FALLing Behind

I will not cheat on Thanksgiving with Christmas... Although as much as I am ready to get my Christmas decorations up, I must wait until the day after Thanksgiving. It's an unwritten rule in my family. And since this is Thanksgiving week, and I am falling behind because I have yet to show my fall decor, I thought it was about overdue time to post some pictures.

My dining room table is on the small side - pictured above. However, this does not mean it doesn't deserve some decorating love. A simple runner, driftwood, a vase with sticks and a bowl of mixed nuts = instant fall table. 

 Next up, the entryway table. I added some faux pumpkins, a crow, some thrift store books, and free zinnias - found in my backyard. (A post about the asymmetrical wall art hanging above the table is in the works, promise.)

Finally, the mantle. Being a Southern girl from Arkansas, I have a little country/folk in my blood. So, of course, I had to include scarecrows into my fall decorations. And burlap.

That's it, nothing much. Glad I finally got these posted before Thanksgiving. It is almost time to take it all down and decorate for Christmas...and I'm wringing my hands in anticipation.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving. I'm spending mine with the family.
