CHANGE + Additions

My middle name is 
CHANGE

At least that's when it comes to 
my home decor

So here are a few 
Changes
and 
Additions

to my fall decorations....



 Still re-working my fall center piece
on the dining table

added some darling sunflowers
(From the Dollar Store!!!)



 constantly changing the pumpkin arrangement
(as I find NEW pumpkins)




These silver pumpkins glitzed up my sideboard   

My kitchen shelves even got a touch of FALL

AND THEN

I MOVED ON TO THE SCREENED PORCH.....


More changes......




AND FOR OUR BACKDOOR FRIENDS


a FALL greeting

As the weather slowly changes over the 
next few months, so will my decor!

Every Little Birdie says
 Change is a process
not an event

Lovely Moments

Fall brings CHANGE

Change in the weather, change in our schedules 

For me, it's the time that our Ladies Bible 
Study starts back up

We break for the summer and by fall
I'm in need of a little (ok, maybe a lot) of nourishment from God's Word 

We are studying the book
Looking For Lovely
by Annie Downs

In John 16:33 the Lord tells us
"In this world you will have trouble"

Not you may, but you WILL!

We will all suffer trials and hardships 
at some time in our life

This book is about learning to persevere,
which develops character, which leads to hope
   Read Romans 5:35

and as we go through those difficult times 

we need to look for the lovely
the God moments,
those things that help 
us to hold on and persevere

I'd like to share one of my 
Lovely Moments
this week

   Being able to sit on my screened porch
(Thank you Jesus that it was in the low 70's)
spending time in God's Word
(with the help of a very loving puppy)
and soak up His beautiful creation
(in my own back yard)


 GOD IS GOOD!

 What were your lovelies this week?

Transitioning to FALL

In my last post 
I was dreaming of FALL decorating

I just don't think I'm ready to
go totally FALL yet

B U T

I am doing a little transitioning
in that direction...


First I re-did my centerpiece
including a few cotton stalks

  




And what's a Fall table without a few pumpkins?








Then I changed out the decor
on my side board buffet

The white stand with my hanging creamers was moved
 to the buffet and placed under the glass dome






A small flower arrangement on top of some vintage books
and a couple of small white pumpkins

I added this cute little sign from Big Lots above the buffet





Soon I'll get up in the attic 
and get down my fall decor
THEN
the real FALL decorating will begin.....

Every Little Birdie says
until then I'm slowly transitioning
from summer to fall
