I love Fall!
It's my favorite season, but
I don't love orange
Do you remember the 50's
when Oldsmobile came out with a two-toned car...
It came in either white and orange
or
white and turquoise
We had one....can't remember the color
Could have been white and orange and I've
erased it from my memory!
However,
I've added some orange decor....just a little...
mostly white pumpkins
Take a look.
(before pic of the mantel)




Trying to do something fall-ish with the table....either this

or this
oops...the rooster in the previous pic should have been standing on the books!

maybe this.....

station break - back hall entry
(yikes! get that green thingey off the books! - too crowded)

just for Christmas....
until blogland
I'm liking the colors of fall
even orange
my Auburn family members will be glad!
Oh, Mr. Nest got into the swing of things
with re-purposing
You see the wooden barrier with a seat?
He built it from the scraps of our grown son's tree house,
which he had torn down.
We need to add some vinca.
Way to go, Mr. N!

I love your touches of orange and red. I love the fall colors...but I do use completely different colors for all the other season too.
Your mantel is beautiful!
Hi Linda!!
I think your fall decorations look fabulous. I feel the same way as you...out with the orange now that I don't have 5 year olds!! Plus, I have a very neutral pastel decor and orange is glaringly...orange!
There is the party with Artie from Color Outside The Lines {he is on my sidebar} called Vignette Friday...you should link.
XO,

Fall is my favorite season, too Linda!
I love all your Fall vignettes! Beautiful.
The bench is a great idea.
I love your fall decorations. I am an orange nut, I love it, however I really do love the neutral shades of fall too. Love the rooster in the mix. You have some really pretty things and the new bench seat unde the deck is fabulous. Love it. Everything always looks so pretty at your place. Your and Debbie amaze me with how creative you two are. Hugs, Marty
Hi Linda,
I like how you added just a touch of orange! Looks just right!
Orange doesn't fit in my house either so I just use a wee bit and go more for the golds.
Great bench by hubby too!
Hugs,
Cindy
I love your fall arrangements. You can still join Julia at Hooked on Houses fall party and Rene's at Cottage and Vine.
Oh, wow, your fall decor is really beautiful. Love the way you decorated your mantel! So glad you joined my party and shared this with us. Thanks! :-)
Oh Linda, everything looks great! I am so crazy about Fall and love all of the Fall colors, especially orange!
I still need to get out my Fall/Halloween decorations but I've been on the go so much I haven't had time to decorate. I'm really late this year!
Linda,
Glad to hear that you are liking ORANGE a little more now (I'm sure your AUBURN family is happy too...I'm a huge AUBURN fan). Your home looks beautiful and all ready for FALL!!!
Blessings,
Linda
Linda..this is so funny just last week I did my mantle with orange and even did a post on it and on Monday I tore it all apart and got rid of the ornage could't take looking at it ha ha!! They only orange I like is sherbet ha ha!! Hugs and smiles Gloria
Hi Linda! Here in the UK we don't tend to decorate our homes for each season - but like you since joining and reading all these woderful blogs the idea appeals to me more and more. I went on a shopping spree yesterday - just looking for autumnal colours to add to my home:o)
Your decoration is truly lovely :o)
I love the 'touch' of orange - perfect!
We had the 57 Chevy wagon..turquoise and white. I remember because it was the year I started first grade and it seemed all my clothing was turquoise as well! I guess I should be glad we didn't have the orange car or my wardrobe might have resembled Halloween.
Hi Linda! Oh, that's funny about the cars! We didn't have those but my mother had a red and white buick! Does that count? :)
I love all your pretty fallness! You're doing wonderfully!
Be a sweetie,
shelia ;)
H Linda...How fabulous does that wonderful gourd basket look! I love all of your fall looks...especially the lantern full of white pumpkins! I'm not much of a fan of orange, either...mostly because my mom WAS and I was surrounded by it! lol Have a great weekend...hugs...Debbie
Your fall decor is lovely Linda! I must find some of those white pumpkins. They are adorable.
I'm so glad you could join the "falling up" party.
You can claim the title of the person whose blog made me ready to clean up the cat hair + dust bunny offspring and get out the fall decor! Yours is perfect!
Isn't it funny how taking a picture of an arrangement can make us see it differently? It can look wonderful when we just look at it, but take a picture and we think it needs editing. But I have to say, the rest of the world isn't likely to notice it unless we say something.
Beautiful mantel and fall decorations. Thanks for sharing.
Sandy
I love the mini white pumpkins! Can never get enough of 'em :>)
