Too Late for Fall Decorating?

With only 3 weeks between Halloween and Thanksgiving the fall decorations (minus Halloween) don't stay out for very long before it's time to put out the Christmas decorations.  I can't believe it's only TWO WEEKS from the time I would normally put up my Christmas tree!  I AM NOT READY PEOPLE!

I'm embarrassed to admit that I still need to box up the Halloween decor (even though I moved it all to one central location I still need to put stuff in boxes.)  But I got hit with a triple whammy and was sick about 10 days and haven't kept up around the house or with my blog.  Before it's time to put these decorations away I better share them with you real quick like.

So here is a taste of my simple, quick and easy fall decorating.


I searched the house for anything that seemed like Fall to me and placed a collection of items on the mantle.



And a small coffee table display


The entry table colors blend well with the wall decor that stay here year round.


I always like a few things in my kitchen window - because I see them the most.


A simple bunch of fall flowers in a vase.


Two items I picked up new this year.  These lovely maple leaf placements for the breakfast table (the picture doesn't do them justice). And this lovely little pumpkin carriage (which I bought broken at big discount and plan to have one of the men in my life solder back together)


And that's it!  I plan to enjoy these decorations fully for the next couple of week!

Happy Fall Y'all!

The "thrown together" collection of fall items sure came together for a very nice mantel!

Never too late for Fall decorating. However, that pool is looking pretty good now too. THanks for sharing with the newbie party.
