Turkey Time

So Halloween is put away and Thanksgiving is ready. Since we don't have the family celebration at our house any more, my decorations stay pretty mild and at a minimum. I do still love to have all of the colors, sights and scents of autumn and Thanksgiving around me this month though. Since it took so long to put Halloween away, I haven't gone out actively seeking new decor, so most of what you see will be pretty much as it was last year but with a bit of the usual tweaking.

Let's start in the living room.

I'm loving having this new area to decorate, but as I look at it in photos, I am thinking that mirror is a bit too large. I like it here because it has a bit of a verdi gris finish on the inside edges of the frame and that match the slate floor just perfectly. But, I am also thinking that I might move it into the familyroom after the new year, so we shall see what happens. I am becoming a bit reluctant to moving things as that usually sets off a chain reaction for me and I end up spending a LOT of money before I am done!

The living room is pretty simple and self explanatory. Most of the candles are pumpkin scented, so when they are lit, the room not only takes on a beautiful soft glow, but the welcoming scent of autumn as well. Maybe that's why I am constantly perusing Pinterest for another new pumpkin recipe-guess I need to add the FLAVORS of autumn to my "love list". We will move on soon. Stay tuned.
