Need Some Fall Decorating Ideas?

The big glass jar (above) is full of black licorice. Yum!
Above: I could not resist this antique picture of a little girl wearing a sweet dress and holding a basket of flowers. I think she will be lovely in my bedroom.
A wonderful old metal box with the best orange patina! The caption is Marsha's favorite.
Do these goolish lanterns look familiar? They should because the same ones are on this months issue of Home Companion magazine! These are for sale at the shop.
Doogs says Hi!!

These acorns are wearing little fuzzy caps!

Above is the table she made. I love the old wood that she used. This would make a great sofa table.
A wire turkey full of squash.

One of my favorite things to do is to visit my friends who have wonderful shops here in town. Marsha called me the other day to tell me that she had just finished decorating her store front window in Fall style. I thought, oh boy, more pictures to share! Well, I just tootled over there, camera in hand, and was thrilled to find her store looking festively decorated ~~ all Marsha style. Check out the table in the front window. She used old ballisters and some old wood planking to make the table. It turned out wonderful!!! Love it!

Marsha loves to mix natural elements (like Melissa) with wire, urns and bowls. One of my favorite ideas is to get an old urn and put clipping from a Manzanita bush inside and hang Halloween decorations from. Marsha's daughter, Meggie, lives in the mountains and picked her mother some wonderful acorns for her shop. Have any of you ever seen acorns with fuzzy caps? I just thought they looked so adorable.

Another great idea that Miss Marsha had was to fill an old aquariam (this one is for sale and is fabulous with an old green patina) with white rocks and black and white Halloween/Fall items. It is just so cute and I especially loved the old black clock inside (not for sale...sad face).

I hope that these great photos will spark some ideas or maybe tempt you to hop in your car and take a little road trip to visit Marsha. Her address is here.

Mr. Doogs says hello, too!!!! This is a photo of him waiting for me to get off of the computer and take him outside for a wee-wee.

Have a wonderful weekend! To my Florida friends, I hope the weather cools down for you!
