Honing the Harvest Decor!

I won this beautiful champagne bucket from Pam at House of Hawthorn.  So I put my wickery pumpkin on it in the Living Room....



I bought the orange pumpkin from Walmart and put it where the wickery one was!  I like the oranges together better....

See still tweaking....but soon we will be putting out the turkey things for November...where does the time go?

Leaf Tablescape



















I put my Leaf Tablescape out.  If you look back to last year I think it is almost identical.  But it is one of my favorites.  I would have loved to have bought the pretty leaf napkins at Walmart...but as I debated whether I should, I told myself I have leaf napkins, and they will just have to work.  Sense won out this time!!  (Don't give me too much credit though, I still WANT them!!)

Chargers, S&P, and dinner plates are from Walmart past...
Centerpiece - QVC past
Leaf glasses - a personal fav! - Kroger and ditto...
Napkin rings were from an estate sale a couple of years ago...
don't remember where the napkins or the leaf plates came from...that's how long it has been...
leaf placemats...in my beloved orange...Kirklands about 3 or 4 years ago...

Well, just look at it this way...there is nothing on this post you need to run out today and find....so, technically, I saved you a trip!!

A Beautiful Day!

My husband had the day off and we went garage sale-ing.  I found some Christmas decor...cuz you KNOW I NEEDED MORE!
This afternoon we went to a gorgeous wedding.  My friend Sally's daughter got married.  Oh, it was so pretty and the bride was stunning.  I was in LOVE with her dress.  She is the sweetest young woman.  I am so happy for her.



 Pictures were taken on my husband's cell phone. 

As I was leaving my friend told me she wanted me to have one of the centerpieces.  I was tickled....she made them herself, along with the bouquet.



Well, it is late, and I am tired from a full day.  Have a great weekend...enjoy the Lord's day and I will talk to you all next week!

Nothing Bundt Cakes!

Last week on the way home from my doctor my husband surprised me with another Groupon find....


Yes, you are correct there should be 12, but how could I wait to get home???



These delicious, absolutely moist, flavorful bits of Heaven are called Bundtinis!

I froze most of them...they told me I could do that....but I am telling you, if you ever get to Scottsdale AZ, you really need to check this place out.  From the individual to stacked like for a wedding cake...

Nothing Bundt Cakes!!

What I did with those little bottles....

You all had some great ideas.  I would love a printers box...but I don't have one and really have no wall to put one.  I wanted to keep then clustered together...so I just used one of my depression clear glass dish, put a paper doily on it and voila...






This is my sewing machine base table....in MY ROOM!  The Diary is fake...don't worry, no secrets available for all to see....

I thought I would show the rest of my Fall decor....this is in the Family room...




And the last pictures are from the Main Bathroom...gotta have Fall in there too!


I am hoping to get my Leaf tablescape done later this week.  I am still enjoying the squirrels and acorns!

Well, that is what is happening here at Thinkin of Home....what about you?

Enjoying some cooler Weather....

Finally!


Put a cute, quick craft together....idea from Pinterest - myblessedlife.net


I have a question for all my decorating divas.  See these little bottles.  They were a gift the first year I was married from my husband.  He used to work 2nd shift and would stop at a grocery store on his way home at times.  They would be marking things down.  I have had these bottles in a box...in a drawer.  I cannot part with them, but I don't know what to do with them.  I don't have any window ledges...and honestly, don't want to just line them up somewhere.  They are so small (about 2 inches) they would get lost in a cloche...so if any of you have any brillant idea out there, I would love to hear it.

I went for a long walk, well, long for me now....listened to the birds chirping...I love that!
Anxious for this weekend....to spend some time outside with my hubby.
Hope you all have a great weekend too!!
