Fall Nature Vignette

I wasn't even sure if I was going

to do any outdoor decorating this year.

But, the weather was beautiful

and I couldn't resist the call of the outdoors.

Before I knew it I was snipping a bit from here

and a bit from there and putting it all together

to make a natural fall arrangement.

I used some dry strawflowers

from a flowerbed I cleaned out,

some dried weeds and some fall branches.

I added the driftwood from our spring holiday

at the ocean for interest.

A simple fall arrangement

made from things around the yard,

and it didn't cost me a penny!

Fall Leaves Tablescape

One of my favorite things about fall

is all the different colors of leaves on the trees.

So I decided to do a simple tablescape

of fall leaves.

I started with a two-toned brown tablecloth

with a delicate leaf pattern

which also has a bit of shine.

I added a candle centerpiece with a leaf theme

and then added some extra foilage down the table.

The orange charges add some fall color.

I then added my favorite plates 

and added a green accent plate.

It needed a little something else

so I dug out these little plates

that feature birds.

After all, another one of my favorite things

about fall is watching the migrating birds.

I little fall leaf candle tops it all off.

Some fall colored napkins

and beaded napkin rings

bring together all the colors of fall.

What are your favorite colors of fall?

Thanks so much for stopping by!
