Sept 2, 2010 ... Otherwise known as 90210 (hehe)
means..... Time for FALL! :) At least in our household. I couldn't hold out any longer.
I spent today pulling out the black and orange rubbermaids from the garage.
Don't tell me I'm the only one who uses color coordinated storage totes!
Our new Fall Mantel:
Over the Summer, it looked more like this:
It was actually pretty simple with only a hint of Summer.
I added some ceramic pumpkins..
Some scrap decorator fabric in Fall-ish colors..
Some sticks for a little organic element..
And a cheery Happy Fall Sign.
And with that, I'm callin' it done.. at least for another month. :)
When October hits I'll be adding in a little spooky to the mix.
Have you guys started decorating for Fall yet??

Love this. I wish I had a mantel to decorate!
ReplyDeleteI can't even think about fall yet! Tomorrow's temps 100+ not including the heat index.... I am however dreaming of fall cooler day temps and crisp nights! BRING ON FALL (maybe it'll be here by Oct)!!!
ReplyDeleteMorgan.. that was one of my requirements when we were houseshopping this time around. Our old house didn't have one, and it's not like we NEED a fireplace in Texas.. but I wanted one to decorate. LOL.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love your fall mantel though!
ReplyDeleteCourtney - your mantel is lovely. I have restrained myself up until your post! I will now be digging out my colour coordinated containers this coming long weekend. Thanks for the inspiration!
