Fall Inspiration

Fall photos near Franklin, NC, taken by Dot R. (my cousin’s wife in Florida)

It’s still quite warm here in the South and I’m not quite ready for Fall yet, but Melissa over at The Inspired Room is hosting a Fall festival of decorating ideas, so I thought I’d participate. Maybe some of the festivities will rub off on me and I’ll get in the mood for some Fall decorating at my house. These photos are all from BHG.com and I really loved the feel of them. Something about the white is very soothing for a different twist on Fall. If I do get some pumpkins for Fall, they will be white. I really don’t go crazy with a lot of decorating in my house for the autumn months, but save it up for a big show at Christmas.
Simple white pots with green moss and pinecones add a simple appeal to a mantel.
This black and white pumpkin is oh, so chic, sitting atop a black pedestal. Very elegant!
Simple acorns and leaves are probably stamped onto pillowcases for a little bit of Fall in the bedroom.
And tied wheat stalks are a nice touch for a tabletop.

Go and check out all the other links to Fall nesting ideas and see what inspires you this year. Happy Fall, it’s just around the corner!

    Love your fall decorations, Rhoda. I like to decorate with the white pumpkins too.

    It’s still warm here, but I’m ready for autumn.

    Hugs,

    Hey Rhoda!
    I love how beautiful your blog looks. I’m behind on blog reading, but, I have just read the past 3 posts and have been throughly entertained. Loved all the pics…that was some pretty kitchen! And, I love Big Lots,too. Sometimes you can find some really good picture frames, too. And the white decorating is wonderful. Love that stencilled pumpkin! I just may have to do that soon.

    I have become quite the fan of the white pumpkin. I hope to have many of them in my home within the next couple of weeks. Lovely inspiration photos. I will be looking forward to your Christmas decorating. Since I have fallen so in love with white decor, I’m hoping to truly have a white Christmas at my house.

    HEY RHODA!!

    You sound like my kind of gal! I love a bargain and estate sales and thrift shops are my delight! Love your blog (I am a newbie at blogging) and I can't wait for more visits. I live about 60miles north of you.

    So glad I found you!

    Thank you for the sweet comments you left! 🙂
    I got the white ceramic pumpkins at Hobby Lobby, but they also have them at Kohl’s, and at Target in a few weeks.
    Have a great day!

    Hey Rhoda,

    I got the Fall decorating bug now. My MIL is arriving this evening and I wanted to have it done by the time she arrived. Well, not done done but close. Anyway, I really want to buy some white pumpkins now. I absolutely love those pictures of the trees in the Fall.

    Hi Rhoda 🙂

    Those are some wonderful ideas! I was trying to think of something to do that wasn’t “cheesy” for fall and you really inspired me 🙂

    Thank you and hugs,

    It’s hard to believe that Fall is on the way. The white does look pretty and light and is a refreshing change. Beautiful!
