Back At Home ,Welcome











Back at home from a short trip out of town trip.You are welcome to come into our home. I forgot that there was a scarecrow being lazy on a bale of hay guarding the gate into our yard. Don't worry, he won't frisk you. Walking towards our house you can see the trees just beginning to change in color with leaves of orange, red,and gold. Be careful walking,there are leaves and fallen acorns on the driveway. You can hear the crunching sound of the acorns as you walk. I, guess we need to do some sweeping. Our welcome mat is partially covered with leaves. Where is the housekeeper when you need them? Don't mind the several scarecrows on a bale of hay, they won't bother you. Let's go inside of our house. Did some decorating,but I didn't over do it. I, didn't want to feel like a party pooper. We have two fireplace mantels, one in the living room as well as one in the dining room. The mantel in the living room,has candles, orange-gold leaves and a sweet figurine standing on a cart. Do you think she will use the cart and leave the mantel? Let's open the French doors into the dining room. Couldn't resist decorating the mantel. Love using burgundy candles, with greenery wrapping around our old antique clock and cute contented girl hold a basket with squash and surprising not dead flowers. Soon time will pass and the mantels will be decorated with Christmas items. I, enjoy decorating our dining room table. On the table, you will notice dinnerware that have a turkey design with leaves. I, love a bargain. I, bought an eight piece setting for twenty dollars at an indoor flea market. Candles are a must item on our table as well as those pilgrim people. My husband often tells me we have too many candles. No woman can have too many candles to decorate the house. Oh!, I forgot, I have an appointment and have to end our tour. Soon I'll be decorating for Christmas and will invite you back to our home. Best wishes for a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving. God Bless. Rose

  5. Hi Rose, I've been wondering where you were... Your Thanksgiving/Harvest decorations are gorgeous... The china is gorgeous... I have Christmas plates, but not Thanksgiving.

    I will probably decorate for Christmas right after Thanksgiving. I don't like to do it too early...

    Thanks for the tour. Your home is gorgeous.
    Hugs,
    Betsy

  8. Welcome back! How nice that you still have leaves that are changing...ours have long since fallen and are raked away! I love the china and what a good bargain..your home is lovely and I bet your Christmas decorations will be beautiful too. I'm not a big candle person, but I would have different sets of dishes for everyday if I had the space to store them and the moola to buy them!

  18. Two fireplaces - lucky lady. The dishes are lovely and yes, I am wondering if you have china for all the seasons. Isn't it fun to do a little decorating; and at this time of year it seems to add a little color and warmth to the house, especially as the leaves all drop off and we begin to ease into winter.

  19. What do you mean the Scarecrow won't frisk me?? I've been single forever I might enjoy some attention from a Scarecrow! Probably has more brains than my ex-husband!

    Your house is so adorable! Great decorating Rose!!

  20. I'm glad you had a safe trip. It's always nice to get away.
    Can't help but notice the white fence behind the scarecrow. So envious. I think most women for some reason dream of having a white picket fence around their home.
