Couldn't resist poking a couple little fake pun'kins on the window sill. I'm talented like that you know! ;)
One more peep at my breakfast hutch! I'm so behind with my Fall decorating and hopefully I can do some more after I get the boxes unpacked. Then where do I put it all? There is less storage in this house and it's about 1,000 square feet smaller but we have a huge basement! Now all of my boxes are in the basement and I'm just unpacking to beat the band but I don't know where to put it all! I guess I've got to go buy more plastic tubs!
Be a bunch of sweeties,
Shelia ;)
I'll leave you with a little Note Song ~
Autumn in New York
Autumn in New York
Why does it seem so inviting?
Autumn in New York
It spells the thrill of first-knighting
Glittering crowds and shimmering clouds
In canyons of steel
They're making me feel
I'm home
It's autumn in New York
That brings the promise of new love
Autumn in New York
Is often mingled with pain
Dreamers with empty hands
May sigh for exotic lands
It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again
Lovers that bless the dark
On benches in Central Park
It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again
Why does it seem so inviting?
Autumn in New York
It spells the thrill of first-knighting
Glittering crowds and shimmering clouds
In canyons of steel
They're making me feel
I'm home
It's autumn in New York
That brings the promise of new love
Autumn in New York
Is often mingled with pain
Dreamers with empty hands
May sigh for exotic lands
It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again
Lovers that bless the dark
On benches in Central Park
It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again

It's looking more and more like home! I know that it must be exhausting, but what fun to have a blank palette to decorate with all your favorite things!
ReplyDeleteHappy Autumn in New York- weekend to you!
I love seeing your sweet little cow creamers. Enjoy your weekend. xo
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how quickly you are pulling your new place together, all the fall decor look fab in the new place. I love to use the same pieces over and over again too.
ReplyDeleteShelia, Love your Fall decorating! That kitchen widow sill is the best place to decorate!! I know what it feels like to have less storage space. You will downsize a little...maybe! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteLinda
Looks like Shelia now!! Love all your falling pieces.........what's wrong with using things over again?? If you love it, use it........we all do the same.....it's good to be frugal. Get some shelving units in that huge basement and load it up with plastic bins, set up a table to work on and you can craft down there too. I keep one entire season on one unit, its good to be organized!!
ReplyDeleteWell, my girl -- glad to see it hasn't taken you long to begin the fluffer-ating of your new home! Even if you are not unpacked.
ReplyDeleteYou've got such a flair for making things pretty!
(Those canisters? I swoon.)
Love, Cass
You are unpacking and getting settled and you have more fall than I do. Looks great, Shelia. Your bay window is wonderful. What a great feature to use for every season. Love your hutch too.
ReplyDeleteLooking good Shelia! I'm glad to see you are getting all your favorite things out and your fall decorating is in motion! I know it's a big job to set up storage but with the basement at least you can have plenty of it! We just re-did the storage area with metal shelf units and clear plastic tubs. I like the clear so I can see what's inside of them, plus I put something on them to describe what's in them. It helps. So happy for you that you are close to your family! Hugs, Liz
ReplyDeleteI think your decor is happy in its new home. Everything looks great!
ReplyDeleteOh Shelia, everything looks wonderful in your new home. Love your window with all the Fall decorations.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend.
Mary
SO pretty Sheila!!!!!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so nice with all your precious belongings!
ReplyDeleteI've been catching up and love your new kitchen. Enjoyed your fall decorating as well, especially your roosterfied hutch.
ReplyDeleteDiana
I cannot believe you've had time to decorate for fall! I knew you would have fun with that windowsill.
ReplyDeleteMy basement is where all of things are stored. My husband built a wall of shelves and I put everything in storage bins. I like Liz's idea of using clear bins so you can see what is inside. A lot of work but it will all get done in time.
Have a great weekend
Jeannette
Hi Jen! Thanks for the advice and I think I need some shelves! :)
DeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia :)
You are sure having fun decorating your new home. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous of that bay window ledge! Not only do you have a pretty view, but that is a wonderful place to decorate seasonally.
ReplyDeleteAutumn, autumn, autumn!
ReplyDeleteA season
Full of great things
A season that brings
Happiness to people
And animals
Autumn, autumn, autumn!
Birds singing
Their morning songs
Praising the lord
For the fruits
Provided in the wild
Autumn, autumn, autumn!
Butterflies flying
All over the gardens
Enjoying the scent
From the flowers
Autumn, autumn, autumn!
Bees buzzing
From flower to flower
Collecting pollen
And making honey
Autumn, autumn, autumn!
Cows mooing
In the forest
Enjoying
The green and fresh grass
Autumn, autumn, autumn!
Children sitting
Around the fire
Eating corn, watermelons,
Sweet reeds and squashes
Autumn, autumn, autumn
A season that is fruitful.
Oh, this was lovely! Thank you so much for popping in with the nice poem!
DeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia :)
Hi Shelia, Your fall kitchen is gorgeous. I love how you have added the harvest look to your hutch with your special treasures. Love the bay window. I know you are having lots of fun. Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteHugs XOXO
Hi Shelia, Love, love all the "fallen". Everything looks so cute. I really like the bay window. Lucky you. And of course your will hutch is gorgeous. You are right back in the swing of things. Bless your heart, you have done so much work. This change for you has been so good. Hugs my friend, Karie
