Let's Decorate for an Autumn Party!
I LOVE Fall. I love the fresh start of a new school year and the new school supplies that go with it. I love feeling a crisp in the air and seeing the leaves start to put on their fall colors. I love how it makes me want to bake pumpkin bread and apple pie, and how it makes my husband want to make his homemade cinnamon ice cream.
And I love decorating for fall. I'm not one of those people who decorate for every holiday and season. But, I really have a good time with decorating for fall and Christmas. September 23rd was the official first day of Autumn. So, I've made the house look official, too.
I love to see other people's decorations, too. So, I thought it would be fun to have a virtual Autumn party. Everyone is invited! The only catch is, YOU are in charge of the decorations! Once you have decorated, post pictures on your blog and then post a link to them here. I'll pass around the virtual pumpkin muffins and apple cider, and we'll all sit back and enjoy the fun fall photos!
You can include your Halloween decorations, and any other special things you do for fall, too.

I also love fall! (though I hate that it means winter is around the corner!) I do very little seasonal decorating so I won't be joining the party, sorry! Your house looks great!
ReplyDeleteSuper fun idea! I've done a lot of seasonal decorating, and if I get my house cleaned up for a couple of seconds, I'll post some pictures!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea. I can't start doing any Halloween decorating until October 1st. Boy I can't wait.
ReplyDeleteYour house looks so warm and welcoming! I love your style!
ReplyDeleteP.S. It is that pretty teal color in person!
Fall is my favorite!!! Your house looks loverly.
ReplyDeletePS.

Fall is my favorite season.
ReplyDeleteJust yesterday I was thinking I need more decorations.
What a fun idea. You have a lovely home, I really like that color on the walls.
Wiht love, NSC (trying not to scare ya)
Wow what a great job you did. I always decorate for holidays too but I havent put up my fall things yet.
ReplyDeleteI love your fall decor! Thanks so much for visiting me and your well wishes for my hubby!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of a virtual fall party..
When I get all my decor up, I'll link here! (We're still very warm in this part of CA, but that will change soon)
Wow ~ your home looks beautiful. Fun idea! I LOVE your tablecloth. If I get some pictures taken I will join in. Thanks for the invitation. :0)
ReplyDeleteI love the colors in your home! Unfortunately I never have any time to decorate except for Christmas, so I'll be living vicariously through everyone else. I'll look forward to seeing more pictures as people post them!
ReplyDeleteYou have such a beautiful home and I just your color choices, I especially love your fall themed dining room table! You have most definitely brought a lovely touch of autumn to your home:)
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Susan P.
I'm becoming a bigger and bigger fan of fall as I get older. Your house just looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your visit...
ReplyDeleteYour house looks wonderful! The fall is not here in Los Angeles today.....It's in the low 90's! But I'm not complaining! (lol)
Dear Nettie, thanks for your visit to my blog.
ReplyDeleteWe are in the first month of spring here in Australia, but I am enjoying your beautiful autumnal decorations, and also your explanation of why you like the autumn - very similar to my own.
Btw, the color of your dining room walls is divine! Very autumnal, but I'm sure you didn't repaint just for the season!
I always enjoy seeing your pics. What a beautiful home. I don't decorate for the seasons, more for the holidays so I'll have to post some of my halloween decorations after I decorate on Saturday.
ReplyDeleteHi Nettie:-) Thanks so much for visiting my blog and leaving a comment..I always love "meeting" new people!! I so love Autumn as you can tell from my blog! lol I love your decorations and I think it's a fun idea to link us all up to show our decorations! I will be back tomorrow to link up:-)
ReplyDeleteWOW! SOOOOO beautiful - what a lovely home! :)
ReplyDeleteI love your decorations and home interior. What a lovely feel to the place! Autumn already? Where has this year gone? :) Will try to join in if l can but have to admit that l am a bit under the weather myself just now. Bests
ReplyDeleteso festive -I love living in a great fall state!
ReplyDeleteYour house is so adorable!! And how on top of stuff are you to be getting decorated already! Good job!
ReplyDeleteOh - and I FINALLY completed that meme.
ReplyDeleteOk - loving the gourds and pinecones around your topiary. GREAT idea!
ReplyDelete*sigh* I am so behind - October is almost here and I have yet to do MY decorating!
Your home looks beautiful! I love the quilt on your dining room table!
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures. It is making me feel inspired to get my house decorated for fall too. Hope this lasts for me until tomorrow/daylight! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love fall, too! Unfortunately I don't have fall decorations to put up, but we do know that school has started with work papers and creations hanging up everywhere!
ReplyDeleteYou're house looks very nice :-)
I Love your cute little scarecrow! Is that a cute little ribbon in her hair?
ReplyDeleteMy fall decoration ususally end up being the tree's outside my house! But I'll try! Thanks for the little push!
I love your fall decor. I especially love the quilt on your dining room table. I have always wanted to do that. It was fun to see more of your house too. I have posted my fall photos. I tried to link onto your thing, but I am not sure that it worked.
ReplyDeleteI love fall also. It is my favorite season. Leaves crunching, jacket-weather, WSU football, Kids back in school. It's great.
ReplyDeleteYour house looks beautiful. I need to get on the ball.
You have great taste. I too love autumn...the colors the crisp air, but still not too cold. I love the walks with the pretty leaves in the trees. And funny I just made an apple pie the other day...it makes me want to bake too!
ReplyDeleteI love fall, and I love your decorations! I've got to get my up still, then I'll take some pics.
ReplyDeleteI'm still working on my decorations, everyday I think "I need to have my like up at Nettie's".
ReplyDeleteI don't have a decorating/crafty gene anywhere in my body, so it takes me longer than the average person.
Very nice! And I love your dining room!
ReplyDeleteWould you believe that I saw this post a few days ago and for the past several days I've been bugging my husband to pull down our decorations from the attic?? Believe it baby ... it's true!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE FALL!!!
Fall is probably my favorite time of the year, rivaled only by winter. Oh, and summer. Maybe spring.
Once we get everything out - I'll come back and post a link. Wish me luck, the cleaning bug caught me this week.
I love your fall decorations! It is cute how you arranged the squashes around your plant. I just added my Fall Openhouse. The pics aren't great , but it was fun! :)
