Autumn Decor

Just a few pictures of my Autumn decor for the season….

…one of my mixed-media paintings with a lovely Albert Camus quote. 

I have simplified my decor this season….nothing too elaborate…

autumn1

…simple seems “right” this year.  A few dried…

autumn2

hydrangeas….ceramic pumpkins…and a vintage runner in Autumn tones.  My table centerpiece is a recent garage sale find…..

autumn3

…One of those long, narrow wood pieces with the tea light  candle holes drilled out.  Of course, I had to paint it white and distress it.  The vases are vintage spice jars that just fit perfectly in those tealight candle holes! A few leaf sprigs from our Japanese maples that are turning colors right now.   And…of course…more of those white pumpkins:)   Love my bell jars and vintage pedestal silver…..

I can always find a “seasonal item” to put under these.  And..it wouldn’t be Autumn without my brown and cream…

transferware out and about to, visually, enjoy.  This is one of my favorite pieces with its aged beauty….cracks and all:)

And….it, also,  wouldn’t be Autumn without a visit to the Pumpkin Farm!

Having our Austin with us made it even more special this year:)!

I will be joining White Wednesday at Faded Charm Cottage this week.  Please join us!

Happy Autumn everyone!

  3. Oh how fun! Going to the pumpkin patch. I can hardly wait to take my little grand (he's just 4 months). Looks like he had a wonderful time.
    Love your painting.
