This has been a busy week with guests, but I did have a chance to get a little fall in the air before they arrived
Look closely inside the rim of the blue pot
this little tree frog was ready to greet our guests too…
I hope he’s around for Halloween!
I tucked a few faux pumpkins around the framed photos on the shelves
A lantern and a large hurricane are filled with straw orbs
A fall magazine issue arrived to perfectly match my color scheme and pumpkin pillows
Thank you Martha Stewart, how did you know?
This corner vignette hides ugly cords and plugs
The dining table is full of fat pumpkins and accented with tall grasses
A tall tiered tray holds fishing & football watching snacks with coastal and fall touches
It’s part of a Fall Hospitality Buffet
Juicy Details
I found this raw wood palette piece at Walmart and quickly realized how rough the surface was when I began painting it
I decided to modify my original design, see the PicMonkey created design below, into a 2 pumpkin stack with abstract leaves because the wood was too rough for smooth lines and details
The black patch is painted with chalkboard paint and lettered with a chalk ink pen so I can easily change the message
