Fall Decorating 2010 Part One

He always has his nose in my photo-shoots

-
~ I glittered the pumpkin ~
First time to try spray glitter... it comes in a can,
like spray paint. But half the size and twice the price.
For some things I think it is worth it,
as it was to quickly glitter up this pumpkin, which is more
sparkly than it looks in the photo. really.

This little birdy made a nest in a shoe
-

She is so cute, so I let her stay

-

The size of the beautiful autumn scarves this year!

Large enough to use as a table runner

when not being worn
-

Re-decorated the bookcase

Lots of Sommerset Studio magazines and others

published by them, now easier to see and re-read.

The expression on this dog figurine always makes me

S M I L E

Lassie Came Home

-

I've been collecting a few dog figurines

and birds. many birds.

okay, and nests.

and sayings about birds and nests

-

Found these white ceramic pumpkins last year

on sale after the season was over... at an antique store.

I will use them at each place setting on

Thanksgiving Day

-

Until then, they will decorate the dining room table
-

I'm not one for much orange color

But love the white pumpkins on the table for Fall
-

Could not give up all of the beach decor yet

So why not place some shells in a nest

(did I mention I like birds and nests???)

-

A photo I took at Pottery Barn

Just think of all the decor we could do if we just hung

boards from the ceiling with ropes.

(If Pottery Barn can do it, why not?!?)

-

Also at Pottery Barn

this huge bird cage ... now that could be fun decor!

(and very pricey)

-

Most of my Fall decor is in two bins still out in the garage.

I am in the middle of dividing my studio into two rooms

so the Fall decorating is on hold for a bit longer

except for the dining room.

and the

glittered pumpkin

-

I am sitting at my computer in a room that was once

so pretty and organized, and it will be once again,

as I am moving my 'working studio' (aka ~ often messy

with creative explosions) stuff upstairs to the room

that is directly above my studio,

that was my husbands home office,

as he has another space for his now

SO I HAVE GAINED ANOTHER ROOM!

See, the problem was not

that I have too much stuff after all,

it was I didn't have two rooms to put it all in.

-

That's my story and

I'm stickin' to it.
