This week, I took a little break from apartment renovation part 1249 to start to decorate for fall. I only decorate the dining room for fall. My DIY yarn pumpkins look so pretty on these candle pedestals. I love mixing a little aqua/teal with traditional autumn colors of golds, oranges, reds, browns…

I’m still working on a fall centerpiece, but these accents I already had on hand {vintage tin, dried flowers, candles, oval wooden tray} do the trick for now…

I’m not a fan of our current dining room light fixture, so you’ll often find me disguising it with wreaths, garland and candles. So festive and so pretty…

This week, I’ll be working on some fall decorating {finally!}. In the meantime, here is our fall decorated dining room last year…

DIY Fall Festival linky party

DIY FALL FESTIVAL

It’s that time of year {already?!}. Wait! Where did summer go so fast? I can’t believe it, but it’s time for the 3rd annual weekly FALL linky party open Wednesdays through Fridays starting today and ending…well, somewhere around Thanksgiving.

I thought I’d kick off this year by sharing a few of my favorite of my own past fall projects…and maybe a review because I’m day and night up to my eyeballs in an apartment renovation so about the only fall project I’ve completed is falling into bed each night. But, previous years, here is what I did and this year. I have some fun ideas that I can’t wait to get to. Might even take a few hours off from apartment decorating to get to an autumn inspired DIY. Ahem…in the meantime, I present to you, Fall….

and letters…

Baby girl’s first day of college is today. I swear she just started kindergarten not too long ago. So while the summer flew by for me, so did the past YEARS! She celebrates with an end of fall birthday and last year, I put together a small

fall themed dinner party…

I’m not sure where summer went but I’m still holding on for a few more weeks of summer myself even though I notice chilly mornings and shorter days. I just wasn’t in mom’s pool nearly enough {apartment renovation take #1078}. Are you getting ready? Are you ready?! My favorite things about fall? Spicy fall scents like cinnamon and pumpkin. Wearing sweaters and boots. Warm and cozy throws. I just need another few weeks to work up to it. 😉
