I have been decorating.....
and decorating...
and DECORATING!!!!!
I wanted to be able to show you my Fall / Autumn decorations in the front of our home and I was waiting for a beautiful sunny day to take those pictures. We had one of those last week in between bouts of torrential rain storms.....
And it looks like it may not be until next week before the sun shines here again so I ran out between rain and thunder storms and took some pictures......
It pretty much rained off and on all last week and now over the past few days , we have been getting 2-3 inches of rain at a clip causing flooding issues in areas that were flooded several weeks ago.
Such heart ache for people who just finished cleaning mud out of their basements and first floor only to have flood waters come again from creeks and streams.... Sam Champion on Good Morning America even commented on the repeat flooding in Luzerne County ( my county) in Pa.
My heart goes out to all victims of all natural disasters.....
Guns and Roses????? They are coming to the arena right by us and being the rocker that I am ( did that surprise you?) , I was lucky to score tickets for Joe, myself and our oldest son today when they had the internet pre sale! My son Joey is thrilled!!
This is the front of our home decorated for Autumn/Fall....
The Wreath I made several years ago.....
A Jack o Lantern and an Autumn sign.......
The weeping mortar on the front of our townhouse allows me to hang things......
Yes, I forgot to take Joe's ash tray out of the pictures......One of 3 Fall flags that I have. I change them through out the season....
A Fall vignette on the table....
I have been waiting for it to stop raining so I can plants these mums in my pots......
The front flower bed under the Living Room window.....It rained so hard last night that it knocked the extension off the rain gutter flooding this flower bed....
A little wagon that I bought at The Christmas Tree Shop several years ago....All pumpkins and gourds are fake!!
I use them every year....
A Fall flag that can be seen on both sides....
Then I moved in the house and I started with my Fall/Autumn tree in the Living Room.....I always have at least one tree up for every season. This tree was an Easter tree, then a Patriotic tree and now an Autumn tree.
I added a set of 100 orange lights and a set of wired pumpkin lights.
To be different , I used green ribbon with copper colored leaves to make the bow out of...
Who says that there are no ornaments for other Holidays?????
The pumpkins were bought at Big Lots and the green acorns were from Pier One several years ago.....
These copper and burgundy colored balls were bought at Micheal's last Christmas season....
Along with 2 packs of these pretty leaf ornaments.....
These are little scarecrow bells.....
The silver leaf and pine cone ornaments are from Target ,bought at the after Christmas sale.
The other ornaments were picked up at little shops over the years.....
Here they all are on the tree......
Then I added some silk mums and Fall leaves to the tree.....
And it was finished...
Here it is at night. I love the orange glow.....
Then I decorated the base of the tree....
All finished......
Now I will take you on a tour of my Living Room which I decorated more for Autumn.In my next post, I will show you my Dining Room which I decorated for Halloween!!
This is my hutch at night....
A Fall candle ring and a Harvest Time pumpkin that Joe bought on Clearance at a local department store for 99 cents!
I added some Fall leaves with glittered tips to the greenery above my curio....
An Harvest plaque on the mirror in the Hall way to the kitchen....
A Fall swag in the hall way......
One wall in the Living Room......
I added some grapevine balls, pumpkins and leaves to a crystal bowl. I was going to keep it on this ottoman but I realized that it would spend more time on the floor rather than on the ottoman.....LOL!!
So I moved it to the bottom shelf of the wash stand.....
Remember this Jack o lantern that I bought at our church Flea market.....
Here it is all lit up at night.....
Another Wreath that I made on my fake window....
Yes, we still have our air conditioners in as it has been very warm and muggy with all the rain we have been having....I am really looking forward to Fall weather if it ever decides to get here and stay here....
Here is the Autumn tree again.....
A pumpkin that I spray painted copper and glittered last year along with my Fall bears.....
Gourds in a carnival glass bowl.....
More pumpkins....
A Harvest sign....
Looking towards the front door.....
My Autumn Village.....
Some pieces are from JoAnn's Fabrics and some are from the Christmas Tree Shop.....
The inside scenes light up.....
All lit up at night.....
More pumpkins.....
The ceramic pumpkins are from the Dollar Store...
An orange tea cup....
A different type of arrangement in a vase on a plant stand by the front door.....
