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.

Primitive Farmhouse DIY Felt Crows

 

Hi Friends,

Today, I'm going to try my hand at constructing a felt crow to add to my late summer décor.

I of course went to Pinterest and found a couple of free patterns and then just kind of made my own.

This is how my crow turned out with this pattern from Crow/Raven Pattern @ Silver Ravenwolf 2013. Minus the wings, because I'm thinking real feather or felt?  not sure yet.

Another felt raven pattern I found was by my3monster.com that had great instructions

This is how they turned out

I used some wire I had  to make feet for both the crows.

Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope I gave you some inspiration to give a new project a try.

So until next time....

My God Bless You and Your Family
