The Pumpkin Patch

CCC

I went back to Sprouts and found more pink and blue pumpkins. I also looked at acorn squash and found the blackest ones to mix in. I will be adding two huge black lighted witches hats the week of Halloween and wanted a bit of black. 

So I am up to 16 pumpkins/squash and Halloween is still a month away. Have you noticed how decorating with pumpkins has become a trend? There is even a name for it.

Holiday Tartan & More

Petite Plume

I am a huge fan of Petite Plume's wonderful sleepwear. Their holiday collection is out and it is filled with tartans, antique inspired ticking stripes, and classically whimsical prints.

One could shop for everyone on your holiday list from this wonderful collection with great choices for babies, children, women, men, and the home.

Wicker Ginger Jars

Wicker Ginger Jar

 

I have a pair of wicker ginger jars I got a couple of years ago at Dillard's that I love. They combine two of my favorite things, wicker and chinoiserie. In summer, they have a beachy coastal vibe. In autumn, the color is perfect with fall colors. And for the Christmas holidays, they are wonderful with a green or red velvet bow around their necks.

Autumn Ginger Jars

18" Floral Ginger Jar in Brown & White

 

Brown and white ginger jars are perfect for fall. You can use them as ginger jars or as vases filled with mums, dried hydrangeas, or branches with autumn leaves. A very elegant take on autumn chinoiserie.
