Show Off Your Cottage Monday

Pumpkins certainly have a place when it comes to Fall decorating, but you can achieve a beautiful look spending no money at all by just gathering up a few treasures from around your home. Bits of nature from your own yard complete the look. Here is what I have right now decorating our dinner table... the little pumpkins and green apples you see here are faux, but everything else come from the garden--bits of autumn memoirs forever to be treasured!


And then there was pumpkin bread too! Real yummy pumpkin bread!

Enjoy each moment of your life, pause to fill your heart with thanksgivings and beauty wherever you look, and may you be blessed as you walk this wonderful journey called Life!

  2. It is beautiful as always. Autumn is still in the air and I so love this time of year. I use a mix of real and faux too and think it looks fine. I know the purists amongst us don't like the faux...but..I like to be able to have and enjoy certain things from year to year. Have a blessed and wonderful week, my dear! Hugs-Diana
