A {little bit of} Autumn Decor in the Dining Room

Saturday, September 15, 2012

I am slowly letting go of summer and embracing autumn.   I created a vignette in our dining room influenced by another autumn vignette from Victoria Magazine.

Photobucket

from victoriamagazine.com

Mine is not an exact copy, but I did use similar colors, apples, and an orchid. I had everything around the house but the apples and rosebud.  I buy apples about once a week.  Next to strawberries, they are our favorite fruit!

I am sure all of you have decorated much more for autumn than I.  Sorry I have not visited many of you this week, but life has gotten in the way of blogging!

  5. Oooh, I do love those pumpkins! I think I have been following you for almost a year now, as I think I might remember them! (Makes sense as you were a Swapoween meet!) Happy Autumn!

  7. Very pretty! Apples just speak fall to me! I am easing my way into fall, too...or maybe I am just too lazy to go get my boxes up!!

  9. This looks so pretty! I love that it's a copy, but not a copy. You put your own spin on it & it looks great.

  10. I love the green glass stems on your pumpkins. I'm like you and haven't done much fall decorating. I'm still not quite ready to look at fall decorations for some reason. I guess I just don't want to let go of summer.

    Ricki Jill I love your "little bit of fall"....your dinning room is so peaceful and relaxing....enjoyed the visit with you,and that's ok if "life" gets in the way of blogging...we all should put that ahead of blogging more often.

    Love....and have a great week!

  13. I just returned from the Blue Ridge Mountains. Just what I needed to get in the fall mood. Pumpkins and mums everywhere and my favorite apple orchard was open and selling cider and the best donuts!

    Your vignette is gorgeous!

  17. Ricki Jill,

    Your dining room is so pretty. Your chandelier is gorgeous! The glass pumpkins are extra special. I adore your copy but not a copy. Your tea cups are so much prettier than the picture.

  18. I love your beautiful dining room. The chandelier and shades are so pretty.
    Your autumn look there is beautiful. I don't decorate too much for fall, either. I have very few decorations but I generally LOVE a bowlful of little Boo pumpkins. :)
