White Pumpkins = The Perfect Solution!!!
I am not a big fan of fall colors...never have been...at least not inside my home. I love to see the trees change color as the summer gives way to fall, but I enjoy looking at those colors outside and prefer to keep my home fairly neutral when it comes to the changing of the seasons. My mantel did need a bit of a lift though, and the bright pink flowers I had on it previously were a bit too summery. So, I took a quick trip to my dear ol' Hobby Lobby and found the perfect solution...white pumpkins! I added a bit of fake greenery, or "faux-liage" as sweet Ms. Layla of TLC calls it! That with a bit of real moss tucked inside of my mason jar made for a perfectly neutral fall display. Just a hint of Autumn is all right with me!
Love the white pumpkins Gracie! I like Fall colors...but because they don't match every room in our house I love that blue & white pumpkins are available. They even have those gnarly greyish ones that are lovely. Something I've really enjoyed collecting for my Fall decor is porcelain pumpkins. They never go bad! ;0) I've gotten some at Hobby Lobby...and this year I found some sweet little ones at the Dollar Tree! White ones too! I'm looking forward to decorating for Fall...but my rule is....not until Oct. 1st. We'll see if I abide by that....haha.
LOVE YOU!!!! You're so creative and I always like what you end up doing with your adorable home. ;0) Very inspiring.

ReplyDeleteI have GOT to get crackin' on my fall decor... I've got my wreath up, but it's still summer on the inside of my house. Thanks for the inspiration!
