I hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend! I spent a recent weekend in the woods visiting a friend – and, one cool evening by a fire, my thoughts turned towards the fall season.
When I got back home and was thinking about fall (and, of course white pumpkins), I went into my closet and pulled out all the velvet pumpkins I have made over the years. Like every other year, I will make a few new ones in neutral shades this year to add to my collection! I started thinking about what new fabrics I will use for the current year…
While I was contemplating the pumpkin box and fabrics, I noticed a little misplaced holiday lantern that didn’t make it into one of the Christmas storage boxes – seeing it immediately inspired me to use it for fall!
Inside the lantern, I added a couple of the smaller pumpkins I have made, a little Spanish moss, some of my DIY bleached mini pine cones and a couple acorns I had painted.
Instantly, my holiday lantern is transformed into fall décor! Maybe, as the days get shorter, I will add a few white fairy lights. So, just like that, fall décor has sneaked up on me…and, you know how that goes…now I am all in! To add fuel to the fire – my favorite garden store starts selling white pumpkins this week!
Thanks for stopping by! I hope I have inspired you to repurpose something from another season for your fall decor!
Remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
