Dried hydrangeas from the garden.It's still early, color has yet to appear in the trees here in the Piedmont area of North Carolina. Rain has run hard and fast, softening the Summer dried, cracked soil. Much of the new grass seed, which was to burst forth in a few weeks, has washed away down little rivulets curving through the clay mud. The robins stand about on the lawn, pecking hungrily at the seeds, maybe fueling up for their flight even further South.
Besides buying fresh pumpkins, I remembered these faux ones hiding out in the attic. Brought them down and set them out to add a little more Autumn decor around the house.........simple but nice.

Such a wonderful time of year! I love it that I can put pumpkins all round my house and no one thinks I'm nuts.
ReplyDeleteI've heard that there has been a lot of rain in the south, especially in Georgia. It seems to be either a drought or a flood.
ReplyDeleteYour fall decor is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Beautiful autumn colors!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the actual yet.
I have said this before ... but it's worth saying again ~ you have quite a flare for design and putting things together effortlessly.
ReplyDeleteLove all the pumpkins! Also wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed all your vacation pics. Your DGD reminds me so much of my sweet GD. Keep up the great blog. I always love my visits, Diane
ReplyDeleteMary, you always make me smile. Your eye for beauty inspires all of us.
ReplyDeleteWe are having our lawn reseeded this year. They are supposed to be here next week.
Guess it is time to go pumpkin shopping! My daughter reminded me we never got any last year although I don't know why. So you have been getting some rain which I know you needed some. It has been raining here all day long. I believe they said we would get about 5-6 inches. As if we don't have enough!!
ReplyDeleteI definitely like the look of your décor. I, too, really like the white pumpkins. I was thrilled to find a sack of mini pumpkins a few weeks ago for sale in the grocery. It was a great buy at $6 a bag and was full of mimi orange pumpkins, little bit larger white ones, and also white with gold and green veining. I've used them in various groupings around our home. If you are interested, take a look at my Fall Nesting post on hyacinthforthesoul.blogspot.com. I'm thrilled to have found your blog. I've linked as a follower so I'll be back to visit often. Happy Fall to you! ~ Sarah
ReplyDeleteI love those autumn touches, especially the white pumpkins.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your vignettes - how you combine just the right colors and items.
ReplyDeleteAh yes! My favorite season has arrived. I just love everything about autumn. Your decorations are just beautiful. I tried to buy a white pumpkin again this year for by my front door on my iron table but none were to be found. I hope the season has brings you many days of cool and pleasant weather.
