Last Fall dish change

Thanksgiving is past and Christmas is upon us but I wanted to quickly share my last dish change (cause I know you're dying to see them, haha).  This fall I've ended up doing 3 changes!  It seems like a lot, but I just can't resist!  I love this last color combination!

I would have shared last week while on vacation but, ya know, vacation just needed all my attention.  I'll share about our fun later.

I really wanted to display these colors last year but couldn't figure out a good combination.  With my new copper pieces and a little black, I'm really happy with how it turned out this time.

I found these great candlesticks in thrift stores for about $8-12 each!!

The sink window is a great place for my glass jars.

and a special handmade turkey.

I found this great Norman Rockwell print in a little antique store that has all the colors I've used and portrays the sweet power of humble gratitude.  Truly peace comes from recognizing that all we have comes from a generous and loving God.

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and are looking forward to the celebration of our greatest gift, the gift of a Savior.  Happy days ahead!!

Fall decorating

Following up on yesterday's post about my dish display, I'm sharing a few pictures of a couple other rooms that I decorated for fall.  You'll notice that Halloween doesn't make a show in the front rooms and the colors are a little more muted.  

I went online to watch a couple instructional videos for photography which made taking these pictures a whole lot more fun.  I'm really pleased with my new knowledge!

The mantle pieces are all new additions this year from Hobby Lobby.

I love light coming through colored glass

A couple of my glass pumpkins are from Pier 1 

while the other two are from Home Goods (much cheaper)

Back in the kitchen room, opposite from my dishes is our only other reminder of Halloween

Esther's cute plate she made in Elementary school.

And here, for the next two days, we'll be gathered as a family to watch and listen to the teachings of our church leaders and prophet at General Conference.  This instruction will go

so much further in my life than the YouTube photography videos.  

So looking forward to this new inspired knowledge!

Happy weekend!!
