Welcome to the 2nd week of the Autumn Blog Hop
hosted by Rachelle of My Hubbard Home

This week we are focusing on shopping {Yay!} and Fall must haves
I know you were wowed if you’re coming from Calypso in the Country
I just love Shelley’s style!

My number 1 Fall must have is pumpkins!
Pumpkins are just now making their way to Alabama
I found some great ones at Trader Joe’s last week

I also ordered faux pumpkins for decorating and crafts
You can see the steps for this Fall Centerpiece here

I found a variety of great faux pumpkins on Amazon
source here and here and here

I made these decorative pumpkins for my daughter last week
with gold paint and gold foil

My second Fall must have is seasonal flowers
I am crazy for sunflowers !

I bought some great faux ones on Amazon here
I filled a tall glass canister with them to decorate a shelf

I tucked some into my Tiered Art Tray

And made Sunflower Vignette in the kitchen
{I told you I was crazy for sunflowers!}

I also ordered faux mums, and other Fall stems here and here and here

I used some of them to decorate large candlesticks I already had
to use on the mantel
You can see the tutorial here


I must confess to being all about decorative tiered trays right now,
and I love my Tiered Art Tray so much
that I couldn’t bear to take it apart and style it with another theme
so I caved and got another one here
I found the scarecrow at Publix!

I also bought some wood plaques here and spoons here
that I plan to paint for future tiered tray decorations

Currently, the tiered tray is a “Pumpkin Patch”
with the scarecrow guarding his pumpkins


I hope I’ve given you some ideas for Fall fun, decorating and shopping!
Next stop Mantel and Table, prepare to be treated to an elegant experience!

I especially want to thank these ladies for the understanding,
prayers and support they gave me last week
upon learning I was impacted by Hurricane Sally
Fortunately our damage was limited to roof, boats and pier,
while so many lost much much more
Please continue to send prayers to the Gulf Coast
and West Coast as people are struggling to recover
🙏

Still lovin’ your cute black and white truck Jenna! Fall is shaping up in grand style in your house. I feel the call to visit another pumpkin patch soon 🙂
Thank you Mary! I do love my truck 🙂
Ooooh Jenna, what great ideas you’ve shared for Fall! I love the kitchen sunflower vignette with your painted truck and all the happy, cheery decor. You’ve styled your new tray so perfectly. Happy first week of Fall!
Thank you Kitty, I have been very busy trying to keep my mind off the coast
Love all your must haves, same for me with some too. You did a specular table with your table setting, love your sunflowers and pumpkin centerpiece. The pumpkins for your daughter are so pretty too. I really think your art supplies make a gorgeous decorative piece on its own and love how you add seasonal touches like sunflowers. Those tiered stands are great!
Thank you Emily, crafting and decorating are keeping me distracted 🙂
I like the way you have decorated the house for fall. I like the cute red truck and the trays are just great. Happy Fall Jenna.
So many great fall ideas – and I always love how you style your tiered tray! Happy Fall to you and prayers for the gulf coast. I hope all your damage gets repaired soon. Take care!
Shelley
Thank you Shelley, another fun hop!
I love the way you decorated your house for fall Jenna. The little red truck is just adorable and I like the trays. Happy Fall!
Thank you Julie!
Everything looks beautiful and so festive! Sunflowers are my favorite too 🙂
Thank you Martha!
Jenna, I love your tiered tray with the scarecrow. You always have the best ideas and are so creative. I can never have enough pumpkins, they have exploded on my porches! Happy Wednesday!
Thank you Pam, I want to get some more pumpkins for the outside too when the weather gets a little cooler. I look forward to seeing your porches!
It looks wonderful. I love all the elements you shared. Pumpkins — I’m such a sucker for them. Big and small. I just bought more on my way home from the doc today! Cheers!
Me too, I need a trip to the pumpkin patch!
Jenna, you must be a busy bee! All of these projects are a perfect nod to fall. I’m so excited to finally have some crisp air and a few rainy days. I’m slowly putting out fall things here. Pulled out the velvet pumpkins this mornig! Happy First Week of Autumn!
ohh I love velvet pumpkins, have fun decorating Sarah!
Jenna, all of your autumn must haves add so much spark to a home during the fall. You use them so creatively with table setting, vignettes and tiered trays.
I can understand not wanting to breakdown the first tray – it’s just too pretty to take apart!
So glad your hopping with us
RR
Thanks so much Rachelle!!
Jenna, you have so many fall pretties! I agree pumpkins and sunflowers are perfect for autumn decorating. The pumpkins you made for your daughter are beautiful, and I love the sunflower vignette you created in the the kitchen. Happy Fall!
Thank you Shannon!
What a lovely collection of Autumn must-haves! I can’t agree enough about pumpkins, both real and artificial. I would also second the tiered tray! I keep one on my kitchen island to decorate for the seasons or holidays, but that art one is AMAZING! Happy Fall!
Thank you Chloe, I know I’m terribly late to get on the tiered tray kick, but wow, do I love love the possibilities and fun they are. My art supplies have never been more organized or accessible!
Jenna I love how you showed us what you did with your fall finds – so inspiring! Your pumpkins, sunflowers, and tray are marvelous!
Happy Fall, and SO nice hopping with you!
Thank you Barbara! It was a great hop!
You have such talent for decorating, Jenna! Thanks for sharing with Creative Compulsions.
