Autumn home continued. . .

Here's a few more snapshots of Autumn around our home.

The first thing I display every Fall is this darling pumpkin made by my niece when she was in high school. Makes me smile and feel at home.



I think deep orange tones compliment blue so amazingly, like Autumn leaves against the blue, blue sky.  
Like my comfy throw against the blue couch. Many a nap is taken snuggled under it!




More fun pumpkin treasures. I look for natural toned or deep orange colors instead of Halloween oranges.






Love this cute little box that I use for napkins.




I used to collect tea cups and saucers, not so much anymore. But I've kept some seasonal ones to enjoy on display.




This flower handled set is a favorite.




Old, old Royal Albert Maple Leaf cream and sugar.




My niece and I both like to have seasonal books in a basket. (How do you like my "hardwood" floors, heheh!)




There are a few flowers left in the cutting garden for the table.




I did make the table runner (machine quilted by Anne Jones). 

And I am taking notes on which dahlias were excellent cut flowers and which I'd like to replace.  Deep purple (like the wedding flowers - gorgeous!) and a rich orange bloom.

Maybe next year I'll even grow pumpkins!
