Fall Decor

IT'S FALL TIME IN THE MELLE HOUSE!

I finally got around to doing a little "fall" decorating around the house.
Honestly, I don't usually decorate that much for fall, but I've been inspired to this year by all my bloggy friends & seeing all the wonderful decorating jobs you have all done!!
So, here goes.....
This little table is in my living room.



I had some extra space on my counter top so I created a little vignette.
They are all things I already had around the house.
The picture I just printed off the internet.

This cute sign I got at Marshall's for like 6 bucks, it's on my back door.


This is our front door.
Got the wreath from Walmart for 10 bucks.


This shelf is in my Kitchen.


I found this printable off one of the blogs I follow, of course I can't remember which one.....
But, I loved it & just had to print it out!


This is on our Dining room table.
Hubby's mom gave it to me last year.


Since we don't have a fireplace mantel in this house I decided to make the shelves our "mantel".

The left shelf.....
The glitter pumpkin is from The Dollar Tree, which I placed on a candle holder I already had.
The printable is another one I got from one of the blogs I follow, again I forgot which one but Thank-you to who ever's it was.
The jar is from Michael's & I just added the ribbon & little glass acorns, total cost for that project was about 5 bucks.
The middle shelf....
The glass jar I already had & just added the fake little pumpkins & ghords from The Dollar Tree to it.
The sign I got from Family Dollar a while ago.



The right shelf....
The candy jar was my Mamie's & just added the candy corn.
The picture is one I took last year.


This is the corner cabinet in my living room.


My mother had gotten this basket for me last year at one of our local craft fairs.


And this cute little sign & pumpkins are sitting on top of my microwave.



Now I'm dying to decorate my front porch but haven't really had the funds lately to do so.

I won't be around all weekend because I'm leaving for Maine w/my sister & cousins for our annual girls weekend of shopping.
This will be our 6th year going & I can't wait!
The places we go to shop are wonderful!
Lots of unique little shops, not like the same ole places around here in the Berkshires.
I'll definitely be looking for some great new items for the house & it's also for me to get a head start on Christmas shopping for all the kiddos.

Anyway, hope you all have a great holiday weekend!
I'll be back either Mon. night or Tues. to post all about our adventures in the beautiful state of Maine!!
