Under the Autumn Moon

** Edited**

I'm linking up with Liz over at Savvy Seasons for an Autumn linky party....

SavvySeasons.com Autumn Arrives Party

Go check out her beautifully decorated house, along with many others,
for some great Autumn inspiration!!!!

Hey there, my friends!!

I honestly don't know what "under the autumn moon" means,
but I do like the way it sounds (I'll google it).............


Apparently, I was really excited about Fall last year..................


and we celebrated with {pumpkin} cupcakes!!!!


and I decorated every flat surface - horizontal & vertical - in the public areas of our home..........


the fireplace mantel............






the kitchen bar............


the guest bathroom candelier...........


the bathroom vanity..........


even the back of the toilet!!!



Of course, the entryway.............





 - and the front door!!!


It didn't end there, my friends!!

I hosted a girls' night soiree for a few of my favorite peeps,
so the decorating actually began in the front yard..........





and continued onto the back patio........






OH, but this year - NOT SO MUCH!!

This is it..................
 

 pansies and mums in the original, black, plastic pots from Lowe's -
I did place them inside cute containers....
(the picnic basket below is actually one of my treasures from my recent road trip)

When I saw it, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it............
(and it was only $12)


and a couple of pumpkins purchased at Wal-Mart............


LOVE the colors of the picnic basket!!



rickety, old Adirondack chairs my mom was going to throw away
 (what???!!!! I rescued those babies!!)


and a couple of other treasures found recently.........
a wooden barrel and a metal bucket - perfect!!

No fall decorating has taken place inside the farmhouse this year and
No pumpkin cupcakes have been served!!

But I did cook chili for dinner last night, so I think it really is Fall here in my world!!




Happy Fall, my wonderful friends!!!
