♥ Decorating for fall ♥

Just wanted to share with you some of my fall decorations. I've done a little here and there, and finally have the motivation to share them with you. Some of them I've been enjoying for a few weeks. I just ♥ fall!


Entry Decorations:

{Got the idea from the Nester in this post. It literally took me 3 minutes}

{White pumpkins from Michaels a few years ago. White candlesticks from my bedroom, bought at a yard sale}


Dining Room:

{Small ceramic pumkins on place settings, $.25 on clearance at Walgreens last year}

{Gourds: $1 from a yard sale last Sat. Plastic grapes were free from my mama}


{Tray was $.50 at a yard sale a couple weeks ago}



Living Room Decorations:

{Our living room shelves with just a hint of fall}

{Maddie & I made this banner for Thanksgiving last year, but forgot to take it to the in-laws. Was supposed to have everyone's list of what they're thankful for. I haven't figured out what I want to put on it now}


{Glass thingys from a yard sale. $1 each. Painted the bases black. Dollar store pumpkins}

{White pumkins from a school carnival we went to on Saturday}


{Milk glass & Dollar Store pumpkins. Ahhh}




Front Door/outside:

{Wreath: $2 at a yard sale. Hung it on the door right when I got home. The 'F' was already hanging on the door, so I just stuck it in.}

{oh how I wish I could paint those planters black. They're my mama's, so maybe I can convince her.}


{I know, you're scuuuured.}


{Silk flowers I got at a yard sale. Brand new with the tags. $.50 to $1 per piece Arrangement to come}


Did I mention that I fall??


***Edited: I'm adding this post here:

hello pretty decorations! please come to my house! :) i'm in awe - I just don't have the energy to decorate right now.

Everything looks super fab, Amber! I have no motivation this year. Usually I am the first to decorate for everything, but this studying is killing me. I haven't even visited or posted in over a week! I am really slipping these days!

Miss your blog!

I LOVE fall too! We barely have anything out. I'm still trying to paint the bedroom-ugh! Wish me luck b/c I'm going to go buy some diff colors in pints tomorrow b/c round one was no bueno!

Looks awesome!

This is the very first year I have ever decorated fall...in 9 years of owning a home! I have only just started with some minor things, hoping to do more over the next week or so before I show it off with some pics

Pamela October 6, 2009 at 3:12 AM  

Beautiful! Decorating is not my thing but after looking at your pics it makes me want to decorate. Have a wonderful day. :-)

I love your decorations. But I have a question: how do you keep your youngest from taking everything apart?

Allyson October 6, 2009 at 11:39 AM

I love your fall decor, it looks great!

My daughter informed me that we don't have enough fall decor. OK, Hobby Lobby here we come!!!!

I love the front door decorations, very cute. And the banner in the living room is great, just a touch of color. You have a great eye and are really creative. I'm impressed and inspired!

HouseMama October 7, 2009 at 10:00 AM  

Your fall decorations look awesome. You're doing a great job! (and don't worry about serving Taco Bell for dinner - you're so entitled to do that - especially when you're pregnant!)

~~Mel~~ October 10, 2009 at 8:46 AM  

I love your sense of style! Very nice!

pk October 22, 2009 at 8:45 PM  

Very pretty! Really like your "monogrammed" front door wreath, too.

Beautiful decor...love those white pumpkins on the candle holders!! Also, I'm very fond of your red door...I have one myself ;-) It takes a special person to pull of a red door!!!

Shelia October 23, 2009 at 6:14 AM
