15 Minute Fall Decorating

I (used to) love spending hours decorating my house for different seasons. I have a pile of stuff that I have accumulated over the years to draw from. Unfortunately the changes we have had to make here have sent all my stuff out of my nice walk in attic (SO easy to grab a few things quickly) to another attic only accessible by a drop down staircase in my closet. As a result, I am behind ALL the time with seasonal decorating. Consequently, I have developed a rapid decorating method which just scatters a few seasonal things areound and makes me feel better. Who knows, maybe this is God’s plan to make me simplify…but I do really miss how pretty my house was before. Anyway…that’s what we’re up to today. Fifteen minutes of changes……

I have a buffet in my back hallway which is usually a repository for shopping bags and other stuff. But today, with a white metal tray, an ironstone bowl, a plant, some chunky potpourri and fake fruit…we have TAH-DAH:

Next item. I have this wire cage thing. I don’t know what it was for originally, I have had it for years. I think it came from my in-laws house but I can’t even remember now. It has been turned upside down with a wrought iron filigree thing as a top, I’ve turned it upside down over something else for decoration and now it is sitting on a table with a silver tray in the bottom and pillar candles inside…..
