Fall Entrance

I spent a blissful hour browsing in my favourite home decor store the other day.  As I studied their beautiful Fall displays, one item grabbed my attention ~ a pretty red berry garland.  It made me remember that my sister-in-law had given me some earlier this year. {Thanks, Lorrie!}  I immediately began to plot and plan how I could build an arrangement for our entryway table around it.

Come on in and I’ll show you how it turned out~

The main sign was inspired by my sign making hero Aimee Weaver {you can see her amazing signs here}.

The frame of it is an old window, and the right side is painted to be a chalkboard. I found a great product that I love painting on for the sign itself.  {I’ll try to do a tutorial for it soon.}

I fell in love with this rusty little bin of drawers in a recent junking treasure hunting escapade.  The antique glass insulators (on top) were found there, too…  You know, “one person’s trash is another’s treasure!”

A bag of ornamental gourds from the grocery store and an original painting ($1.00 at a thrift store!) added a few pops of color.

And, of course, I always love to add a little “sentimental” to every arrangement.  This wool blanket is monogrammed with my Grandpa’s name on it.  My Grandma gave it to him for Christmas one year…
