Fall Decor Part 4 - the Dining Room

Happy Fall Sweet Friends,

How Exciting, 

it has finally arrived..........

and I was so pleased that it was a

 much cooler 70 degrees this morning

course, it didn't last past 8:30, lol

 but it was nice.............It's a start

anyway..........

So how are you this first day of Fall?

Bright eyed and busy tailed as my 

Grandmother used to say???  lol

Have to say I am feeling bright eyed

and like a busy tailed squirrel

scampering about, and considering

I only slept for 4 hrs. last night that

is amazing..........course, it is that

cooler Fall weather I am sure!

Well, thought I would show you

my dining room decor today!

Starting with the dining room table

Centerpiece.........was thinking

after I took all these pictures that

I should have set it with the dishes

and all, as it would look much 

prettier, then thought they will 

be seeing some  Fall tablescapes

 soon enough....lol

I went for a lil bit more of a minimalist look,

at first I didn't have the candles and liked that

look too,  but then I love to use candles in the

Fall and Winter, so added these gold mercury

glass candleholders in..........

 Too hot any other time!!

Took this with the lights out cause there was

so much light coming in the window in early

morning.........and wanted you to be able

to see the candles were lit.

I used that shredded crinkled paper bag colored

gift bag grass (I call it) in the top of the urn

to set the pumpkin on...........

With Cut out affect

Love these gold pumpkins

Now for Some Fun modern art -

 look closely, this is the same pic as the one above it....

using a distortion affect called polar coordinates. 

Click on it to make it larger, cause It looks way

better larger.

  I thought it was very neat and  interesting!

 Thought I would add an overall shot so

you can see where some of the pics that

are coming up go.

Also ....See the Rooster on top of our

 cabinet...Our lil darling was afraid of

him at first, so I had to take him down so

 she could see him and feel him, and we

named him "Big Red"..........now she is

 fascinated with him and wants me to get

 him down a few times a day so she can

 see him!  lol

She is such a riot...........

 Loved this in colored pencil affect.

This is what I have on top of the other  cabinet.

Do you see anyone you know taking a picture??? lol

This and the pictures below

were all besides the cabinet

where Big Red is.

These are old looking I know,  but they

are for sentimental reasons.  The pic

reminds me of when we lived in Germany

 42 yrs. ago as Newly weds, and the lil

 hummel music box was a gift from my 

hubby way back then, that plays our song

 "Raindrops keep falling on my head",

a song from "Butch Cassidy and the

Sundance Kid".....it was the movie we

saw on our first date, and a blind date

at that..............

I hid the babies yogurt drops in there,

cause I used to put them in the Easter

eggs,  so since I put those up,  I had

to find a new hiding place,  she likes

that it plays music.

These signs were a gift from Scott and

Megan on Mother's Day.  Those lil orange

things on top are lil tiny plastic pumpkins.

They are really rounded don't know why

they looks so flat in the picture.  lol

I just add some touches here and there

in my china cabinet, which you will see

a lil closer up in the pic below.

Made this collage today on pic monkey all by myself.

It was actually very easy..........and loved how it

came out.....so was proud of myself......

but in a good way!!  lol

Glad You came to visit,  and hope

You enjoyed it, and will come

 again soon..........
