Autumn Inventory

So just a few minutes ago I wrangled my way into the spare room, where things that dont have a home end up. I was taking fall decor inventory....I found 1/10 of it, ugh. There are a few things that I absolutely wanted that I havent found yet, but have one more place to look. Some stuff was never unpacked from years ago, see, we moved from a huge farm house to a tiny one and when there is no place to put things, they dont get unpacked or just get shuffled around in the mess of things. Its un organized to say the least.
Im ready to WELCOME AUTUMN at any point and time that she decides to visit. I nearly brought the box of stuff I found out.......but refrained....maybe by the end of the week Ill do it. Im hopefully going to a PRIMITIVE tent sale this weekend and am hoping for some fall items to purchase cheap
I did find a few crow pics to put on the wall and my orange pipberrys. Pipberrys are my MUST HAVE, CANT LIVE WITHOUT items in any season!
I have a wreath and a sign missing still yet, Im thinking they may be in the closet that I cant get into just yet because there is a matress in the way at the present time.

So....I still need to get....
~clear lights
~more leaves
~tarts and maybe a candle
~material to make some fall pillows

I was reading through old blogs this morning and read one from Thanksgiving last year. You may like to read it, although if your a SPFH SISTER already...youve read it, Im sure. There is also a recipe there I want to make soon...I think its Pumpkin Crunch, maybe. HERES the link!

Well, Im off to clean the kitchen and get dinner started for hubby when he gets home, then maybe take a dip in the pool.....the only thing getting me through the summer right now! Im so over the heat!

Inspiration Gallery

While July the 4th is upon us, the weather is hot and muggy, watermelon is in the fridge and time is spent in the pool......Im thinking of FALL and all its goodness.Ya know..... apple cider, cinnamon rolls, chunky sweaters, comfy jeans, a warm candle light glow in the house, crunching of fallen leaves on the ground and warm cozy throws on the couch , oh, and a good Amish Fiction book to snuggle down with and read.Im anxious for bittersweet, white pumpkins, bright colored mums, pumpkin rolls, a crisp, cool breeze."Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns. "
--George Eliot

Bright colors of orange, yellow, red, rust, burgandy and browns. Im getting ready to swap out my magazines from the spring and summer and start digging out my past fall issues of Country Sampler (all pics in this post came from there) and Country Living.

So even though its blazing hot outside, my mind is else where....about 2 months from now is where it is to be exact.
