Fall Party

Hello everyone and welcome to the Fall Party hosted by Rhondi at Rose Colored Glasses. Please visit her blog for a list of participants and to join in all the party fun!


These are random Fall decorations from around my home. I decorate slowly...taking my time and really enjoying the process.

I truly love sunflowers...they make me smile. This is an arrangement on my family room coffee table.

This Fall....I seem to have a 'thing' for squirrels. Ha!





This is an arrangement on my kitchen island.

I love pumpkins...they are among my all time favorites!

A wreath in my kitchen...I love the softness of it.




An arrangement on the sideboard in my family room.

This ceramic pumpkin is one of my very favorite Autumn decorations.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed looking. Happy Fall!

  3. I love the pictures. I thought the little brown squirrel was precious. I think I have the pumpkin with the lid on it. I love mine. I love fall decorations. I am putting mine up this weekend. Thanks for all the ideas. I also love the candied apples on the header...made me want one.

  18. Wonderful decorating, Barb...you have the magic touch when it comes to taste and elegance. I also love the squirrels, real ones too. My neighbors hate them, but I love seeing them in yard, digging in my potted plants, and watching trees grow next to a rose...I know that's weird, but they are just too cute to be mad at.

    Happy Autumn...God bless!

I wish I had more time to do these great blog parties, but I may have to hold off until we get a vacation from school. I sure did enjoy your Rooster party at the end of August!

  59. I'm the gal who asked your permission to use your tea photos for my watercolor. I've not got down what I want yet, it's definitely a WIP. I now am just trying to set up a scene as you would so I can work real life. I've downloaded alot of your music and use that to paint by. I find your(music)selections very pleasant as well as the terrific decorating. thanks for letting me visit, Ral
