Surprisingly, even with my injury, through the help of friends and lots of eye-rolling, glitter fearing help from the husband, I was able to decorate The Snug Bungalow for fall!
This gives me a lot of joy, every day, because, let's face it, I'm not going anywhere. So, even though I'm stuck at the house, at least it's gorgeous and festive!
Shall we take a look?
First, the dining room. My ever faithful, antique cabinet. Fit for displaying all manner of collections. It has a few new additions since last year. One of my delights is to count the number of new things I found over the past year that haven't ever been displayed yet. Though, I don't keep a tally of items culled from the collection in order to make room for these new treasures...
Now for the inside of the cabinet's three doors.
A favorite new item is the vintage honeycomb pumpkin I found at an estate sale this year. I cannot get enough vintage honeycomb decor!
The vintage Lefton pumpkin & cat candleholder that I just got at the RMD sale looks great in the cabinet!
The husband had to help me with this display since you have to climb up on a chair to reach the shelf. He endured many glitterings at its hands. Being glittered is not his favorite thing. Though, in this house, it's a risk you run most days.
Still loving my drinking straw wreath!
A great spot for my "new" vintage black cat to survey the room from. Velvet with jewel eyes and a rhinestone collar.
Bats, cats, and skelies!
My tiny Peanuts Halloween town on the bathroom shelf. The Peanuts characters were gotten at last year's October RMD sale. I just cannot tell you how much I love these tiny Hallmark figures! Merry Miniatures for the win! Plus, if you are a dude, they are eye level with you when you go pee. A nice little tableau for you to ponder whilst you do your business. Ya welcome.
My shadowbox has many new residents this season!
The green monster wreath I made from an idea I found on Pinterest. He lives on our bedroom door.
This is a blurry picture of my burgeoning graveyard.
"There's always room for one more! Hurry baaaacck!"
I do up the mantel very similarly every fall. When you get a classic look that lasts, use it!
So, In Summary:
Thanks to everyone who helped get my house ready
for the beginning of the Holiday Season!
