Fall Tour Dining Room, Sun Room and Breakfast Room

I'm back to welcome you to tour the dining, breakfast, and sun rooms.

Lots of photos.
Please relax and enjoy!

Dining Room

I decided to use the bird fabric for a runner rather than a wall hanging. Here it grounds the tiered stand laden with autumn pumpkins, stems, and corn.

This arrangement sits on a tall hand made/painted stool. The pottery depicts southwestern scenes. The colors blend in with the other fall decor.

The side table is decked out for fall.

Fall on the bookcase.

Breakfast Room

Apothecary jar filled with ceramic pumpkins.

Mr. Rooster looks proud in his fall colors.

More autumn color.

Here is the arrangement for the breakfast table.
I got this dough bowl on Ebay. I was a little disappointed in the size of it , but it's good for decorating.

Sun Room

I removed the sea shells and turquoise items from the wire basket, and added acorns purchased at Kirkland's last year. The wire pumpkins are place card holders. The sun is casting shadows on the table this morning.

Faux acorns also fill this Ball jar.

Hope you have enjoyed sharing the fall decor at Shadymont.

Thrifty Bookcase Makeover

About a year ago, I was working on a photo gallery area at the lake home. There is an area about 7x7 between the living room, and the hall bath. I bought a really inexpensive ($20.00) bookcase to use there to hold family photos. I hurriedly placed photos on it, and didn't think much about it. The last time we were at the lake, I was sitting there looking at how badly it looked, wondering what I could do to spruce it up a little. It had all colors/types of picture frames -red, pink floral, wood, brass, you name it! I remembered seeing adhesive shelf liner at the Dollar General the day before. So I made a quick trip back there, and bought one 9 ft. roll for less than $3.00. I know this is not an original idea and has been done by lots of people, but I wanted to show you anyway. First, I emptied out all the photos, pulled out the shelves, measured, and cut the paper to fit inside the bookcase. I also took all the photos out of the frames and w...

Stenciled Burlap Pillow

I just have to share my no sew pillow project. I had some burlap fabric in my fabric stash, and decided I would use it to cover a pillow. First, I found an old pillow I no longer use. I spread the burlap out on the floor and laid my pillow on it so I could cut the fabric big enough to cover it. I was so intent on the project, I didn't make any pictures of the process. Once the burlap was cut, I folded in the sides about an inch, and glued it down with Tacky Glue, pressing it down several times with my fingers. I did this all the way around the fabric, and laid it aside to dry over night. The Tacky Glue dries clear. My next step was to determine how I could lap the fabric over the cushion in an envelope fashion. I had tried to get my computer to print out a graphic that would show up on the burlap, but printer problems interfered with that plan, so I found the center, and stenciled it with the tree stencil I bought at Michael's. ...
