Fall dec

I gave in to the creative bug bite today. I painted, myself and my pumpkins, I tweaked, I adjusted and looked and tweaked again and this is what I came up with...

A vintage metal basket full of fresh crisp apples.




My Roadkill Rescued piled with frames that are to be filled with personalized art from my Etsy shop- 1blessedmama.etsy.com -and pumpkins that got a coat of paint, candle pillars I LOVE LOVE LOVE and some yard findings that got blessed with a coat of cream paint.


i TRIED to make the little silver gourds and punkins look like this

But it was a disaster! I had no silver or hammered finish spray paint, so alas they stayed silver!

Here's the before... Not that it's horrible- it just didn't go with my colors... Now it does!

The table scape in front of the window I am not quite sold on-


It has more color only because, well, I couldn't quite bring myself to paint an apple black... Sigh... I know I painted a pumpkin black, why not an apple? I don't know- I just couldn't do it! And I thought those curtains needed a little red next to them! They get lonely...I just may change all of this next week...

Even my fireplace got a nice little addition of a whimsical wire basket full of fresh pears- THANK YOU MORRIS!

Now after checkign my post I realize I forgot to windex my fireplace...and oh yeah- Brenster says hi!
