A Touch of Autumn


When it's time to decorate for Fall I always take out my old magazines and look through them for inspiration.


It's fun to shop your own house for decorations. Or maybe even the backyard. I was planning to go with a neutral palate. Perhaps I have read one too many Jeanne D'Arc magazines lately.


I brought out the velvet pumpkins and the Fall wreath.  It looked boring. So I added a strand of battery operated twinkle lights I had tucked away for Christmas and voila just the right amount of bling it needed!


I picked up this little Fall wreath and decided to put it around a flameless candle. The brown transferware gravy boat finished the vignette.


 I looked to see what Fall touches I might add to this corner of my kitchen. I decided it did not need anything more. It has a lot going on already . It's good to know when to say when.


Percy for once was staying out of my way as I put a few decorations in place.


But then of course, he had to photobomb my shot. I knew he wanted his coffee. Yes, he is a caffeine addict. He gets high on the smell of coffee. He has tried numerous times to snag a sip of coffee. Luckily he has not and never will succeed. He's wired enough!

I had a great weekend. I decorated, spent time with the kitties, did a daytrip to Hamilton and another one to Concord. I'll post about all my adventures throughout the week so don't forget to check in often.

Hi Elaine
As usual Percy cracks me up. He still has a bit of the kitten about him rather than the big grown up boy he should be!

Hope you are enjoying your fall looks like we're in for a stinker if a summer this way. Take care xxx Julie
You always make your house so attractive during the holidays, Elaine! I'm sure the kitties approve ; )
