***A FALL Welcome to.....my Family Living Room***


Hi Everyone!

Welcome to FALL in our Family Room.
This IS the room we live in most.
And, fall colors blend so well with our decor
that I just love how it warms up this room.

The view below is looking into the family room
from our entry.  I have been cleaning and
rearranging my furniture to provide more
sitting space.  I really am loving how cozy
and warm this area is now.

I moved my display case over by the fireplace and
then decided to fill it with all my transferware,
blue and white themed items...many given to
me about 10 years ago by my mom.
I was soooo surprised by how much I had...
I promise I will do another blog to share more
with you.
I have the most fun with our mantle/fireplace.
Love, lov, luv to play with arranging seasonal
goodies on it.  Don't you think they make a room?




I also included a few closer up pictures of my
Fall decor on or around the mantel.


This longaberger basket is stuffed with
pinecones, many are HUGE ones
I picked up and brought back from
Jacksonville, Fla a long time ago.
I sprayed them all gold and use them
 fall and throughout the holidays. 
Such an easy and fun way to display nature.

Be sure to come back tomorrow as I share more
vignettes in my family room and hopefully
another post of tablescapes that I have done as well!

Love hearing from you too!
Be Blessed!
Lorena

Hi Lorena, You have done a great job decorating for fall. You're right about how nice the colors look with the other colors in the room. Isn't it good that there are others colors besides the traditional orange. I've seen so many pretty rooms this season decorated by talented bloggers. I don't know what your room looked like before but it looks really good as you have it arranged now. Everything looks very comfortable and cozy. The work is done, so sit with a cup of coffee and a good book and enjoy your newly decorated room.-------Shannon

Hi Lorena,
You have such a lovely room. Your mantel is one of the prettiest I've ever seen. Love the architecture it gives to the room.
Everything is so cozy, warm and ready for fall, even the kitty looks like part of the decor!

Hi Lorena...

My friend, your home looks sooo very beautiful all dressed up in autumn! I clicked to enlarge all of your photos so that I could drink in all the wonderful details! I just love how you decorated your fireplace mantel! Ohhh...and your autumn wreath...GORGEOUS!!! Is that a pretty pink plate that I see nestled down into that wreath? What a GRAND idea!!! I will have to remember that. I love dishes and decorate with them too! I also love all of the pretty pumpkins that you elevated on your mantel!

I'm not sure how you had the furniture arranged in your living room before...but the new placement looks great! You have such a beautiful home, my friend...very warm, cozy, and inviting...just as a home should be! I love the toile slip cover that you have on the coffee table or is it an ottoman? In fact, I spotted all the toile that you used in this room...like the pretty liner for the basket by the fireplace! I just adore toile!

I also took a good, long, peek at all of your autumn table vignettes! Sooo pretty! Yes, I do believe that you are ready to see the autumn season in...and gloriously...I might add! Thank you for sharing your lovely autumn home with us!

I also wanted to thank you for coming by and taking a peek at my autumn table! I sooo enjoyed your visit and sweet note! Thank you!

Warmest autumn wishes,
Chari
