After seeing so many beautiful
Fall vignettes and projects over blogland, I was very anxious myself to start decorating for my favorite season! I still have a few more projects to complete, which means more spray~painting to do! :)
Remember the urn in this vignette? I found it at the Goodwill and intended on spray~painting it black or dark brown, but didn't think it would have enough contrast against the mahogany table.
My son asked me Saturday, "Mom, why do you spray paint white things black, and black things white?" LOL!
My reply, "...because I can!" What else could I say?
I've said it before and I'll say it again, You can have something forever and not use it, but the minute you throw it away, that is when you will need it! :)
My FIL, Bill loved to decorate his home for Christmas! ...Well, let me rephrase that, he loved to sit in his recliner, and "supervise" the Christmas decorating! LOL! But, I enjoyed it because it meant so much to him. The Christmas before he died, we got these to use in the decorations, but they didn't work out, and I forgot to return them. I've never found another use for them.
I was riding down the road, thinking how these candlesticks would fit my Fall vignette perfectly, and a dread washed over me. I just knew I had sold them in a summer yard sale! (...since I never used them!) But I found them! Hallelujah! ...Here they are below.
Oh no, I accidently took my own picture....
And another little vignette.....
My Tassle Creation...
I still need to spruce the one below up a little, but it was an easy one! I bought the arrangement, complete with the lantern, at the end of the season last year at Sam's Club! I watched it for weeks, until it came down to "my price!"
Flea Market Find...
I wasn't able to make the yard sales Saturday, just the Flea Market. I was getting ready for a cook-out and it was 10:30 by the time I went to the FM. But I did find these two pictures. The lady had $10 on the SET. As I was "admiring" them, she made me an offer for $8! I didn't even ask! LOL! They are really large and I will not have to remat or reframe them! ...an added bonus! :) I'm putting them away, for the farmhouse.
Tommorrow, I will do my 100th post!!!
And in celebration, I will be hosting a Give~Away!
So, come back tomorrow for more details and pictures,
and to sign up! ...Please, spread the word! ~Rhonda :)

Hi Rhonda, lovely! Deb
Everything looks so nice! Amazing what a difference spray paint can make. Funny, I don't think I've spray painted anything myself yet! Congrats on the 100th post! I'll be back tomorrow! Cindy
Your home looks beautiful and your family is gorgeous! I cannot wait to decorate my new home. I may still get to decorate for fall, but that will take a miracle. i'm for that though.
Everything looks so beautiful. I love those candle sticks. I am glad you found them. Don't you hate that feeling- when you think something is gone. What a relief! Great picture you found at the flea market and great price!
Wow! You did a great job, your home looks beautiful.
Blessings, Virginia
Beautiful fall decor! Mine is all piled on the kitchen counter waiting to be put together. Looking forward to the giveaway. Jackie

Youe house is looking so nice and Fall~ie?...I haven't even started...it's kinda hard to do things like that with a 2 year old...I think I will be more motivated when she stops bothering things on the end tables and counters...right now...things are a little bare :)
Wow, it really looks like Fall has arrived at your house! SO inspiring! Thanks for sharing your wonderful photos & ideas and joining in on Fall Inspiration Week!
Happy Nesting!

Fall is absolutely the best time for decorations...because they can go up the firt of Sept and stay until the first of December...that is three whole months...by that time I am ready for a change anyway.
Your vignettes look great...makes me want to get out in the shed and get out my fall stuff...but right now the temperature is in the 90's and somehow that does not feel fallish enough.

Hi Rhonda :)

Hi Rhonda! Your fall displays are beautiful! I love that urn! And you made that tassel yourself? It's fabulous! Hope you had a great holiday weekend!

Your fall decorations are beautiful!!! I'll bet your house is gorgeous with all the goodies that you have put out. I have just a few fall decorations, but lots of Halloween....I think it's the kid in me LOL!
Congratulations on your 100th post. I started my blog in February of 2006 and it has taken me this long to get to 300!!! I took lots of time off last year.
I'll be sure to stop by tomorrow to see what your give away will be!
take care,
Dawn
Great fall displays. I think the urn is really pretty white...it shows off the details that would have been lost in black. You do a really classy job with the vignettes! I guess I better get my butt in gear and at least do some fall decorating! Have a great evening.
Rhonda, seeing all your Fall decor is making me think it's time to get mine out!!!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE your table lamp in the top photos. LOVE IT, LOVE IT. Did you purchase it recently, and if so, may I be so bold to ask where you purchased it from?
Blessings,
Sher
Hi Rhonda,

Evening, Rhonda! Wow, you've been a busy gal! I love your urn the way it is and it really does show off your pumpkin! I like all the fallness and that little tassel is precious! I'm thinking about making one. I think I can do it!
Be a sweetie,

Your fall decor is so pretty. Nice job on the tassel!
Hi Rhonda,
Now I'm really longing for Fall (and the much cooler weather!). Love the tassel, it's darling.
~Tracie
It all looks so pretty! Not that I'm surprised. :o) I'm trying very, very hard to not decorate for fall until... FALL (ha ha) but so many of you are making me weak. Happy 99th post today! lol
Good morning Rhonda :)
Your fall decor looks beautiful! I'm like your FIL in that I usually just decorate big for Christmas, but all these posts are making me want to run out and buy pumpkins ;)
I love the white urn!
