Fall has finally arrived in my family room. I thought that I could get more Fall decorating done this past weekend but it just didn't work out. I kept it simple in the family room this year. Here is how the fireplace turned out.
The candles in the sconces and on the mantel are battery operated. They give a nice warm glow in the evening.
I made flower arrangements for each side the the fireplace.
I added a few pumpkins to the stacking boxes that I have on the left side of the fireplace.
I added just a few touches of Fall to the table on the far left of the fireplace.
I did the same for the table on the right side of the fireplace.
I added some Fall to my tray on the coffee table.
I added some pumpkins to the top of the entertainment center. It is easier just to add pumpkins then remove everything and add other items.
I was going to put some orange leaves with the pumpkins but it looked too clutter. Not that is already does but the leaves were way too much. I decided to put them on the bottom shelf around a candle holder. I use this shelf to hold extra candle sticks. Since it is near the ground you don't notice them that much. Now it hides them while looking pretty. At least it does to me.
I am hoping to get the kitchen done later this week one night after work and possibly get entry and dining room done this weekend.

Everything looks great Jody! Pretty fall arrangements on your hearth and love how you decorated your stacking boxes. Good luck finding some time to finish the rest of your decorating - I know I have to squeeze a bit of "decor time" in here and there! It's good therapy!
ReplyDeleteThank you Lori. I got started in the kitchen this morning before work but the pictures turned out too dark. I will have to retake them tonight.
DeleteVery festive decorating....enjoy your traditional Fall colors, that is what I use too mostly,
ReplyDeletecourse, it is because I have accumulated them over 30 some odd years. lol
Really liked how you layered the Fall love picture over your other decorative frame.
Happy Fall.....
