Seashells

Mira Shell Candle Holders

Seashell decor is definitely having a moment. Seashell busts, chandeliers, mirrors and more are everywhere, and definitely not just in beach houses. Unfortunately, some pieces are ordinary, some are kitschy, others are very expensive. I have found some lovely pieces that are a step above. I posted on these before, but they are now on clearance, and the deals are unbelievable. Seashell decor looks especially wonderful with blue and white and with chinoiserie.

A Chinoiserie Autumn

Dillard's Southern Living Collection

September arrives this coming Tuesday and I for one am very excited. I love decorating for fall, Halloween, and Thanksgiving. My plans are already underway.

I am not the biggest fan of orange for fall decor, and I'll bet many of you agree. I can't stand traditional orange pumpkins, for example. But today with all the fabulous heirloom pumpkins, there are pumpkins in white, celadon, and blue - very Chinoiserie Chic!
