Cattails & Copper in the Farmhouse Fall Bath

Last week I began the process of downsizing the fall & Halloween decor I have collected over the years and just keeping the pieces that I really love. 
 I was so excited when I found a teacher that was able to use several totes of fall decor that I no longer needed and was going to use them to decorate the their classroom for fall and Halloween.

These beautiful cattails had made their way to the bottom of a tote and I forgot I had them.     I've had them for years and don't even remember where they came from but it was like finding an old friend......and I couldn't wait to use them in my fall decorating this year.

I have a method to my madness.....lol,,,, and at the beginning of the season or holiday I take a walk thru the house and kind of make a flexible plan in my head of how I might decorate each room.    I hadn't come up with an theme for the hall bath yet and when I came across the cattails my plan for the hall bath fell into place.

I put copper pumpkins with the cattails and loved how they looked together.

You guys know me....of course I had to add some pink to the mix!

I like to use lots of textures in my vignettes.     I have fuzzy cattails,    velvet pumpkins,  woven baskets......

More texture is added with the use of checked hand towels,    metal pumpkins and silk roses.

I'm not really locked into a specific decorating style.....I love all of them 

You may see farmhouse,  shabby chic,   maybe a little cottage style all used side by side in a vignette I've created.

I decorate with pieces that I love and somehow it all comes together to create a look that I like.

I finished this side of the hall bath yesterday........

and I hope to finish the other side of the hall bath soon!


I always enjoy your visits so much,    please come back again soon!
