Hello Monday! How nice to see you again!
The weather here is beautiful this week even as the leaves are turning colour.
I am working on creating touches of fall around the house still...sprinkling a little bit here and there.
I have to say that the 'mantel' is one of my favourite areas to decorate...even though it takes me a little while to 'play' with it until I get it just so.
This mantel started with the yellow sunflowers....with white and brown as the main colours and some orange added in.
I added in my grandmother's knitting basket filled with pine cones, along with some wool carders that belonged to my great grandparents and are over 100 years old.
I love the mix of old and new together.
I cannot wait to see all of the fall decorating that will be happening around blogland in the next few weeks.
We bloggers are such a crazy talented bunch!

i love the colors, just right for fall and they are so cheery too
This looks lovely, Angie! I love the pinecones mixed in with the pumpkins. I used some small ones in teacups this year myself.
Great mix of light and dark, new and old! That mirror is always a gorgeous centrepiece, too. Are you gourds real or fake? They look so lush!
Gorgeous!!! I love all of the colors. You always decorate so pretty. After seeing everyones fall mantels.. I am really wishing that I had one to decorate!
Beautiful!
Love all the colours! Wish I had a pretty mantel like that to decorate!

Looks so pretty - I love sunflowers too. I like how you've incorporated the books and other things and 'sprinkled' them all with fall :)

BEautiful mirror! Love that mantel!
Very Cute! I really want that white owl {no, really - can you tell me where you got it?}. Great job on your mantle. I love that you included the vintage/antique items from your grandparents - like you said, the mixture of the old and knew makes it special.
P.S. Found you at Nifty Thrifty!
A very lovely fall mantel, and of course the owl is adorable. I really love that mirror, and the whole vignette really is so very pretty. Thanks for sharing your inspiration with Sunday’s Best – you helped make the party a success!
I adore your cute white owl!!! So fun with the yellow and brown sunflowers and orange pumpkins. I have a couple owls that I am now going to spray paint white after seeing yours:-) Very cute!!!
Great vignette!

I am totally fascinated by all this seasonal decorating that goes on in the US. We don't really get into this in the UK unless it's Christmas.
