Fall is in the air

Fall has officially started even though by the calender it started a couple of weeks ago. This last week we went from wearing shorts to wearing pants and sweaters. A complete 180 in the change of the weather. I am excited to for the leaves to finally change color. I will say though that with the changing of leaves comes the cold weather. I seem to be cold all the time. I have to wear socks and slippers most of the time. I don't like that about fall. On the 1st of October I decorated the house for the fall. I realized after I decorated that I really don't have Halloween decorations. I have a couple of things but most is for the fall. The nice thing is I won't have a lot to take down. I bought a few new things as well. I have taken pictures of some of my favorites in the house. My favorite it my piano and candy corn tree.


I love the wreath on my piano. It looks so good. My friend saw it and then went out and bought a wreath and wreath stand for her grand piano.


My plant shelf. The lights are set on a timer so they are off during the day and then go on in the evening. I love having a timer and also a electrical plug in on my plant shelf.


My sofa table I love. I love the wicker balls with the fall leaves in it as well as my candy corn tree. It was really cheap to do as well. The vase was $2 at Walmart, the candy corn cost me $2 at Winco and the twigs came from the neighbors bushes. I wrapped the stem of the twigs with plastic wrap so it isn't touching the candy corn. When ever we walk by it we take one or two. It is a really cool looking decoration but a tasteful one as well.


I love how cute my candy corn tree is . Such an easy and cheap decoration.


I love my hurricane with the little pumpkins and then this other Southern Living decoration with fall leaves, berries and pumpkins it in. There is another dark shelf directly below it and it also has a hurricane that looks exactly like this one directly below it.

I have always loved your style. I still need to post pictures of my house and I think that it would look nicer if I had decorations up. So, I might do this too.
