big old wooden door for years & DH decided to update with a new aluminum door, with a full window, our wooden one had a small window that was too high for anyone to see out. I bought a door sign in Florida to decorate my new door, it says "All dogs are pets, but Shih Tzus are family", it looks so cute on my new door, so I guess I have my garage entry decorated just a little bit! Wish I had room for a small table like you did, but too many skateboards, bikes etc. out there! LOL All of your holiday decor is looking great, there have been so many posted lately, want to make sure I didn't miss anyone.

Fall Tree Decor & Barnwood Bench Bonus!
Q
Comments (10)
Thanks, "holiday-ers!" My vine tree is alot of fun to decorate but changing the lights out tends to be hard on breakage of the vines...so that's why I opted to just keep rice lights on permanently & added the orange underneath...it does look cool at night. Nope, I didn't make this one...yrs ago at a craft show I saw homemade ones & loved 'em...but too expensive...this one I got in a small town, after holidays sales & have been tickled with it. LOL about the barn bench...I told DH when he brought it into the house for me to see (before the FMrkt sale), that I love everything he makes & if it didn't sell, I'd be using that honey! LOL! Purplemoon, it wouldn't ship too well...too many $$$! And keep looking for your tree...it may happen yet! Thanks again, everyone! Enjoying all these Fall/Halloween posts! Jeanne S.

Luvs,

Looks like you were a busy lady today! Everything looks great. Your black cat and trees are so cute in the first photo. I didn't know you had a fireplace but it looks great with all your fall decorations. I too am curious how much you use your fireplae.

I haven't seen your crow and pumpkin plaque but really like it. Your fall lantern and tray do look great together and your last picture is also pretty. What is your pumpkin made of? Great job and TFS.

There's that plate again - the one in the last photo. I remember seeing it last year and just loving it. Still think it is grand.

Goodness, I didn't realize my pictures came out so blurry! I either need a new camera or to use a tripod- my apolgies for such poor quality. Thanks for all your sweet comments in spite of the blurry pics. Luvs

Everything looks so nice, Luvs, I love the amber colored cloche and the plate with the maple leaves. Your new lantern looks really nice with the scarecrow tray. - Gail

Everything's great! Love the spooky black kitty & trees with your picture frame decorations. That's a nice setting! Your painted scarecrow tray and lantern along with the plaque and floral arrangement are really showy!
