Easy Fall Floral

Hi Everyone, hope you had a great weekend!  

We were busy with Miss Beaux's homecoming dance and a few things around the house.  I was supposed to be recovering from my Sinus Surgery but I'm a hard one to keep down.  Yes, I had it on Thursday and everything went great.  Wish me luck that it works to cure all of these nasty sinus infections.  I know there are a lot of you 

out there with the same symptoms. 

  But let's talk about fun Fall stuff, OK?

 Here's an easy Fall floral arrangement that you can put together in just a few minutes. 

 Who doesn't love that?  

I made this for my Fall Buffet table that I showed you last week.  I chose to make a variated massed arrangement.  You can do this with any kind of flowers that you cut into varying heights.

Materials needed:  I picked out some flowers at Hobby Lobby to put this together. Make sure that you go when everything is Half Off!  It's crazy to buy this stuff at full price!  I chose cattails, some other soft  yellow grass type plant, some some mums and long grass fronds from our yard.

They kind of fluff out after you cut them.  

I just gathered the grasses together and stuck them into some floral foam inside my white ironstone pitcher.  

Layer with the cattails.  Funny (kind of) story.  I left the house to drive my daughter to work and when I came home "Someone" had eaten some of the cattails right out of the bag!  Hmmmmmm, who would do that?

  And why did they pick the MOST expensive plant in the bunch? 

So I had fewer cattails!  But it all worked out. 

Next Layer in the other grasses and scatter the mums around the edges.  

There you go~ Easy Fall Floral.  

Until Next Time,

Beaux Reves,

Fall Decor~Bridging the Season

~Bridging the Season~ 

What does that mean?  Well, it's kind of like your wardrobe, maybe it's not quite fall weather but you don't want to wear bright Summer colors anymore. 

 It's kind of easing into Fall.  

Don't get me wrong!  I Love Fall Decorating!  

I'm just not ready for an explosion of fall leaves, pumpkins and lots of red, golds and greens yet. 

 So, I'm easing into Fall 

starting with my Entry table.

My inspiration

 (cause everyone needs a little inspiration, right?)

 was this chocolate brown and creamy white pumpkin. 

 My good friend gave me this beauty

 for my birthday last week. 

 She really knows what I like!  

Isn't it the cutest?  So of course I had to use it right away.

I searched around in my basement storage/staging area for colors that would compliment the pumpkin.

I wanted to keep it simple and only use cream, beige, green and a touch of the turquoise that runs throughout the main living areas.  

I have this weathered lantern that I placed a floral arrangement into and a grape vine wreath hangs on the edge.

I love the top of the lantern, I think it looks like an acorn top.

This is the cute plate that I got for a steal at Nell Hills during the Summer Sale.  It previously had sea shells and sand in it.  White pumpkins and acorns are taking their place.  

I placed this parsons chair here for now with a few pillows from my pillow stash.  I am working on another chair for this space but Mr. Parson will have to do for now.

I put up my ASCP mirror over the chest and stole a lamp from my buffet table.

Simple, Easy, Bridging the Season Fall Decor!  

Maybe now we will get some almost Fall weather. 

Crossing my fingers in the 97 degree heat!

Until Next Time,

Beaux R'eves,
