I am finally back after a really, really long break. Nothing bad happened, and no excuses. I have been seeing all the fall decor around Blogland and decided to join in on the fun. For any new people to this blog, most of my decor is from thrift stores, flea markets and garage sales, with some hand me downs and antique store finds. Lots of pic's so sit back and enjoy.
Starting in the family room-
Everything, including the oak buffet is from the flea market and thrift store.I did paint the sign above on a garage sale headboard piece of wood.
Orange pitchers and vintage rose plates, and sugar and creamer are from the thrift. Orange sherberts are from my Mom. Brown edge plates are my wedding china.
Some cozy blankets for cool nights (not that that will happen anytime soon here in TX.)
My olden cabbage slicer is back on the wall.
Into the breakfast area. I love, love, love decorating this little hutch with mostly thrifted stuff.
I will fill you in on the re-do of the family room soon. And for you old followers-I know you're asking, "Where's the red?" Don't worry-it' ll be back soon. I'll share the dining room and my new/old bar cart decked out for autumn next time. All I can say is-it's good to be back!

Glad to see your back. The decor looks great.

It was a long time. I've been keeping up with you- love your mantel Deb.
DeleteWelcome back, Leslie! Fall decor is lookin' good!
ReplyDeleteDonna
Thanks a bunch! Talk to you soon!
DeleteI'm so happy to see this post! Your home looks so warm and inviting with your thrifted autumn accents. I love your hutch with pops of orange! And of course I noticed those adorable salt and pepper shakers. Sweet!
ReplyDeleteHow do you like your white slipcovered sofa? I just love the look, but I don't know if it would hold up in our house (visits from grandchildren). Anyway it looks so pretty with your warm colored pillows and throws. Happy fall!
Thanks Vickie.
ReplyDeleteThis is the second white slip covered sofa that we've had. I love being able to throw it in the wash, especially if the dog gets muddy footprints on it. I never worry about stains. Good luck figuring that out. Happy Fall to you.
Leslie! I've missed you! Welcome back! Your home is always so cozy. You have the best little accents. Bring on fall and all the wonderful things associated with autumn!
ReplyDeleteI've missed you too. I have been keeping up with your blog, just quietly. I have loved all the A-frame posts. So much fun!
ReplyDeleteI came over to take a peek and I love that you, too, love to look for deals and bargains. I'm flying to TX in 2 weeks to visit family.
ReplyDeleteBargain hunters unite! Have fun in Texas-hope the heat calms down by then.
DeleteWelcome back! A nice long break is a good thing sometimes! I enjoyed seeing your fall decor!
ReplyDeleteThanks Pam. I did need a long break, because I feel excited about blogging again.
DeleteEverything looks warm and cozy and I sure do love your quilt ladder!
ReplyDeleteBig Texas Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
Thanks, Susan. I bought that ladder at a garage sale years ago.
ReplyDeleteHi Leslie! So happy to see you back, I've missed you and Bo. (I'm moving towards the end of my blogging, run out of ooomph and words.) Everything looks darling as ever, I adore your hutch and all your charming finds. Holiday time is so fun in blog land, looking forward to following along with you. Happy weekend! xo
ReplyDeleteThank you Sally. I was excited to get back to Blogland before the holidays-more to post about. I don't think you'll ever run out of oomph!
