Hey guys!! Happy Fall… Whoop!! I’m so excited to finally be saying that!  After way too many weeks of 100+ degree weather here in Texas I have never been so happy for Fall.  I just wanted to show you my first few touches.  I ran across these cuties in the paint section at Lowe’s several months ago.

I loved them! They are perfect for so many things and I was finally inspired to actually purchase one when the pumpkins came out this year… Woohoo!  I just bought a bunch of different pumpkins and gourds from a local nursery and put them in the tub.

Not much of a tutorial here 🙂  Just fill it up and put it on a table somewhere.  I used mine for my dining table centerpiece.  It will be great during Winter too filled with other goodies!  Great $10 investment… Thank you Lowe’s!
I also wanted to do a pumpkin stack in my entry right by the stairs.  I bought these super cute pumpkins in different sizes so I could stack them… So cute… And it required no spray paint 😉

I also found these great silver pumpkins at Marshall’s last week!  I paid $13 for both together which I thought was a steal!  They look like they came from Pottery Barn with a much prettier price tag.

Here are just a few more touches I added this week.  I found this great galvanized container at Michael’s for $3 on clearance.  My younger sister and I ran across these cherry blossom stems at Michael’s too.  I am very anti-silk flowers in my own home but these were so cute to me!!  I added a bit of dried curly willow in with it.

I also found this antique rice bowl at my trip to Round Top last Fall.  I change it out with different goodies and for now it is full of baby pumpkins and gourds.  Did I mention that I LOVE Fall :)!??

So again… Not really a tutorial here but I did want to show you a few ways I am changing out the seasons at my house.  Have you gals been getting ready for Fall??  We would love to see some of your pics! Link them up to our Facebook page so we can see them and share them with our other readers!!  Have a happy Monday… I am going outside!!

  1. Love those punkins.

    If you have a moment, please stop by and enter my Fab Fall French Giveaway.

  2. OH I LOVE THE TUB I am off to Lowe's to see if I can find one! What an awesome idea. I love how clever you are and it all just came together! hugs and smiles, and YES, I am too ready for FALL, we too are experiencing melting weather it has been in the 100's still. Only today and hopefully next week it will start cooling off into the 90's and 80's…maybe…hugs and smiles…

  3. Your Fall decor looks really great! I love using real gourds and pumpkins, I have gourds decorating my little house already, but no pumpkins yet. All I have ever seen are the orange ones, I am on the lookout for some like yours, with interesting colors and shapes.
    Hugs, Cindy

  4. LOVE this! I am also ready for fall in the worst way. I love that rice bowl. I have decorated, so far, on the cheap, cheap — free!! I'm getting ready to go outside now and see what I can find in the woods 🙂

  5. Very cute! I'm jealous because we can't have any pumpkins or gourds out as decor in our home. We have two labs and one is a champion counter-surfer and already got three mini pumpkins/gourds that were in a glass vase in the middle of our kitchen table. So, non-edible or outdoor decorations for us!
