| I added a touch of French inspired fall to the entry. |
 |
| I had found this pretty fabric in my stash and thought it would be perfect for a French fall project. I only had a yard, so I couldn't do a whole lot, but there was enough to make a pumpkin and fill an empty frame. . |
 |
| I started my fall vignette with this silk wreath...... |
 |
| I had bought this frame at a yard sale a few weeks ago for $1. I didn't get a before pic of the fabric that was in it then, but trust me....it was not pretty! |
 |
| I didn't know if a printed fabric would make a very pretty pumpkin.....I normally use a solid fabric. I was pleased with the look and loved the way it carried the French theme from the frame down to the table. |
 |
| For the stem on my French pumpkin, I used a drawer pull that I bought at HL. The pull was in a clearance bin marked down from 7.99 to 2.72. |
 |
| I wanted to show you this gorgeous lace tablecloth that I got the bid on at the auction Saturday....$12.50. I can't leave it all spread out in the floor for us to step on....but I wanted to put it there for you to see how big and pretty the tablecloth is...lol! |
 |
| Here is a close up of the small rug that you see at the door in the above photo.....a yard sale purchase....$15. |
 |
| I kept looking at this lonely pumpkin..... |
 |
| and decided to add a couple of velvet pumpkins to the vignette. The old saying "less is more" does not apply to my style of decorating....for sure! |
 |
| This spray that I hung over the mirror matches the wreath that I have on the entry table.... |
 |
| I also tucked a couple of the matching rose sprays to the top of the entry table. |
 |
| The roses on the wreath and sprays are so pretty....they have a vintage look.....they are silk, but the deeper burgandy roses look like velvet. |
Penny, I love that little bit of fabric.xoxo,Susie

Love the floral fabric, but the velvet is my all time favorite!
ReplyDeleteIt's so nice to see colors other than orange, yellow & brown for fall. I try to decorate with whites, creams & various shades of pink, so I am getting lots of wonderful ideas from your posts! Love the floral and velvet pumpkins!
ReplyDeleteI love the beautiful colors you have on the velvet pumpkins and the beautiful rose fabric also on the pumpkins that was a wonderful ideal you have. pink and white is so beautiful and love all your ideals!
ReplyDeletePenny,
ReplyDeleteLoved this!! Love the deep rich burgundy colors!! The chair with the tablecloth draped and puddled on the floor was to die for but Joe would have tangled himself up in that something fierce and most likely fell and broke a leg!! LOL! LOVE the cello!!!!!! Beautiful!! Once I am done with being a vendor in this craft fair on Sat., I will start my Fall decorating.....
It has gotten cooler here but it still is not Fall yet..... LOL!
Hugs,
Deb
You amaze me again! Your pumpkins are so charming and the lace tablecloth is fantastic

Hi Penny. So pretty as usual and I know exactly what you mean about the less is more saying. I think that must be my motto also. Your velvet pumpkins are just so pretty. Penny, I feel so badly. I used your idea to make a cottonboll wreath and posted about it today. I tried to give you credit for the idea but I could not link up, no matter what I did. I tried everywhich way but it didn't work so I just typed your name and blog name there. I don't like to do that unless I give full credit but I just couldn't make it work..Happy Tuesday..Judy
ReplyDeleteAs always everything is beautiful. I know exactly what you mean when you say "if they like it, I give it to them." I do the same thing. :) What are daughters for but to spoil? :)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty - sweet and feminine! So nice of you to share your treasures with your daughter, too. xo Karen
ReplyDeleteYour Fall entry is just perfect. I love the floral and velvet pumpkin's. Of course you would give your daughter the great frame. That is what we Moms do...Have a great week. Blessings!
ReplyDeletePenny, I can see why your daughter loved the frame. It really did turn out gorgeous! If I made a pink pumpkin my friends would think I was crazy. You make it work. Very pretty! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
