Welcome to our 2013 Fall front porch. In this post, I will share how Autumn Arrived At My Front Door For Under $10.00. The colors selected are a bit unconventional for autumn with shades of turquoise, teal, and pops of yellow. You may remember the front porch I created last Fall that was also under $10.00. So a challenge was definitely on. A Step Up This year's vignette began when I spied this little ladder at Goodwill. At first, I thought it was a tool for the employees. Then I ... View the Post
A Sweet Fall Tablescape
Today is my Sweet Guy’s 12th birthday. While he will be enjoying a traditional children’s party very soon I wanted to make sure that the table was decorated for a special meal. It will be just the four of us enjoying his favorite foods tonight. The centerpiece is a small wheelbarrow that Mr. Décor gave me while we were dating…16 years ago. I filled it with happy sunflowers, mums, red berries and roses as well as other bits of flora and fauna. It is surrounded by a bounty of dollar ... View the Post

Elegant Acorn Napkin Rings
I recently found myself frantically searching for my fall themed napkin rings. They were no where to be found. So I quickly got creative. I began with miniature grapevine wreaths I have had for awhile. (You can find these at most craft stores.) I had also been hanging onto some cedar acorns that once had been in several sweater drawers but had lost their scent long ago. I started priming and then remembered the “before” pictures. Oooops! Do you do that too? :) After the ... View the Post
A Fun Fall Mantel in Under 10 Minutes
I just adore decorating for the seasons. But right now with three college classes, design work and running a household for my family most of the decorating I do must fall under the “Swifty and thrifty” categories. My mantle (err fantle~faux mantle) within our entertainment center was no exception. Here's how to create A Fun Fall Mantel in Under 10 Minutes. A Fun Fall Mantel in Under 10 Minutes The biggest challenge is that the space above the television is so dark. It is like a black hole. ... View the Post
