H.H. got up bright and early this morning to go out and work on the yard.He turned on the sprinkler system for a couple of hours... then it was time to aerate and seed...sure sign that it is September and almost Fall around here. Reluctant to give up on summer I have conceded to bringing in some Fall touches here and there....
I packed away the shells for now.... pulled out the dried artichokes and pods....
also this year I am crazy about jute twine,string,rope and burlap ribbon..... H.H. just thinks I'm crazy...
who puts string in bowls and platters...
it adds a rustic quality which I am really digging.
they are small changes.... but that will help to ease me into the season.
hope you are having a great "almost Fall" weekend!

P.S. Yesterday while I was forced to go out and shop I found the twin to my lamp with the script shade that I posted about earlier. Twins seperated @ birth have been reunited! Best part, got her on clearance!! They decided to share a room so I moved them both into the dining room on the buffet.
I love the look you have going with the string, etc. Neat!!
ReplyDeleteLike the idea of decorating with twine for fall! I have some decorating my desk! Your lamps look great together!

Love the twin lamps and, of course, you can decorate with balls of string and twine! Doesn't everyone?
ReplyDeleteI love the texture, and tactile feel the twine adds to your rustic Fall scene! Your elegant chairs and candles bring it all up a notch though...very pretty!
ReplyDeleteYour lamps look great as twins!!!
After all of our years of being married my husband has learned that sometimes it doesn't pay to ask why I need certain items to decorate with...:) He just knows it makes me happy!
Mimi, I love using twine and strings to decorate with too. Anything out of the ordinary I say. I love those lamps. I had seen them at Home Goods a while back.
ReplyDeleteHey Mimi, I love your lamps...sadly we have no Home Goods or I would be searching for them too! Glad you found the twin though and your bowl of twine is awesome!!! Deb
