It's beginning to look a lot like fall on Blog-land, but I'm not ready to let go of summer yet. 

On the other hand, I'm quite excited about decorating for Christmas.

I've been slowly working on my fall decorating, trying to get myself all pumped for one of my favorite seasons, and I've even recovered some of my Halloween decorations from my parents' house. 

I would really adore having a mantel or some floating shelves to decorate, but until then....



Cost:
Tablecloth, bed bath & beyond: $11.99 with coupon
Table runner, Walmart burlap, $5.97
Vase, Walmart, $2.97
Branches, free, cut from the bottom of the bush in my backyard
Tray, already owned ($1 at the dollar tree)
Votives, already owned, filled with split peas, red beans, and popcorn, all from Walmart originally, and inspired from this. Orange candle and jute cord** also from Walmart.

**A word on Jute rope/twine: if you get the jute from Walmart or Hobby Lobby, it's probably treated, and if so, it will likely have a very strong gasoline smell. I purchased some Jute from Hobby Lobby and am taking it back because it smells so horrible that I didn't really want it in my house. The Jute I purchased from Walmart  that I used on the fall votives wasn't quite as bad but still had a smell and still, after one year after airing out , smells faintly of gasoline.
