FALL MANTLE


Good Morning!
And the Fall decorating "saga"continues! LOL

Like I said before, this year I have been taking my time changing our home from Summer to Fall decor and I have also decided to use mostly what I already had.

I made a couple of new pillows and played around with burlap, but, for the most part, my Fall decor is very similar to what I did last year, specially my mantle, but I think it will do. 

Here is my Fall 2013 mantle.


This year I used a long basket for a centerpiece to which I added ceramic pumpkins in different sizes and colors, 
a Fall garland and pine cones.






I made a simple burlap banner to change things up a bit.




And for the rest of the mantle I used the same items I had from last Fall.








For the hearth I made two new pillows using the fabric I had leftover from last year and I added a leaf tray 
and a large ceramic pumpkin.






A matching platter and candle on the coffee table.


And this is what the family room looks like.




I hope you enjoyed this little tour of our mantle and family room decorated for Fall. 

Now, I just have to decorate my front porch. 
I have everything almost ready but we are supposed to have some heavy rain coming this week, 
so I figured I wait just a little bit longer.

Thank you all for stopping by for a visit.
See you soon!

  5. Absolutely gorgeous, Maria Elena! I love the colors you decorated with. My eye was immediately drawn to that pretty basket in the center of your mantel. Very pretty! We're supposed to get some of that rain too. I sure hope we get a lot. We're still in a drought down here. Hope you have a great day!
