Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!
In Joe's travels on Friday, I asked him to check if the Amish Farmer that comes to the Convenience Store down the road from us every Friday had any gourds.....
$1.00 each!!!!
The Farmer said that some had broken stems which is why they were only $1.00......
As soon as I saw them, I knew what I was going to do with them......
Topiary!!!!!
They fit perfectly together........
It gave this side of the flower bed in front of our house just the little added bit of Fall it needed.......
They are also very heavy!!!!
Our son Joey treats us to Dinner every Friday evening and since Joe wanted to make a pizza for himself, it was the perfect opportunity for Joey and I to have Chinese!!
I had the smaller portion......
This is the pizza that Joe made for himself....
Bev knew I have a red Kitchen and she knew that these would be perfect for it.......
I just love them all but will you look at this darling piece......
So darn cute!!!
Didn't think I did too badly.......
Here it is with the garland that I knew I had added to it.....
In my last post, I shared my method of packing away my "normal" decor for the Holidays.....
I showed you that I pack them up in small boxes......
I marked on the boxes where the things inside are displayed......
Makes it so much easier for me when decorating for each Holiday and Season.....
You will see that I used a lot of Dollar Tree ceramic pumpkins that I bought a few years ago to decorate..........
To the left when you walk in, is the Hutch.......
There are 2 shelves on each side of the Hutch......
I changed things around a bit on these shelves, moving the gourd candleholders here from the Kitchen.....
The top of the Hutch......
I bought the plaques on Clearance 3 years ago in Dollar General and I placed Fall dishes behind them......
You may remember that I made these pumpkins out of thread stools.....
I decided to display them on the top of the Hutch.......
I did something a little different this year with the Harvest Village that I set up on the top of the TV Entertainment Center so I moved this Fall tree here to the Hutch......
I just added a few pumpkins, ornaments and gourd tea lights to the inside of the Hutch to give it a Fall look......
The shelf on the other side of the Hutch.....
On the stairs.......
I decorated the lanterns with Fall bows that I made and a few pumpkins inside.....
An Atumum Angel sits on the step between the lanterns.....
The other side of the stairs.....
You may remember that I bought this pumpkin at Dollar Tree......
I hung it behind this wreath that I made......
I bought this sign in Dollar General a few years ago at 90% off........
On the steps........
I did the arrangement in the tin pocket......
Toilet paper pumpkins that I made a long time ago.......
I love to decorate this chair for the various Holidays and Seasons.....
I used some of the pumpkins that I embellished several years ago.....
Underneath the chair.....
Again, I made this not long ago out of Pringles cans.....
There it is next to the lantern that has an orange glass pumpkin inside of it.....
Next to the chair is my LED branch Tree....
The Tree is sitting in a galvanized tray filled with pumpkins that I embellished.....
Next to the Tree is a Curio......
On the side of the Curio, is the Topiary that I made from this.....
And now it looks like this!!!
Over by the divider between the Living Room and Dining Room is my Nostalgic Stereo system and table that we bought in an antique co op.......
The chubby holes on the stand......
A floral arrangement that I did in this flea market find......
An Autumn Tea for one set and an orange tea cup and saucer set that is heart shaped inside.....
The bottom shelves.....
Over on the other side of the TV Entertainment Center.......
A smaller round table.......
Stay safe, healthy and most of all, HAPPY!!

The colors of autumn... you have captured them.all!
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely ready for fall and the colors are fabulous. Love those stacked pumpkins!
ReplyDeleteWow Debbie!!! I'm always amazed at your beautiful decor but fall is my favorite. What a warm and cozy vibe you've created everywhere! Seeing your harvest village makes me miss mine. I let it go a few years ago. It was just too much so close to doing the Christmas village. But yours is beautiful so I feel like I can just pop over to your house to see it! Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteI love your topiary pumpkins this year! The colors of the gourds are fantastic - and only $1 each! What a bargain.
ReplyDeleteSo easy to FALL in love with your decor❤️
ReplyDeleteI love the way to throw your arms around each season and hug the dickens out of it❤️❤️❤️❤️
I Love it

Blessings to you

Wow...a dollar?? I want to find some broken stems!! Beautiful topiary. You are totally fall-ified! I need to catch up. Quick!
ReplyDeleteYour fall decor is outstanding!
ReplyDeleteI love all the pops of orange, brown, yellow and red in your home Debbie! It looks so pretty and super festive too. I'm dying over the $1 pumpkins. They're such a fantastic color and are perfect stacked as a topiary too. I swear that same topiary in our area would have been at least $65 or moroe. Such a great deal and perfect way to celebrate the season! Hugs, CoCo
ReplyDeleteLove the finds Debbie! I can't believe it's already late September! Happy Day! Laura in Colorado
