Like many other bloggers,
Fall is my favorite season.
It's actually the Colonel's favorite season also.
So, the other day I asked the Colonel to please bring
my "orange" boxes up from the storage room.
Felt so good to unpack them.
I didn't unpack them last year.
My Colonel was in Afghanistan last year and
I didn't feel like decorating.
BUT...
Not this year!
I also don't go "crazy" decorating.
Just a few items to make our house look and smell pretty.
My FAVORITE scent by Yankee Candle.
Kitchen table...
An Amish bowl we've had for YEARS.
We found this bowl at a barn sale when Olivia
was a baby for only $1.00!
I love it...
The hutch in our kitchen...
Full view of our hutch.
I love this furniture...
View of our eating area in the kitchen...
Candle arrangement on the coffee table in the living room...
Dining room table...
Leaf candle holders.
I have three and this one is holding a tiny pumpkin candle...
Full view of our dinning room table...
As I said, I don't go overboard on the decorating.
Just enough to make us feel even more
warm and comfortable
in our home.
Did you decorate yet?
Leave me a comment and let me know!
I'd love to see what you did in your home!
Enjoy!

Hi, Lois! Good to see you! I missed you, too! I'm so happy that fall is here! The summer was l-o-n-g! Your fall decor is very welcoming and festive. Good job! So glad the General is back in the saddle again. God bless 'im! As far as decorating, I haven't yet, but Mom gave me a big sack of silk flowers to use, which are still in the sack. 🙂 I love pumpkins on my porch, so I'll probably get some this weekend. You're an inspiration! Better get myself busy. Take care, my friend.

Oh, I love that you decorate for fall! Very sweet!! I do not decorate for fall, I don't really like it at all because it's the prelude to 6 months of crummy winter here. lol

I have decorated the front porch and have a few things around the house that look fallish. I tend to overdo but have tried to keep it simple this year. Your home looks lovely.

Good morning! I love you Fall decor! and your warm, cozy house in general. The hutch is REALLY good and I like the way you have it done up. I also like the tablecloths etc. I decorated right after Labor day. Like you, I don't have alot (or what I haven't had for years anyway) but I love it too. Have a wonderful week-end! HUGS

I love the fall colors we are having right now.
Your decorations are pretty. I have not yet got mine out but you gave me some inspiration.
Have a nice weekend.

Your decorations look lovely! Having the Colonel home is certainly a good reason to feel like decorating! I will have to share some pictures of some of my fall decorating. Still working on the porch though--I need a mum or two. Happy fall! ~Karen
