Decorate with me - Fall Farmhouse/ Vintage Mantel - Using Thrifted Items

 Hi Friends,

Today, I'm easing my mantel into fall.  Using some farmhouse/vintage décor that I have thrifted, the last few months.

I love my black and white gingham garland that stays on the mantel year round. To ease into  fall on my mantel I placed a thrifted copper tin, some books, amber bottle, a crow I've have for many years

A thrifted crock I left the sunflowers found this summer and added pip berries a diy ceramic pumpkins

amber bottles with sunflowers, I left the moss, added a faux pumpkin to the vintage cigar tin

To the left side of the mantel I added a little orange ceramic pumpkin that I gave a face lift to and a copper accent pumpkin I picked up a couple of years ago a thrifted crock with sunflowers and a black crow.

Thank you so much for stopping by.  So until the next time....

May God Bless You and Your Family.

Fall has moved onto my Hutch - Decorate with Me -Thrifted Vintage Décor

 Hi Friends,

I had some time today to add a few fall touches to the top of the hutch, by bringing in a diy pumpkins sign, I made last fall.

 Using Waverly Antiquing wax I added a little weather aging to this faux pumpkin and I harvested some poppy seed pods from my garden and painted them.

A thrifted lunch box and oil can was added to the top of the hutch for some rustic charm.

I need to add a rooster here and there. and I have been collecting amber bottles, my collection is increasing.

I love to add bittersweet, sunflower

black/white check homespun

Harvest-  seeds, wheat  

The wheat is new this year I thrifted two large bundles about a month ago so I added a clump to the large clear jug.

My God Bless You and Your Family!

Buffalo-Check Pumpkin - DIY for Fall Farmhouse Décor

Hi Friends,

 This week I have been obsessed with making Buffalo-Check pumpkins for my Fall décor.

Diy Project, putting my touch to a Dollar Tree pumpkin sign.

I a saw this technique done by one of my favorite you-tuber Tracy at Country Charm by Tracy she used paper to cover her pumpkin signs.

Using a couple of the Dollar Tree pumpkin sign, I painted them all with white chalk paint two coats 

then using masking tape I marked out where to make the black stripes going vertical then horizontal; the come out with this checker board pattern.

I add a few burlap leaves, raffia, jute string and a couple of silk yellow leaves to the stem and wa.. la..

Here is how I displayed the pumpkin sign in my Fall decor.

Thank you for stopping by, until the next project.

Believe in yourself, Vicki

DIY Yarn Pumpkin Garland

Old string garland refreshed.

I made these string garland a couple of years ago out out orange yarn, yeah I know pretty lazy looking project but the grand-kids enjoyed the craft.

I added strips of burlap ribbon I purchase from Dollar Tree and tied the strip between the yarn pumpkins.

I feel adding the burlap strips added another dimension to the garland.  I like how this project turned out.

Thank you for stopping by,

Hi friends,

The front porch is decorated for Halloween.
