The Scoop #294

Hi everyone and welcome back to The Scoop! It's official...my favorite season is finally here...so I'm sharing some ways to add touches of fall that are both easy and inexpensive. My DIY RUSTIC TERRACOTTA CLOCHE BASE is a fun way to display your pumpkins and it's easier to make than you might think! Now, I want to see what you are sharing so let's get started!

White Pumpkins and Oak Leaves Fall Mantel

Now that it's officially fall, I am excited to share this year's mantel starring white pumpkins, a garland of oak leaves and a simple cotton boll wreath. I am finding myself drawn to lots of texture and natural elements and I have to say that this mantel really fills the bill in that department!

The Scoop #293

Hi everyone and welcome back to The Scoop! Even though fall is almost officially here, we are still sweltering here in Georgia. So I have created a tablescape to ease the transition for those of you who are not quite pumpkin-ready and those of you who are like me and could do fall all year 'round...my TRANSITIONAL FALL TABLESCAPE. It has the best of both seasons with vibrant colors, lots of texture and just a few non-traditional pumpkins! ;-) Now I can't wait to see what you have brought to the party this week, so let's get started!

Transitional Fall Tablescape

Fall is almost officially here but, to be honest, sweltering temperatures are still very much the norm here in Georgia. It's that in-between time when many of you are not quite ready to go full-blown pumpkins and are still enjoying the last days of summer. So I have a tablescape that manages to walk that line between both seasons with a pretty nod to both...my transitional fall tablescape!

Hi everyone! I am so glad that you are joining us, either to inspire or to be inspired! Here, I am anxiously watching the coverage of Hurricane Irma and heartsick to see so much destruction so soon on the heels of Harvey. This time she has Georgia in her sights and we are bracing for her arrival in the Southeast after our first-ever tropical storm warning in Atlanta. My heart and my prayers go out to everyone in her path!
