And All at Once Summer Collapsed Into Fall!

 It really has felt like summer collapsed into fall around here! 
I am always glad to see Fall arrive. The temperature and humidity
in Northeast Georgia is wicked during the Summer! 
I am glad that we live somewhere that we get to enjoy
each of the four seasons. 

My inbox has been bursting with ideas to bring
touches of Autumn to your home. The blog world is sharing some 
great ideas to use for October on into November.


If you have window boxes, now is the time to plant 
new annuals  pansies, dusty miller, cabbages are 
all good this time of year! 

It is not to early to start working on arrangements 
for your table. There is no reason you can not
mix real pumpkins and gourds with artificial 
grasses and blooms. 

I thought this was a wonderful idea to use for Thanksgiving. 
Children can help by contributing things they are grateful for 
and also do an earlier pumpkin with Autumn thoughts too! 

This arrangement is gorgeous with the blue hydrangeas! 
If you are like me and yours have already bloomed, it would
be just as lovely with dried hydrangeas in the green and rose color.

There are a lot of things you may have to include
in your table arrangement. Just think outside of the box 
like using a birdhouse! 

If you have never looked at Flowers Magazine, be
sure and take a look at their website.
If you love flowers and beautiful things, this is
a magazine you need to purchase.

Wouldn't you feel welcome at this house!

One of my favorite things I love to use in arrangements
is Seeded Eucalyptus. It is great anytime of year!


What a great idea for a party! Using a pumpkin
as your guest book! 

Not all Fall Designs have to be in yellow, orange and red! 
This wreath is beautiful with it's softer shades!

To wrap things up, let's head outside. Fall is the perfect
time to entertain outside. So keep that in mind for
your next get together. Remember to social distance
and stay 6 feet apart!
