Fall Vignettes

"Vignettes." Isn't that just the most marvelous word? I don't think I've ever said it out loud...but it sounds good in my head. I feel very Anne-of-Green-Gables-ish when I say it.

Vignettes. Vignettes. Vignettes!



OK, I'm done now.

I have a shocking confession to make. I don't do Halloween. I don't do spooky. My kids can dress up and go trick-or-treating and all that, but I don't choose to decorate with skeletons or shrunken heads or disembodied hands. I'm quirky like that!



But I do love Fall with a deep and abiding passion! I already showed you some of my Fall favorites here and here. Here are the rest of my Fall favorites.

My bookshelf gets a little Autumn color on the top. I think that is because I finished these shelves last Fall, and they looked a little bare--so I splurged on some garland. It was a new thing for me to decorate for anything but Christmas...and now I CAN'T STOP!!





I showed these scales in a previous post. I sold the one in the case, and just kept the two I love. And yes, I know it's not Thanksgiving yet--but "Give Thanks" are surely words to live by in any season!

I had to go to Hobby Lobby to find some flowers to fill my little urn.





The candle holders are a new addition. The one on the right used to be white--it's now ORB. The one on the left used to be two candleholders (brown). I flipped one upside down and glued it to the other one, and now I have one TALL candleholder! (Or pumpkin holder, if you want to be persnickety about things.)





Here's my little entry table again. There are pinecones and a knitted pumpkin in the basket, and one more...





...yes, I jumped on the silver pumpkin bandwagon! Oh, Pottery Barn, how we love thee! I bought a few inexpensive foam pumpkins and Hobby Lobby, and sprayed them silver. Why are they so appealing? My theory is they make us feel Cinderella-ish!



Cinderella-ish?



Anne-of-Green-Gables-ish??



OK, I'm lousy at making up my own words! I'll go back to chanting Vignettes softly to myself...



Happy Fall, everyone!!
